2024 NBA Season

[Theb]

With or without Kyrie Irving, LeBron James will not waive his no-trade clause this season.

Yup he will be a free agent in 2018 anyways. No sense of running away with the team now, I mean could you imagine 2 of the teams stars wanting to go away from Cleveland? After 2 failed championship attempts. Well this team is already experiencing a lot of pressure as they did not have any major improvements at all just signing back up players with no impact. Also it is kinda Cleveland's fault including Kyrie's name on trades for Paul George and Jimmy Butler.

Kyrie Irving maybe wants to prove something or want to create his own team, he understand very well that if he will stay in cleveland where Lebron James is the main man then there is no way he will shine. It's not just about the money but also the fame, Lebron is not getting any younger anymore and there should be a player who will be the next best player in the NBA and Kyrie believe he can compare curry on that matter.

It's clear that Uncle Drew wants a name for himself and doesn't want to play second fiddle to anybody anymore. He wants to be the guy who dictates the terms, much like what Lebron has been doing everywhere he goes. So he thought the best way around that is to request for a trade which I hope would push through so we can really see how much more growth can Kyrie show in his young career.

i dont think Kyrie is ready to play under first number in team, as Westbrook, Harden or others. Uncle Drew is very good players and has amazing dribbling and crossovers but i am sure he cannot be only leader in his team

He is a point guard and he controls the ball most of the time so if he really is a good player he knows how to set his teammate to have
an open look and to eventually improve their shooting. Whatever team he will land, one thing is sure he will be very valuable maybe more than
in cleveland.

I admit the kyrie is a good point guard. He has a very good skills on dribbling and passing on an open team mates. But still he lacking a leadership to his teammates unlike Lebron. It is good for him to venture out on other teams so that he can get a lot of experience compared on what he is now behind LBJ.

[bhadz]

So that is now official that Kyrie can't really take it to play with Lebron anymore.

BREAKING NEWS:

Kyrie Irving Requesting Trade From Cleveland Cavaliers

I verified first the story and I found it legit. To the link I provided, Im just disagree to the last part "Is this the end of LeBron James’ era?" LOL. Cavaliers with Kyrie when Lebron is not yet returning to The Land never entered the playoffs for 3 season and his first playoff experience just started when Big 3 of Cavaliers was formed.

Just amazed that even he already experienced championship, still he will give up his max contract in Cleveland worth lots of $$$$$$ in 2019.

Kyrie's now moving to SAS I don't know if that is official as I've seen it to basketball pages on facebook. Good luck to the Cavs now, they need to replace Kyrie's power.

its a big challenge to lebron. I think lebron will not agree with it. Its his big challenge without kyrie. But if their team will trade player they have to make sure that that player will have kyrie's skills or better than kyrie but kyrie's skills will always be unique.

So I was a bit late about this news and Kyrie is finally moving to a new team but there is still no official announcement if that is going to be at SAS. Cavs is still strong guys, it's a trade and Cavs will not let their guard down and reduce their strength. They've got Paul George right in trade for Kyrie? Hope that Love will remain.

So what, it's gonna be a GSW dynasty? Seems to me Kyrie doesn't want to be the 2nd man anymore. A big blow to the Cavs.

I guess so or it is not. There's a lot of teams that adjusted their rosters but I can say that GSW is still as good as this last season. It's just a trade so there will be another player to replace Kyrie Irving. He just sick of being an underling of Lebron James and now wants to be a superstar and he wants to make it happen with SPurs.

It's not just about the money but also the fame, Lebron is not getting any younger anymore and there should be a player who will be the next best player in the NBA and Kyrie believe he can compare curry on that matter.

Exactly. This is want I'm talking about. He doesn't want to be known as the sidekick to Lebron. He want's to build himself his own team and make a name for himself. Maybe its not all about the money, and the championship anymore because he already got it. Its all about putting his name as one of the greats and can be compare to Curry since they are like both in the same age.

I don't think the James will leave the Cavs as well. He will stay there for as long as he is happy with the management and the team.

[tabas]

So Kyrie Irving is tired of being a sidekick to Lebron James and wants to shine without a superstar? Or become a main man?

Probably he is and now wants to make his break and while it is still early let's see if he can shine alone with his new chosen team. I think he wanted to become a main man and that's why he is making sure that he will get out first with his former team. And also I'm thinking that he lost his faith that Cavs can hit championship.

I think he is disappointed with the result of the NBA finals. Remember they climbed back from 1-3 deficit and won. GSW must be very disappointed with the results but they remain intact and added a another piece, which is Durant. However, on the contrary Kyrie left and look for a new team. Well San Antonio is not a push over, but in ever they face GSW in the semis next season, he will still see the ghost of GSW again. So think the reason for leaving is:

1. He doesn't want to be just a sidekick to Lebron
2. He doesn't trust that the Cavs can win the championship again with the current team
3. He has beef with Lebron that pushes him to go out and look for other team

If I were in his shoe I will feel disappointed too. He's one of the biggest hope for the whole Cavaliers and that's why he thinks that Cavs will feel sorry about it. Rumors are saying and articles on social media says that Spurs is going to be the choice of his heart. This season is giving me some excitement and I can't wait to see this start.

