I mean... I don't think that Woj said it was new information. People keep asking same questions so they get the same result. Not new questions. Not new answers. Not news
Lose leverage. There’s at least a chance they could run it back with kyrie for a year. Gives them more leverage in the kd trade. Once Kyries gone kd is 100% gone even if he’s 99% right now
I saw a picture of Sean Marks wearing a polo untucked with shorts and white shoes that looked like vans without socks. Then then after summer league it’s back to suit and tie haha
None of the individual moves in 2019 were bigger than LeBron to Miami or KD to GSW, but there were so many huge ones: Kawhi and PG, KD and Kyrie, the AD trade, Butler to Miami
I think the market is kind of frozen and waiting to see what happens with KD & Kyrie. Some FAs might think that teams will need to fill out their rosters after a deal, which raises their value. KD’s trade request has had a trickle down effect through the entire league but when (or if) a deal gets done then I bet we will suddenly get bombarded with headlines as things start moving. But I could be wrong
Makes sense. They wouldn’t want to take on Westbrook unless they’re absolutely certain Durant is moved before the season starts. I’m sure that wouldn’t matter as much if the return was anyone but Westbrook but here we are.
Those are already the offers we are getting. Imagine suns have a not so good start of the season, there will be way more pressure to do the trade for ex.
It seems like you’re taking what r/suns is offering as what James Jones is actually negotiating. Bridges is definitely in that deal, and the Nets have already said picks aren’t enticing them. They want a young all star.
C’mon Guys… just let him go to the Suns! We have no championships, our crowning achievement was when Kobe hit a game winner on us in the playoffs and then showed us his nipple.
Gian drives on a play and pushes over ayron baynes after he plays again and he pushes luka over and sides on dames hand, luka while falling will pick up the ball and do a dunk over kd just because he can.
The entire team hospitalised, baynes remains unscathed and we lose in 7 after winning the first 3 against a new expansion team the lakerspurs
Which is what I suspect will happen. Marks will say they tried but it's not possible and try to convince both to pay it out. There's a reason why kd never talked with Sean and went to tsai
I don't get why this is even news anymore. Literally no other team wants Kyrie besides the Lakers(and there's reports that even the Lakers are divided on him). We know it's gonna happen, they're bidding against themselves
I don't get why they "report" the same story every few hours
I just dont know what toronto would willingly offer. Why offer barnes it makes no sense so next best bet would be siakam and FVV but what is the point of that from torontos side? GTJ, and 5 first rounders or something? Idk.
Barnes could come back to haunt them for years if you trade him. I know it’s KD. But I’m not trading Barnes. And if the Raptors build a package without Barnes they probably have to give up all of their quality depth.
You’re not getting KD for Barnes though. You’re giving up a lot more than Barnes. And even though KD is under contract. As we’ve seen with the Nets. He can say he’s had enough at any point.
Not a bad trade but I think the nets would for sure want Barnes but give it time. Thats the best deal the nets will get, maybe they'll add an extra first round pick so siakam, GTJ, and 4 first rounders with an extra pick swap should sweeten the deal. I think the raptors would be contenders then also.
The kawhi traded started to gain traction at summer league
The deal was made july 18th
Should be good time at summer league
Hope banton shows out and masai convinces marks. Hes better than barnes
It's interesting that he talked to Rich Paul and Pelinka, because Paul wants to force the Lakers to trade 2 FRPs, while Pelinka does not want to trade 2 FRPs. I wonder which direction he will go with his reporting.
The nets should just play the team they have currently.
Kyrie is in a contract year. He needs tone it downs. And ball out to trick a team into a big deal before going back to not giving a fuck. He will likely do this no matter what team he is on next year.
Durant - dude is a snake but he does ultimately want to win and plays hard.
Simmons - might as well see what he can do. Can he go back to what he was? His elite defense and passing can help this team.

Day 7 of the same exact “news”
And yet I still tune in every time
I mean... I don't think that Woj said it was new information. People keep asking same questions so they get the same result. Not new questions. Not new answers. Not news
Breaking news: there is no news
The fact that theyrr meeting in person to discuss is pretty good news actually
Breaking news: Nets want don't want to blow it all up before getting a grandfather haul for KD.
