I normally don’t read much into these comments, but THAT would have to seem he’s close to coming back. Either that or an ultimate troll job by Richards

I would REALLY hope this isn't Nick's attempt to make a joke. These players know this is important to the fans. If I was a player, I'd like to think I'd have the decency to not even make a comment like this, if it wasn't a real possibility. Then again, I was pretty immature for a 20 year old.

He’s gone and I won’t believe He’s coming back until he checks into a game next year.

Y’all i don’t think he’s specifically “trolling fans”.

He put an eye emoji on his on social media lol. It’s not really on Nick to think and dissect every emoji he puts on social media.

He’s gone. It makes sense for him to go. It’s on the fans for stalking and over analyzing the dudes social media.

It would be one thing if he was making numerous posts/ quotes etc heavily heavily hinting at returning and then being like “lol! Jk haha!” But he’s not doing that.

Nick and Quickley were the two best players on the team by far. It would be great if they returned, but I can't bemoan them leaving after star level seasons. We got our money's worth, if you will.

About half of this thread reads like:



"Whaaaah! Nick's getting our hopes up! Whaaah! He posted an eye! Whaaaaah!"

My thoughts. Was thinking maybe I couldn’t see the whole convo.

Get a grip people.

Yup. NR has given us three years and quite a few awesome moments. (My personal favorite being against UL this year). He hasn’t done anything to troll, at least as of yet. Posts like the one he’s made today are posts he and all other KIDS deserve to make. Let him feel and look like the badass he is for a day before he gives his decision, and let’s not overreact.

Well, we KIND of got our money's worth. They both had breakout years, but were cut short. We didn't REALLY get our moneys worth, we got to the movie's climax, but never finished it.

However, fans need to realize that's just the way this year went. It sucks we didn't get to see all the fruits of the labor, so to speak.. but we can't put that on the players.

I think that's why this feels like even a bigger kick to the nads. It's almost like this year was no different than the one where we went to the NIT. Sure we know we were better, we won bigger games, too. But the end result, no different.

As a lot of people said, this means nothing. Immanuel, Ashton, and Tyrese all posted highlight videos after the season. This is the same. It's more of a "season wrap-up" than a hint of what he will do (obviously).

I’m not sure what’s more ridiculous: the fact he would say that knowing it would get people’s hopes up, or the fact that him doing it gets people (myself included) so wound up.

I think the latter.


I get what you’re saying but I agree, the latter.
