    Most of us wouldn't either but I actually like his confidence in this. It's good to see to me actually especiallly with all the followers being a trend these days in the league

    You might not trade franchise point guards, but guards that don't pass or play defense shouldn't be confused for franchise players.

    The Cavs have known about this for a week, and have been pretty clearly waiting until they had their front office situation in order to even look into it. Now because it leaked to the media, they're suddenly discussing trades without their front office finalised? Yeah.... no, doesn't mean they won't, but they could at least give him a cpl days to get some permanent staff in order before making up ****.

    In general seems like a logical trade but: 1) why would the suns want Love when they are so deep at PF? I know they were targeting Milsap & Griffin but those 2 can actually spend time at C, Love can't & 2) the Cavs are going from Kyrie & Love to Melo & Bledsoe? I know they'll still be a very talented team, and that change may actually appease Lebron, but that just seems like a downgrade, especially since they were previously unwilling to move Love for Melo, by all reports.

    Good idea. His selfishness would mess them up.

    Kyrie is one of the most overrated players in the NBA, the most one-dimensional player "star" out there. I don't want him, very fun to watch but not a winner

    Everyone thinks they can do it on their own...until they cant...Kyrie has zero idea on how hard it is to play without a player like Lebron. Lebron is a transcendent player, and most likely wouldve have been able to play in ANY era...But even in Lebron's greatness, he couldnt do it by himself.

    This is why the talk of Kyrie wanting to be the man is a bunch of bull..Rather it is that he really does see that Lebron peaces out next year, and he will be left holding the keys to a rebuilding franchise...he wants zero part of that.

    The Cavs have an opportunity to get the world from any team in the NBA for Kyrie. His value is at an all time high. That being said, If I am the Cavs, I would first get rid of Love at any and all costs...and get younger and athletic...
