There’s no “making this work”, it’s done and he wants out. In saying that the Nets have zero incentive to rush any deal until they get what they want. Like Tim said, the offers aren’t going to get worse.
If all it took was firing Nash than this would’ve been resolved a long time ago. Marks is who he wants gone and that’s not happening. He hasn’t changed his stance since he asked out.
Exactly. He is fine rebuilding a team. He has no idea how to build champions. His first mistake was hiring a coach who literally had as much coaching experience as me
True. I bought a bottle of bourbon for $150 once and my first thought after trying it was that I could have gotten two bottles of scotch for the same price.
Not Top-12, Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Magic, Bird, Erving, Mj, Hakeem, Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, LeBron, Steph. That's 13 right there who were unquestioned leaders on their championship runs, somebody who could lead a group of men. Then you have guys like Moses Malone, Isiash Thomas, Oscar, Dwade, Garnett, Dirk, Giannis, Kawhi who also lead their teams to success. KD is somewhere in that 2nd group despite joining a 73 win team beacuse his talent is undeniable, his heart, competitiveness and intangibles, well..... So he is top-20 all time.
Dr J, 2X ABA Champ, 1X NBA champ. 3X ABA MVP, 1X NBA MVP, Top 5 MVP candidate year in and year out. 9 times 1st team NBA/ABA. He was 33 when he won his chip. He is definitely greater than KD.
History will probably repeat itself, I guess KD will be joining the team that beats him lol since they have the best offer up so far and unless we go to the Daryl Morey route, I don't think we'll be getting any better offers for KD.
Last summer the team had no money to offer free agents with 3 max players on the roster. He didn't trade fat Harden until he got a deal that was good for the team and he'll do the same with KD because he's a good gm. I don't know what you're on Seth Curry is good and Ben Simmons will be great.
I don’t get the hate. As far as I can tell the helicopter sabers can’t lift a person off the ground. It simply helps you maintain your elevation, like a glider.
I'm not particularly fond of Bowmore. There is a long list of Islay scotch that I'd rather drink. So was just trying to help OP to make a selection. I didn't realize that prices in California are so low. What do you attribute that to?
Are you opening a liquor store?
Engine turned off on its own….sure
Trade KD and Simmons for Middleton and Holiday
Bucks would be getting away with highway robbery
Why? Simmons might never play another game. We are getting 2 All Stars.
I’m not 100% sure they would collude. After all only one team can get him
And what happens if after 3 days there isn’t a good offer?
You take the best offer. On a blind bid, people tend to put in that little bit extra to make sure they get it
And if the best offer is Jalen Brown, White and no picks?
I would say the Nets should ask for: Brown, either Smart or Robert Williams, Pritchard, 3 unprotected 1st round picks and 2 swaps.
Celtics only have 1 first round pick available to trade
Is this actually true ?
Yes. They traded many of their picks or did swaps
Running it back isn't going to help the Nets anymore. Especially now.
We have enough talent to make the conference finals
On paper sure but championships arent won on paper.
No one wins championships without talent
Tough.
It’s Colorado but don’t let them know you think that 😂
100 days of snow? No thanks
The breaking point is finding a good alternative

KD changes his mind daily.
If all it took was firing Nash than this would’ve been resolved a long time ago. Marks is who he wants gone and that’s not happening. He hasn’t changed his stance since he asked out.
I want Nash fired regardless
You are welcome
The best interest of the Nets is to keep an All Time great player and fire an incompetent coach and a very replaceable GM.
Marks is a 2nd tier GM. Doesn’t know how to handle stars’ personalities.
Exactly. He is fine rebuilding a team. He has no idea how to build champions. His first mistake was hiring a coach who literally had as much coaching experience as me
The 14 was even better. Which is funny because it basically got no love when it was freely available 4 or 5 years ago.
What’s your choice from 40-70?
Russels Reserve single barrel picks.
True. I bought a bottle of bourbon for $150 once and my first thought after trying it was that I could have gotten two bottles of scotch for the same price.
Or 5 Bourbons that taste virtually the same.

Nope. KD is clearly greater than Dr J.

Lol.

To be fair last years Nets team would lose to anyone they faced in the 1st round
KD couldn’t even make his trade request at the right time of the offseason. You want to turn over the franchise’s planning to him? Nah
Yes I do.
This franchise didn’t know what a good GM looked like until 2016. You 100% keep good management because they can identify future talent
Tell me how many teams have bad GM’s in 2022? Hardly any. There is so much GM talent right now. They are easily replaced

He had the tax payer MLE last year. Could have used it on a wing instead of Mills.
KD hasn't won anything built around him.
KD made a Finals and 4 Conference Finals in OKC. What the hell has Nash done as a coach and Marks as a GM?
Marks has made TERRIBLE decisions the last year.
You totally missed the point
Its not worth it
Can’t wait till these get up to 7-10 years
She didn't win it it battle ... pretty sure Groku is going to end up with it somehow
She beat a Mandolarian chieftain.
I don’t get the hate. As far as I can tell the helicopter sabers can’t lift a person off the ground. It simply helps you maintain your elevation, like a glider.
It blows my mind that people are mad at the physics of this in a universe where people can literally move things with their mind.
Then 6’7. They don’t play in barefeet
Thinner soles
He’s 6’7. Taller than Joe Harris
6’7” with shoes
Did you realize that most are offered in ONE liter bottles? So the prices are a lot less than it would seem if you're thinking 750 ml bottles.
Yes. I did notice that some are 1 liter and some are 700ml. None of them are good buys. The Bowmore 15 is a decent price. But its a lackluster bottle.

Distributor and state/local taxes.
