I just noticed that Kyrie joined the 50/40/90 club last season by the skin of his teeth.

That makes it sound like Kyrie knows Lebron is out and doesn't want to stick around. But his extension isn't that long. Maybe he undertstands he has the perfect tanking skillset, he can get buckets and the team can lose again and again

He's under contract for the next three years, it's long enough that I don't think any team would blush

They should trade him to Indiana, he can be the focal point there and languish in 8th seed land forever.

I'm pretty happy about this whole situation if it means the Cavs are a bit weaker but Lebron still remains a raid boss

When I die, I hope they say I made the eSports industry a better place than I made millions of dollars.
I can't think of a single trade at this point that would make sense for the Cavs and anyone else involving Kyrie.

Like others have said, what a poo poo time to make a trade demand.

Hmmm, but how can I make my own mark here in the league. I know, I'll make the unprecedented step of leaving Cleveland for Miami

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

I wonder if that means they'll have to stop taking money from agents and teams.

I just glad my dismissal of their rankings as I got into this is justified.

Lol at Kyrie demanding a trade because he no longer wants to play with LeBron. He'd still be a loving loser if LeBron never came back to Cleveland.

Maybe LeBron Delonte'd his sister.

I mean Celtics beat him that one year where Nike was pushing Lebron vs Kobe hella hard. I could see them making the Finals next year.