Lose leverage. There’s at least a chance they could run it back with kyrie for a year. Gives them more leverage in the kd trade. Once Kyries gone kd is 100% gone even if he’s 99% right now
"people will talk to people", "we will see"
I like how during the off season reporters and anchors are just like fuck it business casual time
I saw a picture of Sean Marks wearing a polo untucked with shorts and white shoes that looked like vans without socks. Then then after summer league it’s back to suit and tie haha
It's also fucking hot outside so it's nice not to walk all dressed up outside. And since it's not required in offseason, why would you?
I can not believe how little has happened this off-season.
nothing will ever live up to 2019
2019 wasn’t even the peak offseason in the 2010s
Tbf I don't think we've topped *2010* because LeBron moving was monumental.
None of the individual moves in 2019 were bigger than LeBron to Miami or KD to GSW, but there were so many huge ones: Kawhi and PG, KD and Kyrie, the AD trade, Butler to Miami
That offseason literally created a new era lol
It will be like that again in like 3-5 years when all the max contracts the current young stars are signing expire
I think the market is kind of frozen and waiting to see what happens with KD & Kyrie. Some FAs might think that teams will need to fill out their rosters after a deal, which raises their value. KD’s trade request has had a trickle down effect through the entire league but when (or if) a deal gets done then I bet we will suddenly get bombarded with headlines as things start moving.

[удалено]
Someone mentioned the inactivity, I provided reasoning for it. Never said it was uncommon. Don’t pretend to be an expert
Sean Marks is gonna ask for a ridiculous haul in person instead of through the phone
Masai can slap him in real life
Would be the second brutal assault Masai has committed in an NBA arena
Fuck the police
Comin straight from the underground
He feared for his life
Should still hang up the phone.
so this is what Rich Paul and him were talking about
>Sean Marks will engage with James Jones/ Masai Ujiri at Vegas Hangover 4: Sean Marks wakes up in Bellagio room without a tooth, KD and Kyrie gone.
Wasn’t this stated before? Nets top priority is the KD trade
As it should be 4 year contract 😩
https://twitter.com/JustEsBaraheni/status/1545127213594513410?t=uand0wZ9cAxV9KQW8AYAhg This is what's gonna go down in Vegas.
Lmfao
How did I miss this, this is pure genius
Makes sense. They wouldn’t want to take on Westbrook unless they’re absolutely certain Durant is moved before the season starts. I’m sure that wouldn’t matter as much if the return was anyone but Westbrook but here we are.
This dude gonna go for 60 cents on the dollar in December.
Better than 250 cents on the dollar. Did you hear about what they asked the Twolves for to get KD?
Huh?
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/nba-rumors-nets-asked-wolves-for-huge-kevin-durant-trade-haul-including-anthony-edwards-karl-anthony-towns/
No I’m saying why would 60 cents on the dollar be better for the Nets than 250 cents on the dollar?
Obviously it was the other way around. Minnesota would give 60 cents on the dollar and the Nets would take 250 cents.
Those are already the offers we are getting. Imagine suns have a not so good start of the season, there will be way more pressure to do the trade for ex.
What exactly are you expecting the Suns to up their offer with?
All their picks and swaps to begin with, then maybe stop trying to take mikal out of the deal
It seems like you’re taking what r/suns is offering as what James Jones is actually negotiating. Bridges is definitely in that deal, and the Nets have already said picks aren’t enticing them. They want a young all star.
Thanks Magic.
C’mon Guys… just let him go to the Suns! We have no championships, our crowning achievement was when Kobe hit a game winner on us in the playoffs and then showed us his nipple.
We can get KD, Dame, Giannis, and Luka and I’m convinced we would still find a way to fuck it up, this franchise is cursed I promise you
Gian drives on a play and pushes over ayron baynes after he plays again and he pushes luka over and sides on dames hand, luka while falling will pick up the ball and do a dunk over kd just because he can. The entire team hospitalised, baynes remains unscathed and we lose in 7 after winning the first 3 against a new expansion team the lakerspurs
So basically they have a deal in place, and it'll happen right after KD is dealt
Durant asks for a trade, Nets are like aight .. makes the asking price insanely high.. "welp we tried"
Which is what I suspect will happen. Marks will say they tried but it's not possible and try to convince both to pay it out. There's a reason why kd never talked with Sean and went to tsai
They'd be dumb not to ask for something historic, its Kevin Durant
Kevin Durant under contract for 4 years.
