No simp. Read this slow.

I said I can evaluate all players from an unbiased POV. I can.

I also said I don’t bash my guys publically. I do not.

The two are not related. My talent evals skills. And my decision to not bash my guys online. Not related at alll. But that’s about the only kinda Ws you can claim on BBB these days. It’s Sad bro.

Boom concedes that this board he is biased.

Got it, thanks.

This is most likely, but at the time, he certainly chose Houston.




The original contention asserted by Boom was that CP3 chose Houston over Cleveland, which is false because Cleveland was never an option for him.

Uh Chris was an unrestricted free agent. Meaning he could have signed wherever he wanted to sign. ANY And EVERY team was an option. He opted back in to the last year of his deal so that he could be traded to CC. If Chris wanted to be in Cleveland this year they woulda found a way to make it work.

Lebron was already trying to trade kyrie whenever Cp chose CC. IF Chris hasn’t chosen to play w Harden over bron they coulda traded kyrie to the clips

Lebron could want all he wanted but the Cavs weren't about to trade Kyrie until he made his request known.

And that's my point, if the Cavs had known earlier about Kyrie wanting to be traded that's the trade that would've been made. Clippers do that trade in a second and it's been well known that CP3 and Lebron have always wanted to play together, not this idea of him preferfing to play with Harden. Harden was the best option because Lebron wasn't an option.

They were gonna trade kyrie and he found out they wanted to move him. That’s why he requested the trade. So your little order is arse backwards. They wanted to trade kyrie for George. He found out. Wanted out. If Paul wanted to go there Kyrie woulda been shipped to LAC whether he liked it or not.

And the Chris Paul and Lebron wanting to play together has been overblown. And that is straight from Chris.

You have a link for that about CP3/Lebron wanting to play together being overblown? Did he say that after he made it to Houston?

And every report I see says that the Cavs were the ones that rejected the PG trade.

I didn't see one quote in there from CP3 saying his desire to play with lebron was overstated.

This is what you do, you just outright make things up, saying it was straight from Chris.

If Boom doesn’t BOW to AD yet continues to suck Harden’s dick then he’s a basketball hypocrite who has ZERO respect for the game and contradicts himself every time he argues something about basketball greatness ie he’s a fraud. YOU WILL BOW, BOOM.

Kyrie thought Lebron wanted him traded, but it was never so. Just a casual fan take from Boom.

quote:

"There was excitement in Cleveland for the pieces the Cavs got in the Irving trade. But as the season has unfolded, second-guessing has been developing. James himself was publicly supportive, but it is no secret within the organization that he was against trading Irving after the demand (and well before the now-famous Arthur tweet). It's fair to wonder what might've happened had the Cavs simply told Irving, who was under contract for two more years, they weren't trading him, as the Spurs held the line with Aldridge."

From Kyrie himself :

“I didn’t feel the need to say anything because I knew the truth, and so did they,” he says. “So it didn’t matter what others said.”



Still, for a split second, Irving winces, as though someone has pricked him with a pin.



“They didn’t want me there,” he says.



Leave it to you to believe damage control king crab after it blew up on him. Bagdad Brn

He didn’t want to trade him AFTER the demand bc the George deal fell through so he wanted to keep him. Ground breaking news there bro.

So LeBron wanted David Griffin to stay...didn't happen. Now wanted Kyrie to stay...didn't happen.

He wanted Kyrie to stay after the George deal fell through. Of course. But he wanted to trade Kyrie when he thought he could get George. Then when the owner didn’t renew the gm contract the George deal fell apart. Well Kyrie at that point was hip to what Lebron was doing and said trade me or I will sit the season. Lebron coulda won his MVP Too this year. If it wasn’t for that debacle.
