HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

I don't see it as anything but window dressing. Harden and everyone else knows Kyrie can flake out at anytime, so I doubt he wants to go down that road again. Hopefully he's on his best behavior while he's here, but his reputation is already sealed.

Reputations ebb and flow.  The public will excoriate a player, then after, perhaps, an apology, sufficient time, and good performance, flip-flop back.

Diamond Powell?  A year ago, was the WORST player ever.  Just check the message boards.

Tiger Woods?  Seems to have made a pretty good comeback.

Kobe Bryant, after the "Colorado" incident?  A despicable human being.

Or, the reverse...

How high was Ja Morant's stock a couple of weeks ago?  And now?

Mavs were smart to buy low on Kyrie.

The public is fickle.
