So then what if curry never wins again without KD?

Now show me KD's version of this picture without Steve Curry in it!

"you can't shake hands or socialize during the game where we all touch and pass around the same basketball"

make it make sense.

Someone asked how Ky could be mentally exhausted this early in. I forgot to quote so not sure who.....The answer is life, man, especially in these times. We know he took Kobe’s death hard, along with the murders of black men by le. Throw in living under the strain of covid and there you go. Throw in the foolishness at the capitol last week too. Not sure if he’s thinking about any of that, but you never know.

Blake Griffin May Be Untradable

Never say never, but given the way the hobbled former dunk machine is moving these days, a trade deadline deal looks very, very unlikely

This makes me sad but as I always say, the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

It's funny Myrie has been the topic of the day because I could 100% see him saying that in his IG Live or the team meeting when he comes back

Y'all keep trying to make excuses for that bozo. All Myrie had to do was tell his coach what was going on with him and this wouldn't have been an issue. He ghosted his entire organization AGAIN and left them hanging out dry.

not my intention

 

[yobyellav]

Not involved here, but my response would be KD holding fmvp trophies and steph’s ridiculous attempt to get his numbers up in that closeout game so he could get mvp, even though that **** was over.

*not sure what was said in this conversation. ignore if not relevant*

 

[yobyellav]

I don’t think excuses need to be made. Someone mentioned how can he be mentally exhausted. I shared my thoughts. Play with whose there. Man grown as ****. If he’s willing to lose money to be away from the team, that’s his choice.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Myles Turner is averaging 4 blocks a game. Crazy

Excuses can't be made....if you don't even talk to your team.

But in all seriousness, that's everyone's universal issue with the situation at the moment - he dipped without a peep. Being mentally exhausted and taking a needed break is cool but tell your organization, coach and teammates that instead of going off the grip.

 

[smedroc]

Party with the fam... No masks.... missing games... i’m cool with all that.

My only issue with Kyrie situation is not telling your coaches ahead of time (I heard he told team mates...)

So thats either just straight disrespect or him being a BAN.

Yeesh. Depressing. At this rate, I’m doubtful Blake gets another NBA contract after this one is done. The time for him to hang it up is coming up soon.

This is so dumb

OKC or some other small market team will give him one.


In other News, the NBA looking to make Kyrie the face of this whole COVID incident.

Righteous.....

he used to

 

[wavycrocket]

Blake Griffin regression is wild to me man.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

he used to

I know Drew did but did Beal?

 

[yobyellav]

Wouldn’t say Blake regressed. He’s gotten older and injury has taken its toll. I was pleasantly surprised he developed an offensive game.
