That was an ugly loss, up 3 with 3min to go and Pacers went on a 13-0 run to close it out.

I could be way off base here - but I'm suspecting he is having mental issues dealing with the overall Covid situation and everything related to it.

I would perhaps agree, except that he’s shown that he’s a self-serving prima donna many, many times before Covid-19 made for a convenient excuse.

He has mental issues like most everyone does. The difference is that when those issues become a hindrance to our professional or personal lives, most of us would seek professional help for those issues.

Kyrie’s exit from Cleveland was a clear warning sign for NBA teams. Unfortunately for the Nets (and Celtics) they ignored those signs because of his ability to play great WHEN HE DECIDES TO..........

I think that most of us who work for a living have enough respect for our work, our fellow employees, and our opportunities to decide to just not show up without letting the boss know. When Irving missed the first game of this MIA streak, he texted some teammates. That’s the only way that the team found out that he wouldn’t be there.

He definitely seems to suffer from something akin to an oppositional defiance disorder, but that’s been pretty obvious for quite a while. If he isn’t willing to deal with it and won’t listen to those who try to help him, ultimately that’s on him. He can afford care for any condition in ways that most Americans could only dream of.

Did you guys see the latest Harden drama? and man that dude is so out of shape, he has a gut on him, pretty sad. He is also throwing his career away, no one is going to want him.

the last two games the rockets had against the lakers were ugly... I just read James Harden was told not to show up for practice today, so a trade is looking imminent. I'm not happy with the way it has played out, I was hopeful that he would try to mesh with the team but he clearly is not. I've enjoyed watching him score over the years, but the way the ball moves around the court and then just STOPS when it gets to Harden can be painful. Hopefully his departure will bring in a new era of team basketball in Houston.

Olidepo to Houston and 4 1st round picks, how in the hell did Victor get in there? It involves 4 teams, pretty wild.

Ya I can't see that ending well. Didn't KD and Harden break up before? Then add Head Case Irving to the mix. And subtract what Brooklyn gave up. All kinds of talent, but holy personality mash Batman.

I kinda feel sorry for Steve Nash....

OKC traded Harden pretty much out of the blue if i remember right. He was shocked.

On twitter today I seen "The OKC Nets" tag being used already lol

What sux is none of the Suns players have tested positive, yet we are going to miss three games because of Beal who was allowed to play?

And who knows how or when we make up those games????

Call me CONFUSED!Dizzy

btw: GSW last night had 19 turnovers and missed TEN layups, they were trash! So glad they arent playing tonight, they need a lot of work. They're gonna lose by 40 to Lakers on Monday.

Well Harden starts his Brooklyn stint with a pretty impressive triple double, hopefully he stays committed to being more than just a scorer like he showed today!

I will be surprised if he and Irving don’t clash pretty big at some point this season. Those guys are pretty big divas and they may not really be excited to share the ball as much as they should with Durant, let alone each other.

Damn KD and Harden go off and they escape from the Magic. Not a lot of defense highlights going on. They sacrificed a hell of a lot for him.

Holy Crap! If I told you that Steph only made three 3 pointers but GSW beat the Lakers would you believe me? Well believe it!! They came from down 19 in the first half and scratch and clawed their way back in to win it. Amazing! The first half was atrocious.

Look at the box:
