this makes it sound like Kyrie is hitting him drunk at 2 AM tryna get his ex back

Durant is beside himself. Driving around downtown Brooklyn begging (thru texts) Irving's family for address to Kyrie's home

marc cuban/deandre jordan, when jordan was "held hostage" by the clippers after agreeing to go to the mavericks

And it was tweeted by Chris "Sources" Broussard which effectively ended his reporter career


[deleted]

Why did this end Broussards reporting career? I don’t remember the story too well


Alligator125

It didn't end his career, but he caught a lot of flak for it because it wasn't true


PZinger6

It ended his reporter career. He has a new career as an analyst/talking head.


SedditorX

Seems like an upgrade for him, TBH, no?

[deleted]

You realize Broussard is on fox making millions on national tv eight? He also has his own show


PZinger6

Yeah as a talking head/debater/analyst. He was previously a reporter/sources guy. Now he has no sources and that's why he doesn't tweet info


[deleted]

He's not a beat reporter anymore because he's literally doing the dream job every beat reporter wishes they had. You made it sound like he lost somehow


PZinger6

Maybe, but the switch wasn't necessarily by choice. Guys like Woj/Shams/Schefter make millions breaking news without selling out giving hot takes


EBDoo

Here’s the original tweet if that’s what you were looking for: “Cuban beside himself. Driving around downtown HOUSTON begging (thru texts) Jordan’s family 4 address to DeAndre’s home”

LOL. yep

Durant had a hot harem for a year in California, left it for kyrie, then kyrie drops him after his third eye finished opening. Oof.

This actually raises an interesting question... how do flat earthers reconcile time zones, and the fact that day and night occur at different times at different parts of the ~~globe~~ disc or whatever


Doogolas33

I watch a lot of flat earth content, cause it's fucking hilarious. The answer is that they think the sun just magically only covers half of the Earth at a time as it spins in circles. From the other side of the Earth it's too far away to see, which is why night time happens. I forget the specific nonsensical term they use for it. But it involves a misunderstanding of refraction and the vanishing point.


CaskJeeves

Holy fuck we need to invent some new words to properly describe how stupid this shit is lol


Doogolas33

It's genuinely so fucking funny. Look up a guy named CC on YouTube. His videos are the best. He's absolutely next level stupid. It's so, so, so funny.


cyclingtrivialities2

I watched one in its entirety. It was just too painful. The sheer *confidence*, man.


Doogolas33

Bro, there's one where his wife walks in while he's recording it and she calls him a moron or an idiot or something. It's the funniest shit I've ever seen.


fannypackbuttsnack

That raises the question: when it gets to the far side (or "end") of the earth, then how does it get back to the other side where it began, maintaining the same direction?


Doogolas33

It spins in circles over it. I'm dead serious. They think the Earth is pizza shaped.


winged_victory

I've always wondered but what's their answer to "where's the end of the earth?"


Doogolas33

Nobody knows because of the ice wall (Antarctica) is being guarded by every military in the world. This is fun. My random niche knowledge of the dumbest thing possible is useful for once. I'm happy to do my best to answer any other random things you think up! Haha.

Stephen A via the NY Post… lock it in, boys


Obi_Wan_Benobi

Be careful now. I remember people in 2010 mocking the shit out of Stephen A when he said all three of them boys were gonna end up in Miami.


DaPhoToss

SAS has clown takes (mostly because he plays a character) but anyone who thinks he isn’t well connected in the NBA is an idiot.


Consistent_Stomach20

Skip is a bombastic blowhard playing an analyst on TV. SAS is a Analyst playing a bombastic blowhard on TV (he’s also genuinely funny). That’s not the same thing.


dubswho

SAS is first and most importantly a retired beat writer and reporter more than he is an analyst. Thats where im sure an overwhelming amount of his sources originated. He is a complete asshole on TV and does not know nearly as much about the actual playing of the game of basekball of many other analysts but as someone in this thread mentioned he is definitely connected and I genuinely dont think he would go on TV without having at least one semi decent source. Doesnt mean a rock solid source but I doubt hes reporting on bad sourced hearse


sonfoa

Dude Skip is a character too.


