This feels like something floated by the Nets, to be honest.  Before it was KD wanted out because of how the Nets treated Kyrie.

I agree, weak speculation or outright counterintel by the Nets. Nothing to see here.

Kyrie already wanted out. I am not buying this school of thought.

🤣 🤣 🤣

I still can’t believe Danny thought Kyrie was the answer. Kyrie nearly set this franchise back to the same place Danny inherited it in 2003—we are incredibly lucky that Wyc/Stevens had the brilliant foresight to get Stevens off the court, keep Stevens’ basketball savvy as GM, and bring in Ime for coaching. We are THIS close. And Kyrie is, well, just read the above again 🤣

Ainge made a lot of great moves to get this team back into contention after the KG-Pierce-Ray era. He got impatient as he got older though and made several rash moves, including trading for Kyrie, trading for Kemba, and never deciding which direction to go in as he kept stashing picks and young guys while trying to contend with vets, which left the team with a crap bench every year.

Yeah.  Brad was left with a team that had Tatum, Brown, Smart and Timelord.  That’s not 2003.
