Better nite life in Brooklyn? If you build it they will come ... stars followed KD for sure. Too bad we didn't land him over GS ... What might have been. But valid point by you ... it's not much warmer in NY than Boston so that excuse is no longer valid. Kyrie and KD are friends. Kyrie is from the area and they had max slots. It just worked out for them to have a player with ties. Its not just the weather. Cleveland and BKN got players because of players originating from there. Once the followers see that a team is good theyll join and tag along. Its how the Celtics got players in the big 3 era
Odd, Kyrie left BOS when we were vying for Davis (another big slot anticipating a nax resign) and could have stayed here and gotten KD to join him here but opts for BKN and brings KD there ... Why did it matter where the two played together if that was the important thing?

It's too darn cold and Brighton Beach is more sexy than Nahant beach? One woman told WPIX, "We are not about sex, we are not about drunk people, not about vodka, not about violence," but another said, "I grew up around here, I'm not Russian but ... I think it's a little accurate. It's ridiculous that people say it's too sexy, because Brighton Beach is a hot pot and sex sells."

Don't recall saying he was coming back.. I just pointed out the reasons he left. Nothing to do with Ainge or Stevens just better scenery and.... Better weather..

The Celtics could be dummies again and let Stevens run Brown into the ground like he did IT.. The regular season is a second thought the playoffs count.

If we only had one player that was feared , Players sometime take on the persona of their coach especially if they are young. Does Stevens look like a tough ass or a pussy?

He never chose to play here, he was traded. He’s from NJ, probably feels like he’s playing for him hometown team. Don’t think that can be overlooked. Also for the fact that AD was pretty clear that he’d never sign here regardless

But prior to signing with GS, KD was said to be interested in C's as well. I realize that KI wasn't here yet but once KI was here, being friends and all, he had to know the extent of interest KD had in BOS and could very well have formulated a plan for the 2 to hookup the following year rather than opt out for BKN and then try to get KD to come there. As I remember, KD wasn't all gungho on going to BKN and wanted another venue before ultimately agreeing to BKN.
All I'm saying is that KI had as good of an opportunity to partner in BOS as anywhere else with KD. He knew Danny wanted KD too. So he dissed the C's/Ainge and risked messing up the entire partnership to play for NJ where KD had no ties or inclination to do so ... in fact, the Nets were a mess having blown their wad on KG/PP and ownership was bailing out. That couldn't have been easy for KD to agree to given the failures of that franchise since the move to NY.

I think when kyree got here the Jays let him know Boston was their team in no uncertain terms. It certainly wouldn't have been a situation where they could have kept the Jays and brought in Durant
I think j and j see themselves as Gene and Paul, and the rest of the team is Peter Chriss and ace frehley (replaceable)
Well, and Marcus has ownership and their respect

I would prefer not grovel before athletes like KI and KD...
...for the privilege of paying them $40/mil/year/each to come play in my town.
F--k 'em both.
If they are happy in Brooklyn.... I'm happy for them both.... so stay there!
To paraphrase the noted philosopher Hunter Thompson.... You buys your ticket, then you takes your ride.

My KD poster from okc still hangs upside down in my room. So far he's done nothing to earn it going up again.

Ya, Im sure if Kyrie wanted to actually play here then KD wouldve had serious conversations about coming here. But Kyrie has ties to BKN so they went there. I dont think BKN is a super attractive market otherwise, just like Lebron in Cleveland. Thats just how the league is, AAU mentality. Makes it less interesting, Boston is a great basketball/sports city obviously. But NBA players just dont care about that

Its now their team and they still arent ready to lead it 3 years later.

Deserved or not, I think both gordon and Kyrie got that message Ya for sure, I think a lot of us blamed Kyrie when maybe he was kinda right on that subject. I don’t think Kyrie is a good leader either so it’s a tough situation
