    Someone on a Ringer podcast said the Lakers thrive when chaos hits and that makes sense.




    Every star you got to think LA in the mix because of location and the ability to pay a star.
    Even if the Lakers don't get Kyrie this should help with another move like Toronto taking suitors aways from them

    I would hope that Rob is also remaining in talks with multiple other teams, depth can likely still be had for Russ and a pick and Bev/Walker and a pick with 2 different teams. There’s a chance this is once again a leverage play by Kyrie to get his max money from the Nets by using us as a threat again. We can’t go to the trade deadline wanting this and then it doesn’t happen and we’re left screwed again same as we were this off-season with Kyrie. I’d still have to think there’s a Utah or Charlotte deal to be had for Russ, and a Toronto or Detroit deal to be had for Bev.

    Exactly! Let’s not get Kawhi’d again before the trade deadline. Keep all options on the table.

    …seems like this would make the locker room a little awkward if no trade happens

    There were 4 or 5 different people on these sports shows, an hr ago, saying that his agent(aunt) was telling reporters two weeks ago, that if Brooklyn didn't get his extension done, that they were leaving the Nets. Now they've been caught off guard?

    Kyrie is such a douche: amazing basketball player but come on at least let the dude you partnered with know

    That would be a BS contract negotiating tactic by the Nets if true.