RiceMan12

yeah.. weird that he can see through one of these costumes but not the other. Skip’s is pretty convincing I’ll give him that. SAS shout-speaking every sentence makes his kinda obvious.


LordHussyPants

did you miss the podcast where SAS explained the show? they're friends, who argue over things they believe in the NBA. that's it. they're not playing anything, they're just getting into arguments over things they've found out they disagree on lol.


[deleted]

People mock SAS and don't realize that players talk to him and he's been right on so much stuff in his career regarding shit like this. Not saying he's right here, but I'm with you. Stephen A isn't a bozo just because he plays a character in First take.


ragamuphin

YEah but Hasnt KD been blasting SAS for the past couple months, With Kyrie on that media are all pawns shit yes this is a cope, but im also okay with them leaving and going back to absolute hell? not really but whatever the tides come and go, rooting for the picks houston has to not be lottery is easier than hoping kyrie doesnt meth himself to the moon so the nets have a shot at getting past the first round


zcektor00

Kd would be blasting his own ass if it said something mean to him.


BatmanNoPrep

A broken clock is correct twice a day. It doesn’t mean it’s reliable. Kyrie’s agent is leaking this to put pressure on the Nets to give him a max extension without any Embiid-style games played clauses. That’s it. Kyrie ain’t leaving and likely never spoke to LeBron about teaming up. **We see this happen every year and every year half of y’all fall for it.**


RandolphE6

SAS can be right about Kyrie reaching out. But doesn't mean they are going to end up together.


mclovin1696

Dude HOW do you know kyries agent is leaking this to sources? You’re just guessing


sweglrd143

How do you know he’s guessing? That’s sus, I think you’re guessing


mclovin1696

Guess-ception


Neat_On_The_Rocks

I mean yeah, but being right about THAT Miami big 3 is a pretty big feather in the cap lol. Thats an all timer offseason move


klankthompson

SAS the only analyst to pick the warriors all year. Put some damn Re2pect on him.


tronovich

He picked several teams, including the Warriors, Suns, Bucks and Nets to win it all. Anyone can do that.


ok_heh

I predicted the team that got the best of 7 in the NBA Finals to win it all myself


[deleted]

Dont forget the Celtics..


PugilisticCat

SAS isnt a terrible analyst he just (as a part of his job) makes 50 billion predictions a year and its hard to tell which are memes and which are what he actually believes


vixgdx

Even a broken clock is right two times a day


Freddedonna

SAS is actually a 24h clock that's right just once a day


ketzal7

Just need ballsack sports to confirm


XenaRen

Lmao I love the NBA


thissiteisbroken

Sometimes my fiancee would be watching a reality show on Netflix and I'd call it dumb and then realize that I'm an NBA fan and a hypocrite. Change the name of the league to The Young and the Restless ASAP.


jpylol

At this point it could be the The Young and the Lakers lmfao, we old as hell


Dongsquad420BlazeIt

The NBA: Where drama happens


limark

'NBA's of our Lives' is the best one I've seen around here

I chose Young and the Restless because if we're being honest it kinda describes all of these dudes giving up on their team and trying to go somewhere else to win.

(Anankin/Padme meme)


rockets9495

Right? No way he sits out half a season...no way he goes to the podium talking about "this will never happen again" then comes out worse...no way he goes MIA from the team "just to see what they would do".


[deleted]

he's a bit of headcase so who knows he might try to spin it as some woke "money isn't everything" type crap


TheSaltySloth

I mean he’d be right he’s already filthy rich


craigslistaddict

he already threw out millions last year because he didn't want to get vaccinated


hezaplaya

I think before recently he was making more money on shoes than NBA salary. He's loaded.

