    The bubble worked so well, I was hoping the NBA would have good policies in place to mostly stop the spread, but I can't fathom why they thought it would be ok for players to have random people in their rooms like these players wouldn't test positive.

    welp thats it.

    i cant defend the dude anymore.

    not only is his attitude horrible, but hes not even trying out there. his stats reflect that

    i dont care if he comes up with another great line next game.

    ive seen enough.

    He has a loser mentality, you can see it on the court when he doesn’t have the ball in his hands, he just stands around. He could be a third guy on a title team, or maybe the 2nd guy next to a top 5 player, but much less and he just can’t get it done. As much as it pains me to say even Chris Paul was the one that drove that team that came within a game of the Finals, was the real guy who was the main reason they were about to get that far. It’s a waste more than anything though, because his talent is good enough for him not to have to pull all the antics, and if he just tried harder all around and kept himself in better shape I wouldn’t knock on him as much as I do. You can see in how he shows up to camp how much he truly cares, the truly great ones don’t come in like that.

    Kyrie for Harden swap needs to happen. I think the Nets wouldn't mind giving up 2 picks too. Houston isn't in any rush to compete either

    Issue is Kyrie Irving is a piece of s***. Trading your franchise schmuck for a guy who would destroy your team with his BS, no way Houston does that.

    The best and only place is Boston. Jaylen Brown, Kemba Walker and 2-3 first round picks. That's the deal that should go down. Boston gets rid of Kemba's contract and his aging knee, they have to give up Jaylen but you have to give something up and then those useless picks that Danny loves so much. Tatum and Harden in the weak East could go to the Finals. If for some reason Houston doesnt want Kemba, switch it to Marcus Smart.

    Yeah, Kyrie is a head case. They don't want any of that. Who knows what'll happen? I'll tell you this though Harden is a wuss. He doesn't play D, the franchise has catered to his every whim and yet it's all their fault and they aren't good enough? Such a diva. They were going to pay him $50 million a year!! What a joke. For a guy who can't get you past the second round of the playoffs.

    I still think the best trade for both teams would have been Simmons with the 76ers. Not sure they still can get that though with Philly playing well and maybe wanting to see how they do with what they have. Why break it up now?

    Wouldn’t blame him for Putting up with Harden.

    Pretty sure he’s speaking about Harden though not himself unfortunately.

    Any trade for Kyrie Irving would be a disaster. At least Harden suits up and still gives you 25/6/6 every game. What's Kyrie Irving doing? He's on his period or something.


    Kinda crazy Kyrie can just get excused, go out and party during peak COVID, then get on a conference call about social activism. This dude is straightup a wacko.

    LeBron's greatest achievement isn't helping the Cavs and Lakers win a title. It isn't him helping to open a school nor is it the great things he does do for his community. It's the fact that he was able to keep Kyrie on a leash when they were together. We didn't hear anything about Kyrie being a problem in the Cavs until Kyrie demanded a trade... That's LeBron's greatest achievement. Lakers fans thought it was LeBron causing the problems there but I'm glad there is a universal agreement that Kyrie is just a nutjob.

    This is the trade that should happen. I'm actually baffled as to why it hasn't. Does Ainge honestly think the C Bags can win a title with his roster?

    Yes, please, don’t send him to Brooklyn to pair with Kylie and Durant, that’s what he wants.

    No idea how credible this guy is, but I like what he’s saying because it’s fun. Anyone who chooses to play with Kyrie gets what they deserve, same as if they chose to go to the Clippers.
