The dawn of which is probably "taking my talents to South Beach" was one of the shorter changes in the recent history of NBA free agency. According to rumors, the Nets and Irving could see eye-to-eye when it comes to player-option years. The Nets were exhausted by the incomprehensible river of shit Irving makes his team swim through just to have him for 30 games, and were only too happy to give his agent permission to find a destination in a sign and trade.
Irving released an up-his-own-ass statement that he would be staying in Brooklyn for at least another season. How did that turn around so fast? It's the damneddest thing.
You wonder if GMs were laughing at his agent when he called to say he was changing his mind. Irving's list was ridiculous. The Heat and Mavericks don't need him, the 76ers must've been a joke to make us laugh or an indication that Irving really doesn't know what planet he's on. The buzz was that the Lakers would consider it. It's the only worse situation one could find themselves in with the Lakers. Irving chose to go back to a place where he was hated the most, rather than push for the Lakers. Don't forget to catch the second season of Winning Time in the spring.
Irving was trying to throw people off the scent of what was happening by making his statement as self-serving as possible, as if there was something revolutionary about accepting $37 million. The fact that he is never on the court is something the Nets are tired of more than anything else. When he isn't leading a cause that only the truly confused can follow, it's because his body is made of wood. Irving hasn't played more than 67 games in a season since he left Cleveland. He has to re-establish his value when he hits free agency for the last big contract he's going to get, so you can bet he'll play more next season. If he can, or if he can keep himself away from the internet that keeps him home that day. If he doesn't pile up the starts, the Nets will almost assuredly spit it in the first round again while Kevin Durant's bones turn to dust as he puts up 46-point games that go nowhere.
It is refreshing to watch a dipshit high from huffing his own farts get thwacked with reality when player power is as free as it is in the NBA. It will be played off by him as another thing he has to overcome when all of it is his doing.
The Wimbledon started yesterday. Russian and Belarusian players were not allowed to play at Wimbledon due to the invasion of Ukranian. The All England Club tournament's rankings points were taken away by the tour and the players don't gain or lose anything in the rankings even if they play there. The money and prestige of Wimbledon is still more than enough for players.
As every tournament will be until he does it, this will serve as a survey on Carlos Alcaraz, who is looking for all the world to be the next torch-carrier after Nadal and Novak. There was an amazing spring before the French Open. He won three tournaments in a row. He was defeated by Zverev in the quarters at Paris.
Struff did not win that point. For the past decade and a half, opponents have said things about Nadal. Stay on top of the situation.