I don't know why people looking forward for irving ,he won't win another ring in cleveland. They won it because Lebron won it. When cavs lose, his teammates garbage and he has no help and LeBron did to Cleveland then more then what he did in Miamu he mad that after irving requesting a trade he will have it harder to leave cavs next season when they won't have irving if traded. Not that he cares but then he would have a better excuse of cavs having won a ring and still having an all star caliber player in irving. Irving knows lebron would bolt any moment and will be stuck in Cleveland with Jr smith and Thomson.

Man Irving is close to our hearts, he's one of the biggest contributor in Cleveland. Look on how he's scoring when Lebron is not on his game. His one of the best assets in the league and we'll we are just feeling sorry about Cav's decision that his going to move and will let go by them.

Real NBA Fan would understand how Irving's contribution for the cavaliers to win the championship in the past, Irving deserve to be treated like a real superstar, he might be at the same level of Lebron James but I am pretty sure he can still improve his talent since he is still young.

The Wizards have signed Potter for 4 year making a $106.5 million max contract making him.the highest paid player next season at $24.8 million for the Wizards all i can say after this move is RIP Wizards honestly i have no idea why teams constantly are willing to pay guys who barely move the needle.

That's a big contract for Potter.

I don't know why there are teams that are paying big if they can get some rookies who are playing good.

Well we can't interfere with their decisions. It's their money.

There's big difference about Rookies and big contract old players. The rookies are under observeation if their performance will click with the season. Because other rookies were beast in their collegiate league but suffering in adoptation in the world of NBA. If the team wants to win the season they have to pay with it. Its their passion every players continuing improve themselves as their dream to bwcime a star.

Look on how much Derrick Rose' contract supposed to be in Cavs.. only $3.5 M if I'm not mistaken.

But well this is how the NBA management gives contract to the rookies, it's bigger than the older ones.

Because they are more powerful and has still strength to play better.

Because Derick Rose is not the same anymore. Post injury shows that he's explosiveness is somewhat not the same and plus he is injury prone. Last season he didn't complete the full 83 games if I'm not mistaken and miss a lot of (crucial?)games. If he is the same Rose that we knew when he once burst into the NBA, then he will surely get max contract and still with the Bulls. If he can proved after 1 season with Cavs then surely they will re-sign him with bigger contract.

Update:

I've read on a reliable page on facebook that today Derrick Rose is about to meet the Cleveland Cavaliers.

And as we expect, he's about to sign his contract. It's final I guess.

Wow, that's quite big, I hope those injured point guard like D will and D rose will make this team even better.
Rose needs to prove if that is true because he is playing with the king.

yeah this move is not be SO bad as they will get Kyrie replacement and if they get a good return for Kyrie. I mean there's a really good chance that they will be in a bad situation next offseason, but at least this coming season could be entertaining. News says that the player had his medical at cleveland today so it is more likely to be officialy announced very soon while the Cavs are looking to slavage Irving trade buy getting futurBlue  Chip Young Player As Centerpiece In his Trade just like Phoenix Suns did with Goran Dragic.

Injuries are always not expected and they tend to disorganize a team so I think the cavs should go ahead and get some new guys especially if they can trigger Kyrie and a few young chaos to join in the absence of the injured.

Yes it will be a bigger chance for the finals and I hope kyrie will consider spurs this season. It will be a higher pecentage that irving will get a ring again if he pick spurs.

No I dont think that irving wil get a ring again, because there were players better than with spurs team to pick of. Well the chance to get into finals were really been difficult for each team and the game match will be into pressure of every player head. With regards to kyrie there is no room for him for him to spurs due to his playing style doesn't improve a lot compared to those promising players, and definitely he begun to became slow in actions.

I don't think that Pau Gasol will be the big three in Spurs. It will be Leonard, Aldridge and Irving. Pau duty their will be a backup for LaMarcus in the center position. It's a good move though for Pau to stay with the Spurs to win another ring if ever Kyrie will moved there. As long as San Antonio remains healthy, I'm sure they will be a contender in the West with or without Irving. But Irving moving will give them a good chance to compete with Golden State for supremacy in the West, but we don't know if Kyrie could be the one that will bring San Antonio another ring next season. This remains to be seen.

Can he blend with Leonard in similar fashion as Lebron? Or will he try to be the franchise player of San Antonio that he is hoping he can get? Can he stay healthy? There are still a lot of questions here that can only be answered once he finalized the deal and see him in black jersey with the Spurs.
