My bad.

He had a Bacon double cheeseburger for dinner and hasn't dropped the kids off at the pool this morning.

Howdy, OT.
Hi my friend. There's hoping you are doing well.

He doesn't have a NTC but I think they'll try and trade him to one of his preferred destinations....
Why?

He doesn't give a shit about breaking up a Finals team.

Why should they care where he wants to play it that doesn't get them the best return?

The Spurs are his top pick.

They have Jack shit outside of Kawhi.

Why would the Cavs want Aldridge?

The Knicks giving up the Unicorn?

Minny might have a shot though...

But, to expect Wiggins to come help the guy who got him traded?

I wouldn't sign the extension to kill the trade if I were him.

They'd most likely play Irving at SG, no? Crawford will be the 6th man.
As currently composed, the starting lineup is supposed to be....

Kat - C

Taj - pf

Wiggins - sf

Butler - sg

Teague -pg

Crossover is already the 6th man.

I guess they could bump Jimmy to 3 and put Irving at sg.

But, I like what they already have better.

With that being said, trading for the guy Jimmy most wants to play with is probably the easiest way to get him to sign an extension.

In fairness, there wasn't a ton of talent on those teams before Love and James returned.

His teams were beyond atrocious and didn't even sniff the playoffs.

They aren't on his radar.

Doesn't really matter who's on Kyrie's radar. He's under contract until 2020. If Milwaukee were to present the best package to the Cavs, then Irving's likely going to be a Buck. Point being - Kyrie can have his list all he wants. Doesn't mean shit.

I'm not entirely convinced these reports are true, and even if they were I think Cavs fans are far more likely to forgive Kyrie since he played a big role in helping end the city's title drought.

@Mecca

Woj is literally reporting on this. Probably the most credible NBA reporter/insider in the world.
