On Friday , the Nets will chase Kevin Durant around the Barclays Center court, hoping to contain the NBA

My favorite sentence in the article is "depending if Deron picks up his option or not" because there really is a chance that he'd turn down $25M or whatever ridiculous number it will be.

If this said "Knicks target Durant in 2017" can you imagine the response this would get?

[Ancient Legend]

The Russian owner can pay him under the table like he did AK47.

:lol Niko you make a good point.

[TylerOO]

Oh god now my ****** friends that are Net fans won't shut the **** about this until he signs somewhere else, just like they did with LeBron.

[outbreak]

because every time with cap space won't be called to try and lure Durant when he's a free agent?

[Budadiiii]

Durant is never leaving OKC, period.

Yea and I'm targeting Kate Upton for next saturday, I'd say both things have an equal chance of happening.

What makes you so sure Upton doesn't do us average Joe Schmos? :confusedshrug:

Unless you are not gonna be anywhere near Kate on Saturday :mad:

[All Net]

good luck with that :oldlol:

[Boarder Patrol]

Who wants to play with a maxed out Deron? He'll be damn near out of the league by then with the way his ankles are behaving.

But he might not pick up his option. :lol Plus i would think at sometime in the next few years they might pick up more players, keep some of their own players maybe? If Lopez is healthy, they cut him? For cap space? Blatche?

BTW, i don't have anywhere to put it but funny Blatche quotes. Blatche is half filipino (he claims) and might play for the Phillipines in Olympic qualifying. They asked JJ if he knew Blatche was half flip and he said "No, but he's "full" of shit".

A man can dream right?

And not unless she plans on hanging out in Florence with some abroad students.

only way KD goes to Brooklyn is if he doesn't win a championship before 2017 and Westbrook goes to L.A.

[Pushxx]

That article is ridiculous. The fact that people are quoting it, talking about it, or even reading it makes me sick.

The integrity of the media industry has disappeared. Makes me feel for real journalists.

pretty much the same as this thread

only with a bunch of knicks fans saying why it will happen

[wang4three]

It's the NY Daily news people. They're barely a step above the National Enquirer or MediaTakeOut.

I'm a Nets fan and know this is ridiculous.

I hear LaLa loved her time in Denver :cheers:

i'm not from denver, never even been there. better think of something different to bait me

[Milbuck]

If he wins even just one chip in the next 3 years, he's sticking with OKC.

[navy]

If he wins even just one chip in the next 3 years, he's sticking with OKC.
As long as Westbrook and Ibaka stay he is sticking with OKC. If they lose it wont be because he didnt have help.

[maybeshewill13]

What a ****ing stupid article. Really? Talking about free agency of 2017? 3.5 years away? **** outta here :facepalm By time that comes around Durant could have 3 rings and 3 FMVP :bowdown:

[bagelred]

So Niko, you need to explain something. Are you a Brooklyn Nets fan now as much as you are Knicks fan? You start Nets threads. you post Nets information. You seem geniunely very interested in anything Nets related. What's the story? Do you have two loyalties now?

[imdaman99]

I hear LaLa would love wherever the hell you are from, as opposed to NYC :cheers:

As much as you are an OKC fan.

BTW i post Net news because none of the Net fans do. If a Knick sneezes, there's seven threads. If D-Will went on a killing spree, no Net fan could be bother to post it.

Are you European?

[niko]

pretty much the same as this thread

No, it would have been 8 pages of ****ING DELUSIONAL KNICK FANS. There was a Rondo thread, go look it up.

[kurple]

Are you European?
Oslo, Norway

represent :pimp:

i know, but there aint no nets fans thinking this will happen

[It's A VC3!!!]

You won't be hearing anything from me about KD just yet. It's three summers away. Definitely not worth it to even think about. Plus, a core of Deron, KD and ? are not that good because Deron would be 31 by then and surely 95% broken. KD would be 28 and still very effective and would easily be the best player in the league by then. Anyways, we'll see what happens between now and then. It must make you mad niko that the Nets are always the top landing spot for these big free agents while the knicks are not. :lol

Look at the post right after yours.

That's just an excuse. What's the real reason you post Nets news. Because person A doesn't do it doesn't mean person B "HAS TO".

I didn't say i was mad, i said i post because Net fans can't be bothered to discuss their own team.

By all means go ahead. No Nets fan minds you posting nets news.

I wouldn;t think so. I try to avoid commentary (unless it's mentioning JJ's quote or something like that which was too funny...)

I read the quote but I want to heard it via audio. I don't think there is one though.
Dray is trying to raise his stock value. He goes to the Philippines and averages 50 points, easy. Which forward or center in the Euro's can stop him?

I don't think so. JJ probably went full deadpan, which would be funniest.
