    If I were Cleveland, get all the assets you can get for Kyrie and Lebron now. All those assets plus Love should still keep you in the top 2 in the east or set up your team in the future. Depends on what you get.

    Not bad at all. Makes me think that Kyrie could be doing LeBron a favor by asking for a trade. There's no other way that this trade would be palatable to Cleveland fans and not universally panned by NBA fans and the media. LeBron the Godfather.

    The Rockets should get involve by sending Ryan Anderson to the Suns, and get Kevin Love in return.

    Actually yes it is. Why would Melo want to got to that Cleveland team?

    Melo has a player option in 2018. He is free to leave Cleveland if Lebron does too.

    That would be a good trade for the cavs. Not sure if it would be worth it for the Knicks

    I've said it before, but there's no denying if our own great players step up and win it would feel tenfold better instead of needing to sign the best player In the world to win....

    Lol, who cares if the knicks get kyrie mike. No one cares, it would be melo part two. How kyrie does not see it is beyond me.

    The truth is, I think kyrie is a little jealous of LeBron. He carried LeBron in the finals when they won and hit the biggest shot of the series. And yet everyone continue to talk about LeBron and he got all of the endorsements.

    I don't think Kyrie cares about waiting anymore and he just wants to be the leader and face of a major franchise like NY and that is why they are on the list. The spurs and wolves are great options as well because he can be the point guard for those teams.

    The good thing is la is not on the list.

    He should've requested a trade well before the draft.

    Teague already signed with Minnesota or else I'm sure they would consider giving them an offer.

    Ryan Anderson + Fillers for Kyrie

    Then flip Kyrie + fillers for Anthony Davis

    Paul
    Harden
    Ariza
    AD
    Capela

    Lol, forget teague. If they can get him without giving up one of their big three then get him. I seriously doubt they can though.

    It is hard who to say is worth giving up. Obviously wiggins is the only one they can at the moment outside of towns who is untouchable.

    My guess is the cavs want wiggins and the wolves say no.

    Still the possibility of

    Kyrie
    Teague
    Butler
    Gibson
    Towns

    Intriguing, but i like wiggins better because it maintains that minny length and the ball movement. Kyrie is a ball stopper.
