@canefan I don’t mind the whole jump shot thing as long as it’s compensated with other positive play. It was clear last season he had lost all confidence and giving up open layups and making dumb decisions.
Perhaps all the off court stuff caught up with him.

Once Rivers and Embiid gave up on him in the media I guess he felt too butthurt to work hard to try and prove them wrong. Rather take his ball somewhere else

And in the biggest surprise, ultimate team mate Kyrie Irving can not join the Nets as he has not been vaxxed, or he gets an exemption which is unlikely. Because of the rules in NY Irving can't practice there, can't play games, can't play in Denver, San Francisco and a bunch of other cities with similar rules

saw a great description of this idiot the other day
a contrarian without a cause
just a deadshit consumed by his own self-importance trying to pass it off as a conscience
I bet Marks sits at home trying to work out ways to trade him for Simmons

@mariner4life yeah, it's all changed, player power! All LeBrons fault, right? :grimacing_face:
But I can't blame KD here, I wouldn't want Simmons either. Partially because of his obvious flaws and inability / unwillingness to improve on them, but mainly because he seems like a Grade A fuckwit. Looks like a cancerous presence. It's a shame, because his game would be clearly complimentary to the Nets, if he could make FT's at 70% they'd be unstoppable.

Kyrie is a nutcase for sure.
Be interesting to see if the owners and league try to clamp down on this stuff - it's not healthy having players demanding trades and sitting out. AD, Harden, Simmons, Kawhi. They should have their salaries immediately suspended as a starting point

So under current rules the players sit out if they aren't vaxxed. And I don't think there is any provision for teams so censure them or cut them

LA is ready
Nice to be able to concentrate on the on court stuff now
-
Kyrie will get you a bucket and when they rest KD during games, Kyrie has taken over. Ben goes missing.
Kyrie is a phenomenal player but I can’t stand all this stuff. Even down to not wearing NBA socks in games. Idiot
-
On this player power shit, I agree it's fucking garbage. Re moving on Irving and possibly bringing in Simmons for him, being vetoed by Durant, I agree with suspending his salary as a point of action. I wouldn't miss him. And I think the short term pain for the Nets would be worth it if such a move started turning the tide back towards the GMs running the rosters.

Unhelpful when trying to encourage others to get the vax. But he has had covid19 and is bound to have passive immunity at some level. But the league can't have disruption that affects the product, so it is as much a labour force issue as a health issue for them

@canefan has any vaccinated player come out and said they'll refuse to play with / against an unvaccinated player?
@voodoo said in NBA Season - now 21/22:

Not that I know of. But there are many cities whose laws prohibit unvaccinated players from practicing or playing. For example San Fran and NYC so any non vaxx players stand to miss all home games and all home practices. That doesn't take into account away games in cities with similar rules. The league can't have its players not being able to play