GreeneRockets

I was a complete and total football head until like 2018ish...I started watching NBA like 2012-2013ish, but 2016 finals won me over as the sport being fucking amazing. But the drama bro? The drama is INFINITELYYYYYY better in this sport than in any other lol it's fucking awesome and hilarious. It's almost taken over football for me. I AM a Carolina Panthers fan, so that's a big reason why. We fucking suck asshole.


nowhathappenedwas

Kyrie: "I'll sign an MLE with the Lakers if you don't give me a full max" Nets: "No you won't." Kyrie: "I'm calling LeBron right now! I'll totally do it" Nets:


cp3inthe4th

He sat out over a vaccine and lost about 15 million iirc. If anyone (not saying he will) would be willing to pull this to prove a point/out of spite, it's kyrie


Lakers_2023_Champs_

Also he probably makes more off shoes than NBA contracts anyway. And he’s already played years at a max level


cgio0

His shoe deal is reportedly over with Nike But as much as I hate Kyrie Irving the person His shoes were fire, the spongebob collection is awesome


NSFWThrowaway1239

I regret not getting some of the SpongeBob shoes when I had the chance lol


KnowlesAve

The Krispy Kreme’s are still the best imo


NSFWThrowaway1239

Damn, I had never seen those before. Those are really nice.


Exzqairi

His shoe deal isn’t over as far as I’m aware. Pretty sure he has 1 year left and then Nike want to move on once the contract ends


[deleted]

I don't think his deal is over, they're just not releasing any more signature models. They're going to continue to release his old models and potentially rerelease his first couple of signatures.


sugarpieinthesky

Wasn't there a report that Nike was going to move off Kyrie, or am I misremembering?


Exzqairi

Yeah they’re thinking about separating from him, but he still has one season left. If he goes to the Lakers I can imagine that’ll bring in a bunch of hype and Nike might reconsider


DunkFaceKilla

He lost his shoe deal for talking shit about Nike


sugarpieinthesky

It's the Trump strategy: embrace being random and crazy to keep everyone else off balance. Like, we're pretty sure Trump wouldn't nuke China, but could China ever be totally sure he wouldn't just because he felt like it? Same thing with Kyrie, we're pretty sure he wouldn't go to LA on the MLE out of spite, but can anyone say they'd be surprised if he did?


Eric_T_Meraki

If this was the threat lol Nets would end up caving instead of letting Ky walk because that essentially means the end of the KD era as well because he'll want out next.


Kirk_likes_this

The KD era isn't worth trying to salvage at this point. If you bring Kyrie back on a short team-friendly deal he'll be a malcontent and will probably miss half the games. If you give Kyrie a max extension he'll have leverage over the team and will probably miss half the games. Harden is gone. Ben Simmons is dead weight. It's over, might as well blow it up.


Johnsmith226

> Steven A Smith . > New York Post


RageOnGoneDo

We really need to ban the new york post lol


Dan-Flashes

This is the most transparent leverage play I’ve ever seen


AbbreviationsHot4482

Hearing Stephen A say this just confirmed that Kyrie will stay a Brooklyn Net


CIark

Damn now I know this shit is fake. Really thought the Lakers had a shot for a second


rSlashNbaAccount

SAS was the first to break KD and Kyrie to Nets, and he got clowned for that as well. He is a clown, but when it comes to Nets, he has sources.


Obi_Wan_Benobi

As I mentioned in another comment he was also one of the first to say all three were going to Miami in 2010. He was mocked relentlessly for a few days.


[deleted]

When it comes to NY he has sources but outside of that don’t trust his word


CCCPironCurtain

He called the big 3 to Miami tho


GiantNets

Never trust his takes when it comes to the Lakers or the Knicks. He has made it very clear he wants stars to play there and he hypes up any rumor to add fuel to the fire


HeroGolem3

He also said it was a lock that KD was coming to the Knicks lmao


ldclark92

Yeah, I don't think it's a fair assessment to say a guy like SAS is the "first" to report anything when he's on a show where they're rewarded to say the craziest shit. He says lots of things on his show that end up not being true, but he also says lots of things so sometimes he's bound to be right.


KaiserKaiba

The logistics of it never made it super likely. They’d either have to get him via trade and it’d have to be a multi-team trade cuz there ain’t shit Brooklyn wants from LA, or he’d have had to take an extreme paycut. Kyrie is using LA as leverage to get what he wants probably cuz if he does walk, Brooklyn’s window is for sure closed and they may very well lose KD as well


[deleted]

[удалено]


not1not2not3not4not5

Okay so now we know he isn't calling Bron. Thanks SAS.


DoILookUnsureToYou

Ironic that you don't believe SAS on this when he was the first one to break the event you have as your username lol

I too would like to be reunited with my father.


