Kyrie Irving opts in.... Will stay with Nets

[iamduval]

That agreement will definitely be in place. That's why I think it ha;pens. Plus Bron can get Nike to patch things up with Kyrie and give him a new shoe deal (if Kyrie wants that)

I forgot all about that nike shyt. Damn this is deep.

This is a terrible mistake nets are making

Definitely..especially getting absolutely nothing in return …what a disastrous event that would be …don’t understand why they won’t just offer him a max on short term years

They need to at least be competitive until they get they draft picks back then rebuild, but you should want kd to retire with the nets

You nikkas live in a fantasy world

KD for Zion

Or a 3-way where KD goes to another team but Brooklyn gets Zion

 

[G-Zeus]

feels like it's Bron that about to take a salary cut..

i mean he just hit a billy... what's doing a KD on the warriors for a season worth to him?

Okay so help me out for a second.

Let’s say the Nets move off of KD & Kyrie but they stink, stink bad enough to pick #1 next year, who ends up with Victor Wembanyama or Scoot Henderson? Cause the Nets don’t own that pick right?

 

[Hypris]

Simmons, Ayton, and Bridges would be a nice defensive team if KD was traded to Phoenix.

They would still need a shot maker though.

Don't the bird rights extension restrictions only apply if the team is over the salary cap? Lakers have less than $60M in salary on their books for 2023-24.

Actually you’re right I was missing the expired contracts next year …as long as LeBron is willing to not extend this summer they’ll be able to use cap space to offer Kyrie a deal and then max LeBron using his bird rights this shyt might get interesting lol


*only thing that will be a problem is LeBrons cap hold ..it’s like 50 million dollars which is essentially like a salary cap place holder teams are forced to adhere to when it comes to using players bird rights …they’d have to let LeBron become a free agent then resign him and Kyrie both at deals that will probably less than max (don’t know how realistic that is)

 

[staticshock]

If this does happen I can see him getting a new big contract with Nike

Yup..and Nike clearly doesn’t give a fukk about giving out money..(Kaep & ShaCarri)

I’m not into betting..what does this mean when it’s locked?

I can easily see Bron getting Nike to give him a deal. people forget Kyrie's shoes were high selling.

Idk about other areas but I’ve been in the education system since 2015 & Kyrie by far has the most popular shoes among elementary kids. I’m not into sneaker culture so idk if it’s the price or design, but I’ve seen more kids with Kyrie’s shoes on by a long shot

Get Kyrie now then trade AD for KD next season.

Nipples would be hard around the world.

Kyrie and the Nets negotiating for the Coli

Who’s gonna blink 1st?

Pretty sure it's the Rockets that hold all the Nets picks
The Nets hold the Sixers pick next year
