Despite the Nets and Kyrie Irving hitting an impasse in their talks, both sides are still working to find a happy medium in Brooklyn rather than an exit strategy out of it. Or as a source told The Post “what’s good for both [sides].”

Who is the best individual talent the Nets can get back in a deal for Kyrie (if we get there)? Sure there are some packages, but who’s the best ONE player they can feasibly get back in a deal? – 12:20 PM

Been some early morning developments and it’s only Tuesday. Obviously yesterday was the latest in Kyrie Irving’s potential departure from Brooklyn. I suggested last week that adding Irving would be an abrupt shift that Clippers don’t have to do

The biggest variable in whatever happens between Kyrie and the Nets is how KD reacts.
Evidence from the past 3 years indicates where this is heading, unless something has dramatically changed. ziller.substack.com/p/how-kd-figur… – 8:51 AM

More on this storyline
Several league sources said the perception is that this is a game of poker being played by Irving to bluff Nets GM Sean Marks into concessions, as The Post reported Monday. An ESPN report Tuesday concurred, and most around the league feel a return to Brooklyn is the most probable end result. -via New York Post / June 22, 2022
Brooklyn can make up to 15 percent of Irving’s next contract — about $6 million — payable as “unlikely bonuses,” affording 10 times the protection in his current deal. But sources implied the length of the deal is more of a sticking point than the money; Irving wants a longer contract, while the Nets prefer a shorter one. -via New York Post / June 22, 2022
Jon Krawczysnski: Most people around the league seem to believe that eventually Kyrie Irving and Brooklyn will sort of figure their stuff out -via Spotify / June 22, 2022
