No! No! I’m right!

Actually I’m right.

Thank you for the idea, do you have any tips on the tallest TV antennae

Or that by focal point, he means “most famous player”

Melo for Irving is so gloriously bad for all parties involved that I hope it happens.

To be fair, I understand that desire to be the man. And if that’s what he wants, that’s fine! Just saying that to list the Spurs, with that excuse, is demented. It’s either nonsense or shows a complete lack of understanding about the Spurs organization.

I understand, but at the same time ... what does he want? There are zero teams he can be traded to that have a better chance of beating Golden State than the Cavaliers do. Sure, that’s still not a great chance, but look at his choices. New York? Minnesota? Miami? Give me a break.

He’a part-time ball-star.

Could the inclusion of the Knicks be a (not so) subtle fuck you to e.g. Dan Gilbert? Like, “Holy shit, I hate it here so much that even the dumpster fire in Madison Square Garden is preferable to this place?” Or do you think he just didn’t think things through?

Kyrie’s the real architect of the title. If the Cavs don’t suck hard enough under Kyrie, they don’t get the number one pick, which could be flipped for Love, which lures LeBron home.

Agreed. His handles are out of this world, and he can finish below the rim with the best in league history imo. But goddamn does he love playing some matador, ole, defense.

That’s exactly what I fixated on towards the end of the article. It seems Kyrie’s arrogance is on a whole different level than I thought.

What are you talking about? When he was top dog in Cleveland, he proved he can lead a team to 64 wins... over 3 seasons.

One of his preferred destinations is the Spurs ... a team with a guy who is already better than Kyrie will ever be, and also a team that has spent two decades being “that team that shares the ball a ton and doesn’t ever let anyone just pound it for twenty seconds and then take an off-balance three.”

There are times when he looks like the best player in the league, and then there are times when he’s on defense.

I think the Knicks can solve two problems by trading noted malcontent and meeting-skipper Porzingis for Irving.

It fell apart because Dan Gilbert is a crap owner who fell into one of the luckiest draft lottery streaks of all time.

How did shit fall apart so quickly for Cleveland?

HE NEVER WOULD HAVE LEFT JORDAN

“Kyrie wants to get out before the collapse” makes more sense to me than “Kyrie wants to be the focal point”. I guess Irving thinks he’s better than I do.
