In a shocking development that no one everyone saw coming, it looks like the Nets may be on the verge of implosion.
The Daily News’ Kristian Winfield just dropped a very newsy column on the tenuous state of the franchise. The biggest takeaways: The Nets are “outright unwilling” to give Kyrie Irving a long-term extension while Kevin Durant may now also be beefing with the front office — he has supposedly not spoken with team officials since the first-round sweep against the Celtics.
And if Irving declines his player option and walks this offseason, Winfield reports, there is a good chance Durant will follow him as the Nets slide back into irrelevancy.
