Per Woj...Kyrie just fired his agent

[colincb]

Isn't ROC nation in deep with Brooklyn?

Jay-z is from Brooklyn. That's about it. They're clientele is pretty spread out - Kevin Durant, Rudy Gay, Danny Green, Jeremy Lin, Justise Winslow, Caris Lavert.

Looks like KD isn't with Roc Nation anymore.

Where are you seeing this info at?

Everywhere I look online says he’s still with Roc Nation.

To clarify something I keep hearing about with sky moving to the Roc: Kevin Durant is no longer actively repped by Roc Nation. Rich Kleiman was originally at Roc and then left to rep KD independently through 35 Ventures over a year or so ago.

jay-z use to be small owner of bkln and had to sell his part b/c of this agency, I think. I could have it wrong, I really dont remember it clear enough. I dont really remember because my only interest in the agency was because James Young signed with them when we drafted him.

But it's a partnership with CAA and they don't have a history of steering clients to specific teams.

Doesn't matter though. People are going to infer what they want into this.

Now that Kyrie is gone is it okay for us to criticize him....

what team did kyrie sign with?

He is not under contract with any team right now. So is it okay to be objective about him now?

Rofl. It’s really funny when a fan calls their opinion objective

Well? He is no longer a Celtic can we talk about him now?

Nobody is stopping you. There’s even a Kyrie complaint thread.

My take is Ainge got greedy and messed up a good thing by trading for the malcontent. Now his plan is up in smoke. Kyrie was never a true celtic. I say good riddance to Kyrie.

Thanks for the backup. TP.

If Kyrie does not want to stay after Ainge brings in Davis and jettisons Rozier...he was never resigning with the Celtics.

[Tr1boy]

Strange timing. Why wait until now for the change?

Irving old agent:  what about resigning with the Celtics? 5 year deal is big money

***poof

Maybe Lebron called him for a favor, asking to make a push to nudge the Celtics away from the AD sweepstakes.

Look, you might be right. I was probably willing to overlook Kyrie's flaws because I wanted us to win.

I don't know that Ainge got greedy. The good thing was ruined by IT's hip anyway.

But he told season ticket holders he was!!!1!1!!!!1!

Danny is like that friend that everyone has ...
that blows up his paycheck in the strip club each time thinking that he will go home with his favorite stripper.

Thanks, TP.

I think that helps make this move seem less like a signal that he is signing with the Nets (given that the connection there is very overblown) and more about how it sets him up for opportunities in the entertainment industry.

Then again, that’s not necessarily a good sign for our hopes of signing him.

That’s one thing about KD that I do admire - it’s always been about winning to him. Now the means to get to that winning stage I think he was wrong to pursue (i.e. a cowardly shortcut for a guy of his skill level), but he’s not really been about the other parts of being a celebrity and fame in his free agency decision-making.

Kind-of, only after actually going home with the stripper, the stripper actually pays him. You can say what you want about the guy, but he has several of the most famous trades of recent times. He is generally very well respected. It's not his fault his city's fans blew it.
