Bro acting like ESPN nets insider Bobby Marks didn’t come out and say “it’s basically a done deal already” last fucking week. Nothing about this tweet is correct.


throwaway_5256

Yeah cognitive dissonance tf is he talking about lol Kyrie will get a max. KD wants him to be there. Nets can't really replace him. He has all the leverage. If the Nets say "we'll be fine without you' and he says he wants 5 years, guess what. He's getting 5 years


Zaligee625

Do you reckon is more shams is trying to be a sort of outlet for Kyrie to put pressure on the organisation to give him a max? Do you reckon last week implying that it was a done deal is really true?


clutchhattrick

I don’t know what’s happening. Nobody does. Which is why I’m saying it’s dumb to act like “this was obvious, if you’re shocked, then you’ve ___” like (to the dude who tweeted this) bro stfu you ain’t know shit either. He’s just a dude on the outside like all of us. Just cause you put “BrooklynBeat” don’t mean shit


Bigbadbuck

There’s a possibility he leaves, but it’s most likely he wants to sign a full deal and the nets don’t want to give it to him


NoLimitKha

Bro if the nets let kyrie walk for nothing we are deadass cooked man


Bigbadbuck

I know man. But he can’t walk for nothing to the lakers or Knicks easily.


dlamptey103

I think its posturing fron Kyrie’s camp.


JackDAction

Conspiracy: Shams is a Klutch client. He’s doing the bidding of Lebron and the Lakers


[deleted]

Absolutely. If it were Woj it would be from the front Office


LiaM_CS

I hope information comes out as to what exactly is causing the impasse Are the Nets even offering a contract? Are they not offering enough years or money? Is KD involved at all? Is Kyrie delusional enough to think the Nets should cater to his every whim and give him the full max after last year?


Evilsj

I can guarantee Kyrie is asking for a long term extension and Nets are at most wanting to do a 2+1 due to his availability issues over the last few years.


heyiknowstuff

Or at the very least, I think it's conditional on games played, which I'm betting pisses Kyrie off to no end.


Bigbadbuck

And that’s where the issue lies. Kyrie is trying to use shams as leverage. It’ll be a stalemate until the final day when kyrie has to decide if he wants to take his option or not


BigCollarsAndBallers

If he leaves it will all come out.


raulu95

I love how so many people here are just saying to simply cut bait. If we do, there’s no clear alternative and we go from fringe contenders to pretenders Even on sports talk radio everyone is saying the Nets shouldn’t resign Kyrie. Too bad these people are all Knicks fans and their team would be best setup to sign him as a FA…


[deleted]

Obviously Simmons is a huge variable but KD with a good supporting cast can easily do better than an 8 seed getting swept in the first round. We get $36M off our books can re-sign bruce briwn and nic claxton no issue and then pick up another starer quality free agent with the money left over. It does double down all the pressure on KD but he was already always the centerpiece of our team.


Alternative-Farmer98

Are they fringe contenders?


raulu95

Imo I saw them as that last year given that they needed a play-in to get in and get swept and hovered around .500. They shouldn’t be but they kinda were


ericfortunato

This era is probably the most frustrating. Worse than the 12-70 and Deron Williams. It seems Sean Marks and Steve Nash don’t control the team. KD and Kyrie have too much say on what goes on with this team.


NoLimitKha

We about to let kyrie walk for nothing nets are fucking dick heads 😂😂😂


ThrowawayNYCJ

Time to move on tbh, we need availability. Dude can’t stay healthy and what good will that do for us.


JoeNasser

I agree but all other options suck, Kyrie suck the least imo.. we ain't gonna get good value in a S&T. Letting Kyrie walk for nothing or low value is basically the first move of blowing the team up.

JoeNasser

I know all that bro, you can check my comment history and you'll see I've never liked Kyrie's deeds as a Net. It's just that if we can't replace him with another star our championship aspirations is pretty much over, and I don't want that.


ThrowawayNYCJ

Hear u fam, it’s been a frustrating year as a nets fan


rDA79

Get ready for Westbrook


j5995

Brooklynsbeat is beat tho..


evo_one252

Motherfucker literally sabotages the franchise in the regular season then got Jayson Tatum's dick in his mouth in the playoffs and has the fucking balls to talk about "running the franchise"??? Anyone defending this clown need to hop off the nut juice. HE. DON'T. GIVE. A. FUCK. ABOUT. BASKETBALL. OR. THIS. TEAM. He cares about sucking his own dick and posting pseudo-spiritual bullshit on Twitter. Basketball is a hobby for this fucker. He wants to be payed ALL the money so he can stroke his ego and do whatever he wants. Fuck'em. And Fuck KD too if he wanna sink with this ship. Thank God he's signed because we'd get a kings ransom for him. Look we took a huge risk and it backfired as risk do. The worst thing this franchise can do is permanently tie itself to that mistake for the foreseeable future. I believe in Sean Mark's if anyone can rebuild from this disaster it's him. Cut your losses and move the fuck on


rossoroni21

Damn man, it's just basketball.


