Boston adds 2nd round pick to finalize the Kyrie Irving trade

Yo please have the Celtics vs Cavs in the ECF next season, shyt will be lit!!!

That pick getting flipped for demarcus

You'd really have to think the Pels are gonna fail. Considering how many people LOVED that trade for them, I don't see that happening

 

[OnFleekTing]

Boston gave up a lot for a player who is basically IT but without the passing ability

 

[Reid2Achieve]

I wouldn't try it. With the bad contracts LeBron forced them to sign their role players to and the level of competition they are trying to overcome it's not worth it. Get a top 5 pick to go along with the all-star you acquired, let LeBron decide if it's worth leaving and if it is? You have 2 all-stars and a top 5 pick coming in to keep you relevant as you rebuild.

shyt is a no brainer for the cavs. They did a great job with this deal.

If Lebron leaves then IT is most likely leaving too. Then they will trade Love and all the vets for scraps

WTF Bron going to do with a draft pick

Use it to trade for another asset like did with Wiggins.

 

[Boogie]

They got fleeced long term but short term they're better


Cavs lost their 1B (1A at times/clutch times) scoring option

It's literally a two man game of Lebron/Kyrie now that's gone.. IT4 is a liability on D (even more than Kyrie)

DRose is a complete shadow of himself and will suffer even more setbacks

Boston won short term.. If Lebron leaves (which is still highly likely) the Cavs have pieces but nothing substantial

This is one of the worst Bron teams (on paper) in recent memory. At least the ECF will be interesting

IT can do everything Kyrie can do. And he did it as the 1st option with no help. Why do you nikkas think he is so damn trash?

 

[Crack Daniels]

Eh...looks like Danny cashed in all his chips on a lateral move. Woulda been better off holding out and seeing if NO would eventually bite on Anthony Davis

 

[tuckgod]

Irving, Hayward, and Horford is a cool lil Big 3 though..

edit: forgot about Tatum and Brown

 

[Houston911]

Y'all really underrating Kyrie man


You'll see.

I'm one of the biggest Kyrie fans there is

But this trade was horrible when u consider the deals ainge passed on

If by scraps you mean picks then yes word to hinkie

 

[levitate]

As a Cavs fan, I need some time to digest this trade.

 

[NoMorePie]

As a Spurs stan I'm

Chris Paul
George hill
Derrick rose
Kyrie Irving

Oh please believe that will change once the season starts . nikkas will be acting like he's a combo of his namesake, GP, and Steph just to spite Bron

So I guess Tatum is gonna start at the 4, hayward at the 3, kyrie as the 1, no idea on the 2. Ho at the 5.

Doesn't seem strong defensively.

Also he's gonna take away the hype from the great white hype.

Offense will be explosive but defense will suffer.

Kyrie - Jaylen - Hayward - Morris - Horford

Either that or Hayward at the 2 and Tatum at the 3.

I dont know if Boston got better.. thats thing with this.
