    Thing is, he'll 100% bolt from teams like Jazz/Spurs this summer.

    This is why relationships are important. Wonder if Mitch will help us out

    Good deal. That could work for everyone involved.

    Interesting the connection with Ott and Harris.


    Dallas - Kyrie

    Suns - Kyrie
    Heat - Kyrie

    Knicks and Jazz have discussed a deal

    Why do I have a feeling we're gonna get blue balled again and Kyrie just ends up signing an extension with the Nets when it's all said and done?

    I know the Nets don’t want Russ, but does anyone else think he‘s a decent fit there? Assuming we do Russ/Walker/2 FRPs for Kyrie/Harris:

    Russ/Mills
    Curry/Walker/Thomas
    O’Neal/Watanabe
    KD/Warren
    Claxton/Simmons

    They’ve got a P&R big in Claxton and plenty of shooting to space the floor. Russ and Simmons obviously don’t work together but I think it would be pretty easy to stagger them.

    Russ and Simmons on the same team is comedy gold.

    I think it’s much more about SlimSoftie not wanting to play with the disaster known as Russ than the Nets.

    I was under the impression that they’ve kind of patched things up on a personal level, although yeah he’s probably not eager to share the court with him again.

    The funniest outcome if we are all honest is that the Nets win the chip with Russ lol.

    i think it's about the third team. bkn doesn't want russ, so we're depending on someone else to help out.

    mitch is definitely a guy who could help us here.

    also depends on how hard kyrie is pushing for here. nobody has mentioned the clippers as interested, which is weird to me. they can offer bkn playable players (powell/covington/jackson) and an unprotected 1st and get him to la. also, they'd love to block our move; it's what they live for over there.

    edit: lol azn and i sharing a brain for a second.

    Yeah, they might be cool as friends again, but Russ is the same dude when it comes to his major weaknesses on the court.

    I hope that we actually don’t drag Russ when he plays LA in the future. That dude went through hell here man.
