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

[O.T.I.S.]

How you high and dry if LeBron leaves hypothetically? He would still have Kevin Love, he would still have that cast of role players, LeBron's cap hold would allow the Cavs to get an above average replacement and role players. And Kyrie would be up for a super max.

Maybe you should ask Kyrie that then

Whole situation got me watching to see what happens like this....

aint nothing gonna happen. Ty Lue needs to soothe things over. lebron needs to come have that big bro- lil bro talk. Lock him in a room ala Deandre Jordan and go from there.

This is it in a nutshell. I'm sure kyrie wants to be the man, but i think it has more to do with him knowing bron is gone next season and the cavs are a shyt organization so he's leaving sooner rather than later.

Cavs should trade Kyrie to Portland for Damien Lillard or to Phoenix for Bledsoe, Chandler, and Jackson

I don't think they can get Josh Jackson.


I could see Bledsoe, Chandler, Chriss......Or Bledsoe, Chandler, TJ Warren.....Bledsoe, Chandler, Multiple future 1st rd picks

This shyt is puzzling to say the least

I think someone got in Kyrie's ear, gassed him up a lil bit

That ain't how cap holds work. If Lebron leaves the Cavs will still be far over the cap and have no money to spend. So it would literally be the exact same team minus Lebron.

They definitely would be a great duo and could challange warriors especially with Pop still coaching. But kyrie's main beef is that he wants to be number 1 option and he won't be with kawhi

I think he wants his due shine (in his mind), and on the Spurs there won't be some super ego, it's a ball movement offense, while Kawhi is the best player on the team everyone knows he's humble as fukk and really doesn't care about ego n shyt. Pop would coach him and obviously improve his game, while possibly winning multiple titles w/Kawhi while being in a world class organization from top to bottom. And he prolly doesn't want to live in cleveland anymore lol

Man Fukk Chris Broussard

@ the thought of Phoenix doing that trade.

Cavs lose kyrie
and the EAST will be wide open
Wizards might even make the finals this year since Boston hasn't made any good moves.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

Might be time for the Nuggets to push that button. Offer Mudiay, Murray, Barton/Chandler, and Faried.

[Big Boss]

When kyrie signed his deal back in 2014, he didn't know lebron was coming back

Bron just got his 5th MVP guaranteed
