Kyrie Irving has asked the Cavs to trade him; Lebron blindsided by trade request

[CrimsonTider]

Bulls fans would you rather be where you at right now or Kyrie and Butler?

what kind of question is this?

 

[LurkMoar]

bigger role? Kyrie wants more shots? you cant get no more unless you go full westbrook is that what he wants?

 

[Henry Orbit]

Miami is a preferred destination?

He must miss playing in the backcourt with Waiters

 

[Karume]

maybe it's lowkey been kyrie sabotaging the cavs this off season

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Only way the dumbass Knicks pull this off is by trading Melo and at least 2 future 1st rounders...

Cleveland would be dumb as fukk not to accept that...

Knicks are a perennial 20-30 win team and Cleveland already knows Kyrie can't carry a team...If Bron walks that's potentially 4 guaranteed top 10 picks in the next 2 years since Cleveland gon be ass...

 

[Verbal Kint]

Very true.

Yes the Cavs HAVE BEEN successful. Past tense here. But what moves are they collectively making as a franchise to win? The Cavs talent is concentrated in two players and the franchise is STUCK.

This past offseason has been crazy and has honestly reshaped the entire league. You're seeing front offices and players make risky moves to WIN.

Meanwhile, what player or focal member of the front office on the Cavs seems to have a decent plan for the next few seasons? Does Dan Gilbert look to be excited to have pay the luxury tax to win? Any new players looking to be future key members for the Cavs ala Patrick Mccaw or Dejounte Murray? Does Ty Lue look like a D'Antoni-esque offensive genius?

The Cavs are two steps behind all of the major front offices. All of their power is consolidated with LeBron who is unchanging in his methods. You cannot win the 'chip in todays NBA like that. I think this past season the rest of the NBA (with a few exceptions cough* the Knicks*) realized this. shyt i personally see Boston coming out of the East from now on TBH.

They're stuck being a Finals favorite, I guess. Yea, they made win now moves but that's what literally every contender does. The Thunder traded Harden to give themselves room in the future and how'd that work out for them?

 

[He Who Posts Well]

bigger role? Kyrie wants more shots? you cant get no more unless you go full westbrook is that what he wants?

Why doesn't he just wait until LeBron leaves. He can get as many shots as he wants then.

 

[GetInTheTruck]

I wouldn't want Kyrie on the Knicks tbh. Rather stick with the rebuild and enjoy the fukkery.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Who give a fukk, Kevin Love and the rest of the guys are trash. If he's teamed with Kawai or someone like Porginzis, or in Minnesota, he won't be going 4-23 period

Love won 40 games in the West with Rubio as his 2nd best player and the worst bench in the league. He's got more non LeBron bonafides than Kyrie

Inside hoops Twitter...

Coli detectives doin work

 

[MikelArteta]

Cavs r done
LeBron is as good a gone

Raps

 

[Roadie pipeher]

Minny is too young & the warrior with kd & Stephen don't have a batman/robin type of dynamic.

It's 1A/1B

Look at kd/Westbrook
Look at Shaq/Kobe
Look at Shaq/penny
Look at Harden/Howard
Look at T-mac/vinsanity

How many stars wanna play the sidekick when they can be that dude?

why don't the warriors have? that? cause they get along?
wiggins is in his third year(extension on deck)/butler/kat ..someone is robbin
Westbrook/george
Harden/cp3

everything is trending opposite of what you are saying..

 

[T.he I.nformant]

No one wants to listen, breh.

It's a good deal for both teams, right? Might have to get creative around the salary but it could work.

 

[hayesc0]

kyrie game is suited for the western conference

i say phoenix that guards they can shipped to cleveland

I think cavs should see if they can get Chandler/Bledsoe in a trade.

 

[Guile]

NBA finals here we come.

Hmm. Realt talk matchup wise in the playoffs this could work.
