If Kyrie ends up resigning I don't think the worst case scenario of the deal is too bad. Has potential to be now though! Guess I won't know how I feel about the trade for a couple years lol.

 

[BlackGhost]

All part of the Master plan to get Lonzo.

 

[SCChappy]

Cavs couldn't even get borderline all star Greg Monroe

what a failure

 

[LionPride]

My phone broke this morning so I just got this news




NIGGA HOW WHAT AHHHHHH

 

[mjp2417]

Cavs couldn't even get borderline all star Greg Monroe

what a failure

That's what the Nets pick is for

 

[SyenceLabb]

Bad move by the Cavs. Kyrie about to get engaged on defense. This is the year.

 

[SyenceLabb]

What's more likely to happen... Cavs flip and package the 1st round pick to try to get another player, or keep it as insurance if LeBron bolts?

How was the rookie on Lebron? I didn't actually watch that series. It's gonna be him and

Spoiler

Morris

on him, right?

EDIT: Bill Simmons podcast is up.

Kyrie and defense aren't even dating, though.

They are already banking on LeBron leaving
Anything less than winning a title = bye bye so it's certain now
KD will be more hungry if he's two titles from being even with LeBron and 3 from being better than him 😈

Keep it I'd say. Lebron is leaving and I don't see anyone out there that will put them over Golden State.

There is nobody realistically available that is worth that pick.

Nets will still suck probably so the pick is more valuable than ever, unless next year's draft class is bust.

 

[Duxxy3]

Not a huge fan of this trade. The Celtics lost part of their identity today.

 

[Line_HTX]

Nice giant font there, BG.

[darkwing-buck]

If the Cavs give the pick up for these geezers then they already lost.

 

[SCChappy]

Lebron + pick for Monroe

who says no

 

[random25]

Lebron + pick for Monroe

Bucks will feel like they were robbed for that deal. Add TT in there at least.

 

[K.Jack]

I'll miss Kyrie.

Boston in 6.

 

[TTG]

The Cavs just got from under like a billion dollars of salary tax, they're not about to trade that pick for a high payed dude.

IT and Crowder ? Fucking barf

 

[darkwing-buck]

Only way Cleveland trades the pick for a star is if they know LBJ is signing for the long haul. No way should they let LBJ keep their franchise hostage another year.

 

[Bread]

Just realized that this trade is the culmination of the rebuilding effort for Danny. He trades KG, Pierce, Rondo, and a 1st and got back Kyrie, Brown, and Tatum. What an incredible turn around.

 

[El Topo]

*wakes up*
*checks r/nba*
....wait, what?

 

[darkwing-buck]

 

[jdstorm]

That pick may be reasonably worthless. If Brooklyn is healthy they could be in the 30-40 win range and that would push that pick in the 10-15 range.

 

[Bread]

Crazy. Still in shock.

 

[El Topo]

*sips his morning coffee*
*reads r/nba again*
...what? This offseason guys. This offseason.

*Checks current Nets roster*

40 wins is too ambitious for that team, and good luck to them reaching 30.

No team with Allen Crabbe has ever won fewer than 41 games

 

[Sanjuro]

How many game covers can we hold?

 

[True Savior]

Finally Al Horford gets the help he deserves.

 

[BlackGhost]

Y'all remember when that stuff happened yesterday?.....

 

[BajiBoxer]

Bad move by the Cavs. Kyrie about to get engaged on defense. This is the year.

Hahahaha!

Seriously though, when one of your superstars is unhappy it generally doesn't work out too well. Cavs made out great here, all things considered.

 

[TuXx]

I'll lmao if Celts turn back to a lottery team with Kyrie

 

[BajiBoxer]

Y'all remember when that stuff happened yesterday?.....

I just woke up and found out about it. I like what we got in the trade, and Kyrie will stop dividing the locker room with flat earth theory debates. Still, he will always be one of my favorite players due to The Shot. I'm going to be riding that championship high for a long time.

 

[BlazinSkatinAxel]

Now we will see how Kyrie plays with an actual coach.

 

[LyleLanley]

Still have the Lakers/Kings pick.

I'll lmao if Celts turn back to a lottery team with Kyrie

Barring catastrophe I don't see how this team isn't at least good for the next few years.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Cavs would be stupid to trade that pick without Lebron committing first.

 

[LyleLanley]

Looks like Kyrie won't have to change his Nike logo.

 

[pislit]

I'll lmao if Celts turn back to a lottery team with Kyrie

Only if half of the roster gets injured.

 

[Sanjuro]

Looks like Kyrie won't have to change his Nike logo.

Wow. Kyrie is a huge piece of shit. Disrespecting Dana Barros like that.

 

[TuXx]

DWade coming off the bench wouldn't be a bad look for the Cavs

 

[BlackGhost]

Ainge has been very out of control this offseason.
