Three of the most annoying NBA stars are now altogether on the same team (Harden, Irving, Durant). If they don't win a title, the drama and whining will be non-stop. It's early, and Kyrie has already gone MIA, throwing Durant under the bus: https://nesn.com/2021/01/nba-rumors-...ent-situation/

Great deal for the Nets or a sink sinking type deal for the Nets. No inbetween on this one.

Is there anybody in the NBA that isn't annoying or a loser? Seriously they and most of the coaches are all unlikeable in the NBA now.

Most of the superstars are admittedly pretty annoying these days. I think Giannis, Doncic, Curry, and Jokic are more likable than most. In fact, Giannis is so likable that I think he might be a little too nice/soft at times, esp come playoff time. Curry has always been able to turn on the competitive/leader mode when needed for the Warriors. I also think Tatum and Lillard are pretty likable, although they really aren't quite MVP caliber level yet like the others. Zion is another who is pretty likeable, but I still wonder if he'll ever come close to living up to the hype basketball-wise. I hope he remains as down-to-Earth and friendly as he's come across his first couple of seasons. Also love SGA from my OKC team, even if he may never quite be superstar level.

So true about all the annoying stars! Kyrie probably will never be happy anywhere he goes. Maybe they can dethrone King James and AD!

Something generally flying under the NBA radar is the great start to a career that 22-year old Collin Sexton is having. It just took him leading the 8-7 Cavaliers to dispose of Kyrie, Harden and the boys in both Back-to-Back games!

Sexton looks unbelievable and I think throughout the past 6 months he is substantially undervalued compared to other young stars at the same age

Interesting? One man does not make a team. Both Harden and Kyrie are great players, but neither can win alone, but who can. Durant, in my opinion is not aggressive enough, but as seen in OKC, they can push and help each other. Kyrie could not get Durant to up his game. Durant has gotten lazy. Kyrie likely will never find anyone he can work , push, to play to their full extent. Kyrie seems to be similar to Iverson, but not as talented.

I was so happy to see the Cavs beat Kyrie twice, lol. The knock on Sexton when he started was he had tunnel vision, but he's very hard-working. He and the Cavs have surprised many. I wonder how they'll look when KLove comes back. Not sure how he will fit into their current roster. And they can't really move him because of his enormous contract.
