I have no idea if the numbers work and we don't need another injury prone player. That being said, sign me up!

I'd love him here. Kyrie would not only solidify us at PG but he's a name and associated with Nike so he'd bring butts into the seats.

You have a link with details? Kyrie wants out in the middle of a championship run? I'm not denying the talent or the likelihood that LeBron is an arse, but do we want to pay a king's ransom for someone that wants to leave a contender? Seems more likely someone that wants Kyrie sewing seeds of discord. I know one of the national guys has talked about Kyrie for CP3 making sense for both teams. Both teams get a star guard more closely aligned to the contention window of their other star.

He would snap all of his knee ligaments in the introductory press conference. Our training staff would give him Robitussin and hope that does the trick.

Why would you want Kyrie? He's not a good fit with Davis. Dude is a me player, only looks for his shot. No defense too.

I'd trade Jrue for Kyrie, but I would explode if we trade our 1st.

Holy shite. This is amazing. I don't want Irving (not for Jrue AND a first at least).

I'm just happy that shite is going down in Cleveland

Lebron isn't going to win there. He will have to bolt again for Miami if he wants a chance at a championship.

Dan Gilbert sucks as an owner. He gave in too much to Lebron's demands.

I would listen for Jrue. I would hang up over the first rounder. We need to hold on to draft picks moving forward to build and get better. Teams will no longer be giving up younger cost controlled players that you actually want to have on your team.

Take a look at the end of our bench right now with all the older vets and guys in their final stop. It's a result of constantly trading our building pieces. We need some development youth on that bench.

Why would anyone want Kyrie over Jrue? Kyrie is a scoring pg. Jrue gets AD involved.

don't see how anyone could possibly not want Kyrie... even if he is a scoring point guard he would have a great upside with Ad. He is so good at getting past the first defender and drawing help which creates dump downs to AD.

Because Cleveland is going to want more than Jrue and our 1st. We probably don't even have the assets to get what they could get on the open market. Boston, Denver, and Philly are all collecting assets to turn into a star player, so if Kyrie hits the market I'd assume we'd be behind at least 2 of those teams in what we have to offer.

You people haven't learned anything if you want to trade another draft pick for an injury prone, defense averse, shoot first point guard
