My friend knows Kyrie from high school playing days, and has hung out with him, KD, and some other warrior players. The KD/Kyrie relationship is real. Somehow, KD is a bit ‘off’ socially, but he still has a bond with Irving. If they both had their druthers, I do think they’d engineer a situation where they play together. But, it’s still a complex, contextual thing, so even before last night it might not have happened. Now it’s just so much more complicated and interesting.

So, what’s the deal? KD could not opt out of the Warriors and collect his contracted pay for next year while rehabbing the entire season and maybe playing in the late playoffs... or another team takes the risk on a 95% player going forward, knowing he won’t contribute at all next regular season... unless one of hose teams is also convinced it can make it deep into the playoffs without him? But by leaving Golden State, he can’t make as much as if Golden State signed him to a Supermax [I]after[/I] next year? I try not to get too involved in contracts and caps and such, but this off season is going to be real compelling stuff. That whole thing, and whether or not anyone impactful really wants to play with LeBron anymore, or in the Lakers’ sh1tshowtime situation...
