they haven’t said yet but it seems to be a family related issue based on stuff ppl have been saying on heat broadcasts … “we wish kyle and his family the best” etc

kyrie has 41 at the half

he’s really on one

KAT setting the season high for points and then getting passed literally one day later would feel very… KAT-ish
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 March 2022 00:34 (two years ago) link
kyrie only has one point in the second half so far tho i turned it on looking for some buckets
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 00:35 (two years ago) link
he got one
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 00:39 (two years ago) link
maybe he wouldve always been this good if he only had to play 15 games a year

Man some of these team point totals lately would make Paul Westhead blush

nasty drive and finish for 50

the great thing about these kyrie scoring binges is they have no reason to sit him regardless of how much they’re up or how bad the opponent is

55 10mins to go

theyre sitting him what cmon

Nets with 140 with half a period to play. 64% shooting!
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 01:15 (two years ago) link
Nets playing just bad enough during the year to lose all homecourt advantage= crazy like a fox?
― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 08:24 (two years ago) link
its def to their benefit but theres still no way theyre winning four series with kyrie missing all their home game
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 15:34 (two years ago) link
now if the mandate is lifted the situation might work out in their favor as kyrie stayed healthy by barely playing
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 15:35 (two years ago) link
what abt the simmons situation tho lot of moving pieces lol

all you can do is pray
Steve Nash said he’s “very hopeful” that Ben Simmons will play this regular season. #nets— Brian Lewis (@NYPost_Lewis) March 15, 2022

great trade
― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 16 March 2022 16:50 (two years ago) link
at the least they got two useful starters/rotation players out of it for this season (plus two picks)
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 17:15 (two years ago) link
real solid slate of games tonight. espn got dubs/celts and mavs/nets (no kyrie)

Nash says Simmons got an epidural while the Nets were in Orlando. The hope is that it will make his back start to feel better and he will be able to do more moving forward.— Nick Friedell (@NickFriedell) March 16, 2022

wtf
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 21:57 (two years ago) link
in john hollinger’s column this week he said that simmons back injury was “real” and my thought was “what does that mean and where is that coming from” but there’s no reason to have a fake epidural
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 March 2022 21:59 (two years ago) link
yikes, also now even weirder that they leaned on the mental health stuff when he could've just been like hey my back is crazy jacked up

ESPN reporting with @RamonaShelburne: Brooklyn Nets All-Star Ben Simmons has remained sidelined with an irritation of the L-4 disc of the lower spine and hope remains he can return for a “couple” of regular-season games prior to the Eastern Conference playoffs. Story soon.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) March 16, 2022
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:13 (two years ago) link
Is it possible that he passed up the easy dunk last year because he was playing through a back injury?
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:21 (two years ago) link
is this new? would they have traded him if they knew?
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:22 (two years ago) link
that’s my thought too spottie. i think they prob still would’ve done the trade anyway but you do think we would’ve heard about it prior to this week if it had been from earlier this season
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:25 (two years ago) link
yea this is nuts
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:28 (two years ago) link
sounds like he still might play next week though
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Wednesday, 16 March 2022 22:36 (two years ago) link
edit: next month

luka going off

great story from pasch about luka staring down paul pierce (in good fun) after hitting the first shot of the game in boston

ESPN just showed some 3D metaverse highlights that were completely hideous

Lakers 17 p first q and 0-10 from three
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Thursday, 17 March 2022 00:47 (two years ago) link
Luka was cooking. This reminds me so much of the post cp harden rockets. The ball is in lukas hands for like 90-95% of every offensive possession.
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Thursday, 17 March 2022 00:49 (two years ago) link
No matter what happens to the Sixers, I'm going to laugh if the Nets just signed off on Simmons' medicals because they just assumed he was faking it for salary dispute until a trade could be had. That would be terrible.

its no way to play basketball imho

i dunno he’s so fucking good
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 17 March 2022 01:22 (two years ago) link
he’s way more fun to watch than harden ever was imo. he’s a much more varied scorer
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 17 March 2022 01:23 (two years ago) link
hes def extremely good but ultimately i think its just not a sound way to play
― lag∞n, Thursday, 17 March 2022 01:28 (two years ago) link
if it tires him out in the playoffs every time then no

― J0rdan S., Thursday, 17 March 2022 01:31 (two years ago) link
besides the exhaustion aspect which is major its just also too predictable you need to have different looks to keep the defense guessing and lukas always operating against a set D which is unnecessarily hard seems like a no brainer to at least run some actions for him before he receives the ball to get him in better spots
