Didn't the Nets give him their blessing over the summer to go find a sign and trade and he couldn't find anything?
Going to be hard to get a deal done with Lakers before feb. 9th.
Are Nets now in rebuild mode? They going to trade him to Lakers for a 1st and Westbrook and whatever filler?
Jeesh. What a position to be put in less than a week til deadline.
Edit: then by May he is pissed at being 3rd banana to lebron and Davis---and the cycle continues.
The timing of this power play makes me think this was spur of moment rather than a thought through plan.(shocking)
He was balling and team playing decent waiting on Durant.
Not sure what Nets do now. Deadline is super close. Irving is a FA at season's end. You could lose him for nothing---but do you really want to give this brat what he wants?
I haven't a clue how this ends. Could see numerous plausible scenarios.
Him and Simmons don't seem to understand why they can't just be paid and stay at home.
Gl to Lakers if they land him. Once you hand him that multi-year guaranteed deal---he will return you 55 games played a season and around 30 or so that he bother to play up to his talent.
Lakers are fooling themselves that LeBron will be some big help on this. Irving won a championship hit the big shot and still wanted to stir the pot at the end. Once again. GL. He wants to be paid to do things on his time. Period.
