    Or it's Dan Gilbert giving the ultimate comic-sans font F-YOU to LeBron on his way out. Cutting off his nose to spite his face. Meanwhile, I love all of this. Dan Gilbert and LeBron in a lose-lose? Sign me up!

    lol, the only one who didn't watch his games is u, gimme a break

    now you're going from he's not a starter to u won't win a chip with him as your best player...stop moving the goalposts...

    u said that most teams have a PG just as good if not better than IT which is incredibly ridiculous, if u had actually seen him play and checked his stats u would realize that that isn't the case...

    Because he is leaving and giving the team heads up. Actually a honorable move on his part. Houston or LA for sure if this trade goes down.

    Kyrie wanted out in large part to have his own team. Now going to Boston, a team with two other max guys, a couple very high draft picks from the last year few years, and the ultimate team>individual coach. Not exactly what he drew up...

    Horrible trade for Cleveland. Thomas is not a championship point guard. LBJ is for sure gone if this goes down. Plus Thomas is going to be a FA next summer. Are they really ready to pay him his max?

    Makes sense that the Cavs want Tatum as well. IT would just be a year long rental. If they don't include Tatum then it's gotta be a high draft pick.

    Or not. Guess the Celtics don't value that BKN pick anymore, with Atlanta, Chicago and Indiana tanking hard.

    Which busty prospect will Cleveland choose next? ;)

    2011: 1-1 Kyrie Irving | 1-4 Tristan Thompson
    2012: 1-4 Dion Waiters
    2013: 1-1 Anthony Bennett
    2014: 1-1 Andrew Wiggins (--> Kevin Love)
