They got kyrie tho it’s all good
What a couple weeks with Kyrie does to a mf
Cue the photoshops
Luka Done-cic
If only we could get a decent C, so many issues would be solved
Scariest part is that Kyrie has been playing really well and hasn’t done anything crazy yet (at least not publicly).
I still think that they’ll make the play-in, but it’d be wild if they miss and Kyrie is a Maverick for only another 2 weeks.
Don’t worry Luka when you eventually come home, Giannis will take good care of you
If they lose Kyrie and then Luka, that will be one of the most disastrous trades in NBA history. Of course, if your hail Mary to keep a star is Kyrie in his last contract year, you might’ve been asking for it.
Who could have ever imagined these vibes could surround a Jason Kidd led team….
From WCF and beating 60 win teams to out of the playoffs
From Top 10 defense and 50 wins to complete shambles
Who wouldn’t be frustrated lol mans averaging 33PPG to deal with bullshit
Luka gone
Maybe Mark Cuban should go on First Take again and brag about the Porzingis trade
#HERE WE GO
Luka complains so much during games he fails to get back on defense in a timely manor. No doubt this pisses off his teammates and creates bad chemistry. You can’t win a chip with bad chemistry.
The inevitable Luka-Giannis super Euro team up is coming in two years. Bucks will trade all of their 1sts for him
Well, it would help everyone including himself if he exerted more energy on defense and hustle. His body language sucks when he doesn’t have the ball on offense or when his team has to get stops.
It’s all well and good everyone blaming Kyrie for the team’s shortcomings but at some point the franchise player has to show up and lead by example.
Letting Brunson walk will haunt them for years to come.
Luka to Brooklyn
Imagine trading all your wing defense and draft capital for 15 games of Kyrie.
Milwaukee drooling right now.
I wonder if Luka would ask out if Kyrie left in free agency? And if he did, who could reasonably put together a package for him?
Luka to the Hornets
The hardest Road
They should’ve kept Brunson
Should’ve just paid Brunson. Then you wouldn’t be in this mess.
How you let a hornets team without ball, oubre, and rozier win like this? I’m a luka fan but it seems he always gets upset when he plays us.
It does not feel like Luka has been in the league 5 years already.
Mfer won’t pay Brunson but he’s on shark tank
Maybe he should stop in the middle of play and complain to the refs about it for like the whole game.
People will talk about Kyrie, but we were in trouble before that. Jason Kidd is a garbage coach, we have no true depth, no consistency in health or performance, it’s just a cluster fuck.
The sad thing is, Cuban will zone in on the refs and ignore the fixable issues.
I can’t believe this team made the WCF last year.
Has he tried deep breathing exercises
How do you not extend Brunson for 4/55m? It’s not a heavy contract regardless if he played like ass the past postseason.
Losing any all-star level player for nothing esp when you had to use more assets to get Kyrie instead of using it to get a center is such a big blow to that team that I can’t imagine them getting back to the WCFs.
Free Luka.
Gonna lose kyrie for free
Interesting. So adding Irving made them worse. Who would’ve thought 😂😂
Not to rub salt in the wound, but the Hornets were on the road in the second night of a back to back.
Honestly Cuban deserve this, he’s too soft and like his smokescreens. I’m glad Luka is voicing his opinion at this moment because Cuban would had swept this under the rug and keep JKidd as coach.
