Makes sense.  It's a lot easier to force a trade than a sign-and-trade.

You can’t make this stuff up. He’s different and revolutionary for opting into $37M? 😂 What a tool.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Force a trade? If he sits out, he doesn't get paid. What contender would want to sabotage their team to take on the ultimate dumbass.

Nah.  He's got at least one kindred spirit out there.

Plus his statements would make a little more sense if he actually did something different like he mentioned.  He didn't do anything different, he did it exactly the same!

That was his only play unless he was really going to play for only 6.4 million dollars or go to a crappy team with cap room.

I wonder how the Nets locker room is feeling having this guy on the team for another season AND likely dealing with Ben Simmons antics too (because there will be a lot of it as well)  :laugh:

Yes let's hope he spends next season destabilizing the Nets all over again.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Just wait until the next social crisis happens ,  a riot , a shooting ,  war ,  famine,  Nuke war,  somebody kills the Easter Bunny or farts in his general direction.  He ll have a mental collapse over something that 300 million others will have to get up put our pants on and deal with.

Apparently the Nets found out he was opting in through the same bizarro tweet the rest of us saw.  I’m guessing management wasn’t super excited.
