There’s hope that the mandates may be lifted when a new NYC mayor takes the office in January so the Nets are hoping that happens and/or he gets the jab.
I was thinking that the Nets should call his bluff about threatening to retire if he were traded and just trade him to the Rockets for John Wall. Nets would actually have to make the salaries match as Wall makes about $10M more but I think a healthy Wall is better than a risky Kyrie who might not ever play for the Nets again.

You lost me on trading as I know NOTHING about basketball hahaha
However, I think the Nets are making the right call. Having played Soccer/Hockey, having one player, regardless of skillset, in and out of line up is the right call.
My question, why wouldn't he want to be traded if that meant he could play?
