I dont get it. Were 24 hours from the free agency. Kyrie knows where he is going. The classy thing to do is let the team know do they can move on. I get that at this point its an obvious he's leaving, but he could h w told ainge a while ago and he could have operated accordingly..

This whole "maybe I am, maybe I won't" thing was a scam basically middle finger to ainge

Honestly, I don't think Kyrie can lose anymore love than he already has.

If the Heat actually thought drafting Norris Cole was going to get Lebron to stay, they'd be some of the biggest fools ever.  Until he actually has a deal signed, why would Kyrie cut off any of his options?  Stuff happens.  The Nets may be looking at KD and Kyrie as a package deal.  If KD decides to re-sign with GSW, the Nets could back out of signing Kyrie.

Danny had enough advance warning to move in a different direction and land Kemba.  What else do you want?

Nonissue IMO.

and this has exactly what to do with the OP?

I dont get it. Were 24 hours from the free agency. Kyrie knows where he is going. The classy thing to do is let the team know do they can move on. I get that at this point its an obvious he's leaving, but he could h w told ainge a while ago and he could have operated accordingly..

This whole "maybe I am, maybe I won't" thing was a scam basically middle finger to ainge
Danny said himself Kyrie from day1 has been honest and respecful to him and he is excellent

You are just finding no-issues to hate on him and that's the reason he is hesitant to come back

That is the reason he is hesitant to come back? Because of something a celticstrong fan typed on a blog site?  hahaha that is so ridiculous it is funny.

Kyrie isn't coming back for a myriad of reasons, and I don't think we will ever know them all

Yea let’s all keep in mind none of these moves have Ben confirmed by anybody involved in it yet.  We’ve all just been hearing the talking heads stir the pot.  In 12 hours we may very well have the same team as last year sans baynes:/

Danny pretty much just says positive, politically correct things at all times and about all players.  It doesn't mean anything.

We don't know if he hasn't told him.   Maybe Ainge asked him to stay quiet on it, so he could gain leverage and not appear desperate.
