    My theory is that ownership cheaped out and forced Nico to do this. That press conference with Nico and J.Kidd looked like a hostage video lol.

      I just don’t understand why didn’t the owners want more 1st rounders. Why are they happy at that? Rich people are so weird

        New Owner Derangement is totally a thing. It happens over and over(Suns Now, Prokhorov Nets etc.).

        These new owners buy a team and assume they can just run it like any other business. They think they can just come in and start making basketball decision but they don’t know Jack shit about basketball and fail every single time. Most of them have failed upwards and convinced themselves that they’re actually geniuses.

      Said the same thing, new ownership is all about recovering their money as fast as possible, in a year or two they’ll “realize” that Kyrie, Klay, and AD is not a winning formula and say “oopsie, let’s blow it up, hehehe”, leaving the team in a sucking state for a decade or so.
