Westbrook contract is toxic, I doubt anyone is willing to take it on.

Only thing is Thibs is feeling pressure to get the Knicks in playoffs. They are taking a nose dive.  I think he is good for first year, and then guys get tired of his voice. Pretty consistent pattern in his career.

I hope Thibs knows how to ease up at moments like this, and be light with his players now and then in the form of a joke or two.  It will help his longevity.  Truth is they don't have the talent yet...even with this down year they are still overachieving a bit...need to have a good draft and make another good move or two...Kemba and Fournier may have hurt their identity a bit from last year.  Fournier can stick but they need more.

Just want to say I’m throughly enjoying this Nets inner implosion. Nets fans are still in the infighting stage with Kyrie but will ultimately will be resigned to the fact that he’s a clown. They got way too giddy acquiring all those egos in one spot.

Harden basically orchestrated his exit out of Houston and now he's doing the same with Brooklyn lol

Kyrie is a straight up ASSASSIN*

Which is why I didn't wanted to trade for him last season. When he's in shape and engaged, he's a great player. But when he checks out, he lights everything on fire.

Exactly. Great player, but also I found it ridiculous that after some of the rule changes and the refs started to let the players play a bit more, Harden was constantly whining about it after some games where he was meh and didn't get too many FTAs 

Cry me a river.

If he goes to Philly Embiid can teach him how to fall down if anyone breaths on him. Embiid is the possum!

Oh yeah, Embiid/Harden a combined 30+ FT attempts per game. Can't wait!  ::)

That's perfect.

Also just saw someone reference the Celtics being undefeated since JB tweeted "The energy is about to shift"

You joke but......would you put it past him to do that for another title? I think something like that is right up his alley.

Kevin Love, Caris LaVert and all the picks for Lebron. I can see that going down.
