Is that really that bad when the cavs have the fact that Irving wants out diminishing his value ?



Him wanting out doesn't do shit to his value, he's signed long term

It's not like the Paul George situation at all

I know, but it's going to be awkward as fuck to make him play with Lebron this year, and would give Lebron all the more reason to leave after this year

I don't think him being sour really will influence Lebrons decision.


I already think Lebron is probably going to leave Cleveland, regardless of if they win a ring or don't. He came to Cleveland and did what he set out to do, another ring is just icing on the cake, at this point he just wants to catch Jordan.

As far as Kyrie is concerned, he can rot on the bench if he wants. If he wanted a trade he should have asked for one before all the big name FAs landed

Agree it would have made so much more sense if he voiced this earlier.

Either way the cavs need to find a way to capitalize on both.

People act like this ain't part of Lebrons plan. Kyrie for lonzo then Lebron signs in LA next year. Or if he gets traded to the spurs. Lebron kyrie and kawhi. They will run with GS. Mark my words

Source: 1 trade being discussed
#Cavs get Melo/Bledsoe
#Knicks get Kyrie/Chandler
#Suns get Love/Frank

(Draft picks also involved)


lol wait what Kyrie AND Love what are you smoking

Cavs would get Melo and Bledsoe for just Kyrie

Other one I saw was to Bucks for Brogdon+Middleton+Maker which would be dope.

Kyrie to Miami for dragic/whiteside/winslow


Heat probably wouldn't even trade Whiteside for him straight up.

There are rumors that the Cavs have known Kyrie wanted out since like a week after the Cavs championship. And that Griffin was trying to make a package around trading Kyrie and that's part of why he was fired? Idk something like that.

Hard to know what to believe though when everyone contradicts each other.

Lol literally 0% chance.

If LeBron goes anywhere it's sure as fuck not gonna be to play with Kyrie.

Cavaliers superstar Kyrie Irving arrived at his reported decision to ask out of Cleveland the same way Justin Bieber chose to end his tour -- through long chats with pastor Carl Lentz of Hillsong Church ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Church sources tell us Kyrie, who's been an active member for a long time, met with Lentz earlier this month about his desires to step out of LeBron James' shadow. We're told Lentz didn't tell Kyrie to "leave Cleveland" -- instead he listened to Kyrie's concerns, and encouraged him to make the decision he felt was best.
There's a reason it sounds so similar to Justin's Purpose tour shocker -- Bieber, Lentz and Irving all hung out together in L.A. just over a week ago. You could say they were on Kyrie's turf ... playing pop-a-shot at Dave & Buster's.