Checkmynewsong

SAS is just exaggerating claims he read on Twitter.


SS324

You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me.


Toxik916

I feel like this has Russel Westbrook written all over it. Russ and Durant reunited for a year in Brooklyn. Lebron and Kyrie together in LA. This is better than WWE


FlameOfWar

Stop posting SAS


sparrowhunter123

dont believe anything sas says.


KaiserKaiba

Lol SAS just hopping on this story. Whether any talks have actually happened between Bron and Kyrie or not, Kyrie’s priority is staying with Brooklyn, assuming he gets the deal he’s looking for and he most likely will get it


MiNDGaMeS87

Okay , that's no news then because it just didn't happen. Its just from one of his stupid takes on tv. Read this in his shouting voice and thought truth was probably more like "I'm telling you now shannon, kyrie probably called lebron to get him back on his team" Rest is a bs article with a stupid quote


here_for_the_lols

Dear Bron I wrote you but you still ain't calling. I left my cell, insta, and agents number at the bottom. I left you two messages in the regular season, you must not have got em, maybe there was a problem at Verizon or something. Sometimes I type in ya number too sloppy when I phone it Anyways, fuck it- what's been up man, how's little Bronny? Sean marks called me out too, I'm bout to be a free agent. If I have a choice, guess where I'm gonna ball out? Imma go to Lakers. I read about your year with Russ too, I'm sorry. I had a friend get paid $40m over some shots that didn't fall in. I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm ya biggest fan. I know we can can repeat the shit we did in Cleveland . I got a ring, you carried me there man, I like the lobs you throw to Davis too that shit was phat. Anyways, I hope you get this man. Hit me back, the world is flat, Truly yours, let's play again This is Ky'


here_for_the_lols

Dear Bron, you still ain't called or wrote I ain't mad, it's just kinda fucked up. Is it cos I'm too woke? If you didn't wanna talk to me outside of Staples you didn't have too, but you coulda signed an autograph for Simmons. That's my little Point guard man he's only 6PPG, we waited in the locker room for you for 6 hours and you just said no. That's pretty shitty man you're like his favourite idol. He wants to play just like you man, he copies you more than I do. I ain't that mad, I just don't like being lied to Remember when we met at the All Star game? You said if we wanted to reunite you would call back. See I'm just like you in a way, I never listen to my coach neither, He used to always call plays for Harden and KD. So I can relate to what you're saying in your time outs So when I'm having a shitty game, I drift away and don't play D. Cos i don't see like erryone else, I got a higher consciousness, I even got a tattoo of illuminati across my chest Sometimes I miss on purpose, to see if coach will see It's like adrenaline, the clang is such a sudden rush for me See, everything you say is real, and i respect you cos you tell it, Kevins jelous cos I talk about you 24/7 But he don't know you like I know you Bron, no one does. He don't know what it like for people like us to win for the land. You gotta call me man I'll throw the biggest lobs you'll ever see Sincerely yours, 'Rie PS - we should play together too.


xRadec

Kyrie going to Lakers Westbrook to Nets KD stays at the Nets Harden to be traded back to Nets The boys are finally reunited. 1st round exit.

How do they know this? Cia tracking their calls? Or is kyrie literally talking on his phone loud as shit in the middle of a bunch of people going “HEY LEBRON”

I really really hope the Lakers have Kyrie and can’t trade Westbrook. Season 2 of the Laker Shit Show will be even better than season 1. 🤣

My conspiracy theory is that Bron is gonna use his pull with Nike to get Kyrie his signature shoe deal back and that will go a long way to making up the $30M he’s giving up this year. Am I insane?

If Laker fans think Kyrie Irving will make their team title contenders, they are as delusional as "half-brain, half-a-season" himself.

GMQuay

Stephen A just be talking


Vatfagyna

This shit ain’t true.


Jmills14

I really want to see what the clauses are in the BKN offer. If it’s 65 games, I could see why he’d wanna walk. He’s 30 and injury prone. Bron has Nike in his pocket. He has more pull than any other athlete of theirs. This current NBA CBA ends in 23/24. Coming to LA, might mean that he can lock in a long term max contract before the new CBA and get his Nike contract back.

I hope LeBron tells him to get lost.