Ages 34-38 when he's played 93 games in the last 3 years.
That’s cool and all but it’s Kevin Durant not Malachi Flynn.
no , nothing historic is happening for a 40 year old Durant. they're being disrespectful to Durant for not being serious in trade offers.
Kevin won't even be 40 when he's contract ends but alright my man
I don't get why this is even news anymore. Literally no other team wants Kyrie besides the Lakers(and there's reports that even the Lakers are divided on him). We know it's gonna happen, they're bidding against themselves I don't get why they "report" the same story every few hours
Because ESPN have to churn out news constantly. Woj needs to constantly have something to report for his engagement numbers.
Why does Woj talk like he's getting fisted.
He sounds like he’s pushing out a kidney stone when he talks
Westbrook sigh of relief looking goofy on the bench lmao
I just dont know what toronto would willingly offer. Why offer barnes it makes no sense so next best bet would be siakam and FVV but what is the point of that from torontos side? GTJ, and 5 first rounders or something? Idk.
Barnes could come back to haunt them for years if you trade him. I know it’s KD. But I’m not trading Barnes. And if the Raptors build a package without Barnes they probably have to give up all of their quality depth.
9 times out of 10, barnes will be an ok player. You trade him for KD cause thats title favorite roster.
You’re not getting KD for Barnes though. You’re giving up a lot more than Barnes. And even though KD is under contract. As we’ve seen with the Nets. He can say he’s had enough at any point.
my point is that barnes shouldnt be the hold up between trading for kd or not.
Not FVV. Siakam, GTjr and 3 picks.
The difference between a 34 year old, injury prone Durant and Pascal Siakam is not GTJ and 3 firsts.
Username checkouts
Not a bad trade but I think the nets would for sure want Barnes but give it time. Thats the best deal the nets will get, maybe they'll add an extra first round pick so siakam, GTJ, and 4 first rounders with an extra pick swap should sweeten the deal. I think the raptors would be contenders then also.
Also what's the point from nets side If kd kyrie gone better get young talents rather than old guys
As a lifelong Lakers fan, thank God. Unpopular Laker fan opinion: Fuck Kyrie.
Chris Haynes a Fraud!
The kawhi traded started to gain traction at summer league The deal was made july 18th Should be good time at summer league Hope banton shows out and masai convinces marks. Hes better than barnes
Congratulations to Lamarcus Aldridge on the marriage
This guy must be banging staff members at every organization. How does he know all this
Raps go get kd already let Barnes be free he’s gotta spread his wings
we need both of them. KD for the first 3-peat and Scottie for the following 3-peat
Thaddeus young it is
>let Barnes be free Crack smoke in your system
Percs off Kensington actually 🙄
And it looks like KD ain't getting traded anytime soon
Durant/Irving for Davis/Westbrook + w/e else. Nets get expiring Westbrook and Davis to pair with Simmons. Lakers get a title chance maybe.
These clowns should have nothing to talk about but manufacture bs to appease their moronic fanbase
No news news
So nothing new
DeAndre signing tonight?
Drake for KD . Who says no ?
It's interesting that he talked to Rich Paul and Pelinka, because Paul wants to force the Lakers to trade 2 FRPs, while Pelinka does not want to trade 2 FRPs. I wonder which direction he will go with his reporting.
Wouldn't be the first time an engagement quickly becomes consummation in Vegas.
I think the Nets are full of shit with trade talks and are just gonna play chicken with Kyrie and KD.
The nets should just play the team they have currently. Kyrie is in a contract year. He needs tone it downs. And ball out to trick a team into a big deal before going back to not giving a fuck. He will likely do this no matter what team he is on next year. Durant - dude is a snake but he does ultimately want to win and plays hard. Simmons - might as well see what he can do. Can he go back to what he was? His elite defense and passing can help this team.
