It's seriously time to trade Kyrie Irving

[PleezeBelieve]

He simply does not play winning basketball on either side of the court.

Fact.

If just displayed average leadership on either side of the court then I would not be making this thread.

Trust me when I say this -- Kyrie does not play Cleveland Basketball. He's a fish out of water. He never should have been given free reign to put empty stats with no expectation to win. I think he's a lost cause in Cleveland. He needs to go somewhere with veterans that will force him to play within himselfevery ssecond he's on the court.

....

Why are Cavs fans so reaction. This team has been up and done all year. Why should this up time matter more than the others with Kyrie playing?

[Marlo_Stanfield]

they should trade Kyrie #Irving for JEremy Lin who is a better passer and PnR player and just as clutch. ten times the defender also.
then get maybe a backup Center or great 3 point shooter and make that offer to LeBron.
LeBron/Waiters/Varejao/Lin/Jack/Deng
maybe have to trade jack but Lin/Dellavedovy is very good anyway

[PleezeBelieve]

This is not a joke thread. Stay the fukk out with the bullsh*t responses

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Kyrie is arguably the worst defender in the league. That negates the offense he brings which isnt elite anyways. He doesnt add anything and he hasnt improved since his rookie season

Lin makes too much money

Lin makes too much money

8 against the cap and he will EASILY average 15/8-9 on that cavs team. he has 17/5 per 36 on an ultra selfish rockets team and he is an unselfish player

This is more like it.

While he is a terrible defender, I just don't think he's a finished product. He'sjust nnot ready to play defense at this level of basketball

I wouldn't want to pay him 8 a year. Not worth it IMO.

But you are on the right page tho

[PleezeBelieve]

Rondo
Conley
Lowry

Are the type of players this Cavs team needs.

Kyrie needs LeBran to hog the ball from him.

I'm gonna ignore PB because he's a troll and isn't actually a cavs fan but this is just ignorant. He's a better defender than Steph Curry that's for sure, and he's improved his passing and cut down on turnovers quite well.

Edit: In fact, he has a better A/TO ration than Steph Curry.

[PleezeBelieve]

Kyrie has one of the worst +/- differentials in the entire NBA.

What more you need when you see the team play like they did today?

Nash for Kyrie done deal