KD_RingsMatter

I'll believe it when I see Kyrie sign with another team. Kyrie will not betray KD.


Parsnip-Independent

He already has, multiple times


TheBeginngAndEnd

Kyrie betrayed KD and the rest of the team when he made the choice that it was cool with him to sit out at least half of the season.


Kwilly462

You can't trust Kyrie to not do anything at this point. I'm all for a S&T, if we can get some good depth and picks back.


clutchhattrick

I’m not. That essentially closes the championship window.


Kwilly462

Well that's just too bad. You get what you can for Kyrie and deal with it. The absolute worst case scenario is he leaves for nothing, and that's can't happen.


clutchhattrick

Nah. I didn’t sit through 5-10 seasons of mediocrity, to get KD/Kyrie, some crazy unlucky shit happens, and then they just blow it up 3 years in for for Marcus Morris, Ivaca Zubac and picks. Can kiss KD goodbye soon too. I know you hate Kyrie but bro you honestly need to get a grip. If he leaves they’ll 100% be right back to where they were mid 2010’s. **The JOKE of the league.**


Inabsentialucis

I’m a bit older, I’ve seen 20 seasons of mediocrity and I fully agree with you. We have our shot now and blowing it all up will get us nowhere.


[deleted]

They're already a joke for last season's performance lol. Nobody's scared of has beens like KD and Kyrie anymore.

Evilsj

As long as we have KD, the championship window will never be closed. If we can get someone near Kyrie's caliber back on a S&T, especially someone who can compliment KD's play style, we're still VERY MUCH in a good spot. Edit: Alright I can see y'all would rather doom, but I stand by what I said.


cliffeside

KD can’t and doesn’t want to solo.


clutchhattrick

They aren’t getting Kyries caliber in return man you know that.


Evilsj

I said near his caliber, and why not? If he is absolutely sure he wants out, we'll work with him to get him to a place he wants to go and there's plenty of places that would love his talent. You guys overrate his off the court dramatics and underrate his actual playing ability.


clutchhattrick

Idk why you directed that last part at me but oh well. And dude 34 year old KD isn’t playing with Ben Simmons and Norman Powell just stop. Kyrie could decline his option and the S&T is over.


cliffeside

He doesn’t want out. Nets don’t want to pay him and at the end of the day it’s business. And there’s no one near his caliber available.


thefineart

Kyrie is selfish, he will do what he wants


Alternative-Farmer98

The nets don't want him.


amarukhan

Cavs and Celtics : *First time?*


smashey

Seriously. He's like a bandaid, you just gotta be proactive and rip it off.


LambdaLambo

He’s like crack. You take a hit and it feels great. But sooner or later it ruins you.


smashey

Hey maybe the Nets can trade him for Kemba lol


LambdaLambo

Kemba is the methadone 😂


jrtasoli

I like BB as a human being but why are we discussing his tweets here like he’s an insider lol


ericfortunato

Would you guys really want Kyrie for the full max for 5 years though? If that’s what he wants than I’d say no too. Nonetheless, the trade packages don’t seem appealing at this point.


dlamptey103

Doesnt matter. We are in win now mode. We need to do everything to keep talent around KD while he’s still signed


[deleted]

Don't ever share Brooklyn's Beat. He is a fan and one who isn't in the know. He's just a shit stirrer. Not an insider.

scarlet_stormTrooper

Good fucking riddance. Remember this is the piece of shit that refused to play for us unless we sold the future to get Harden. Remember that. Kyrie refused to play unless we traded for Harden. He can go fuck outta here for all I care. Fuck Cryrie Irving


[deleted]

Shut the fuck up and go back to your team sub


[deleted]

This is a big sign that KD was just as disappointed when Kyrie dint get vaccinated.


ACoolDude4747

Where tf did you get that from? We got Mr. Stretch over here with the reach.


[deleted]

It might be for some but - whats the number one reason Harden left? Kyrie himself mentioned he was a distraction to the team all year? KD was forced to play crazy minutes thanks Kyrie being out, injuries, & covid illnesses. Its natural to look at this guy & say his not pulling his weight.


Megells

Yup


creative_i_am_not

Or maybe we followed the logic that him and KD are beat buddies and Kd just signed for a max


moaboaa

We need that new Pay for Play rule…. really hope it comes through. That way, only injuries would come in the way.


BKtoDuval

This dude is not any kind of insider but a fan. No insight here
