    It’s time to speed up the rebuild with 2 top picks secured and the obligations to OKC looming for future drafts.

    In a truly unique situation Irving’s on court ability is seemingly at a career high with his trade value being at a career low. Even more unique we own many of the Nets future picks, and while they may feel moving on from Kyrie makes sense for off court reasons, they will absolutely suffer from losing his talent, left with only an aging 34 year old post achilles tear KD and a fundamentally flawed talent in Ben.

    We’re talkin Irving, Green and Banchero… what do all 3 have in common?

    They get buckets. That’s what the league is all about, which team can create more mismatches and get more buckets.

    Also to consider, with Kyries value being created, we would still have the salaries and assets to chase an additional star player… can you imagine Kyrie giving Rudy G a phone call?

    Most importantly, we know when there’s smoke there’s fire. Kyrie wants to be in Houston with all of these leaks. He’s an excellent fit here culturally and politically, he can hear HTINE calling him.

    Thoughts and discussion?

    The scenario of keeping Kyrie is absolutely stupid and makes 0 sense

    Good try @ThatBoyNick

    Not hell no but F!!! No!

    Don't poison this crew and kill a proper rebuild with this ish.

    Still Hoping the current ish gets traded away.

    Sooner rather than later.

    Do not want any 'Me more than Team' cats.

    Irving is too old for our team. Also he is lacking in FAITH for his Team! Y
