2019 nba OFFSEASON news, rumors, drama, and recriminations

kd to nets rumors percolating a bit too. i am trying not to get excited by the idea.

That would be much cooler than the knicks

Yeah, the all-black jerseys really suit the KD/Kyrie moodiness. This needs to happen.

Brooklyn is trading Allen Crabbe and No. 17 pick in 2019 NBA Draft and protected first in 2020 to Atlanta for Taurean Prince and 2021 second-round pick, league sources tell ESPN.

clearing cap

so now atl has THREE first rounders to play with this year (8, 10, 17) and a conditional pick next year. all they gotta do is pay allen crabbe too much money for one year.

bk gets a decent young player in prince and clears enough salary off their books to sign two max spots. kind of a win-win if brooklyn can get two big names.

hmm wonder who those name s could be

I’m told that Kyrie Irving was indeed at the 40/40 club with a few Brooklyn Nets players last night, including Caris LeVert, Jared Dudley, Theo Pinson and Alan Williams. #Nets

it's happening

doesnt seem like a great fit for him rosterwise but dont think thatd stop him

ya gotta roll the dice, this is why ya pay the game

for sure

wonder what atl is gonna do with all those picks, cant imagine that theyd wanna have three rookies, but they do have a lot of roster needs

just thinking about kyrie and kd and the ny media my god

stephen a vindicated once again

if kd doesnt play in the finals and the warriors lose then he leaves ppl gonna be asking him about it day one.....

gonna be more losers than winners, and brow is on the block too, crazy

Knicks have 2 max slots. Nets have 2 max slots. Clippers have a path to get 2 max slots. Lakers have a max slot plus the No. 4 pick & assets to make major move.

Get ready.

nets picking up the top two guys while the knicks sign harrison barnes is predictably funny

the knicks think they're getting kd Kyrie and Zion but they're gonna get boogie butler and ja

ha i was weirdly almost right except theyd kill for this group now.

theyre gonna get boogie, rj, and thad young

*writes notes* clearing...cap space...doesn't...work when...better teams...do it...too

i will say that even tho the nets roster doesnt look perfect for just plugging in two superstars at least its mostly young guys w live legs

and a coach/gm who seem to know what theyre doing!

true

prince tbf seems like a good complimentary player

he is, good to see him going to a competitive team

Hawks are trying to move up. They’ve already made it clear they didn’t want a bunch off rooks in training camp

when was the last time preemptively clearing cap space actually worked out

celtics signing hayward?

san antonio's own and warren hs (my brother used to be a teacher there) grad taurean prince btw xps

More teams should try to sign the mediocre hoisting pals of superstars on their wishlist.

seems possible the nets have everything in place tho aka tampering

#legalizetampering

but not for Knicks/Lakers

#legalizenoncoastaltampering

if their plan is to sign kyrie and max out d'angelo russell..... bleh

their plan is to sign kyrie and kd i think

trade russell mb

kyrie and kd, but failing that, kyrie and middleton or someone else as their #2. cant imagine theyd max out DLo and kyrie

i think the hawks really like barrett and are trying to entice the knicks with a bunch of picks

but yeah russell and kyrie is a bad combo, theyd be getting torched nightly

if kyrie and KD team up in brooklyn dolan should be forced to sell the knicks

i just can't see middleton leaving

yeah i cant either, but bucks ownership might get skittish about paying all these people who are due some raises

nets also giving up a lottery protected 1st rnd pick for next year

if BN sign kyrie they are not bring back russell. russell is buds with devin booker i think he wants to go there.

its nice nba players all want to be with their friends now

its cuet. lebron started it

picking up taurean prince seems pretty dece tho

i think the hawks really like barrett and are trying to entice the knicks with a bunch of picks

i wonder who they like. i think that would be a lot of capital wasted on barrett.
