Kyrie Irving Thanks Cleveland Cavaliers Fans

""My special thank you to Cleveland" *Link in Bio. My love extends way beyond the court I have for Cleveland and it will always be a place thats special because of the great people and experiences. The Ups and downs, we stand and fight no matter what the circumstances are, and that's what being in Cleveland embodies, it is all Love and a whole lotta pride. To the incredible individuals I've met who support the Cleveland organization and help allow us as Players to feel a special bond to the State/City and shared countless moments with, keep being YOU and know that my appreciation is eternal. Thank you From my whole being for being there as I was a 19 year old kid coming into the league, to now where I start another step in the journey as a 25 year old Evolving man. It will Always be Love and respect Cleveland. "The journey is always the Reward" #KyrieWick"

Cleveland Cavaliers fans will definitely miss this young guy but they have to accept that no Uncle Drew will be played on Cavs jersey this upcoming season. But hey Cavs fans already knows the feeling of being left so I think they will not bitter by this trade. Respect as always and thanks this guy for his distribution on Cavs franchise.

Yes it's different when LBJ left Cavaliers so I think acceptance will just be an easy task for Cavaliers fans now that Kyrie Irving left.

He wants a new journey so let's just respect this without linking Lebron James shadow issue because Irving must accept that if no Lebron James, no such thing as Cavaliers will make their first NBA champ. It's a team play and every Cavs players contribute to that championship. Now a new chapter for Irving and goodluck. Can't wait to watch the season opening. It will be a blast.

Can't wait for the start of the next season. This should be another exciting one as more players are showcasing their talents for different teams. I would love to see Kristaps Porzingis takeover the New York Knicks and unleash the full potential and hopefully become an All-Star. The West is still pretty predictable with the Warriors looking stronger than ever, while the East could be anybody's ballgame, given how the Bucks, the Wizards, and of course the Celtics have gained confidence in the last playoffs, but the Cavs could prove to still be the best in the East after all that's been said and done.

I've been excited to see the start of this season to see on how everyone is doing with their practice, adjustments with the new rosters and teammates. I'll keeping an eye all the time with Bucks, I just want to see this NBA league not to be dominated by the same team each season, give some doors to the new outstanding teams but they need to work harder.

I think Kristaps Porzingis will be playing not to win but to increase his market/trade value, remember New York Knicks did not intend to keep him this off season as they are willing to trade for him even for a higher pick. Right now Porzingis is showing that he is one of the best players in New York but if he wants that max contracts he needs to show more this upcoming season and before the trade deadline.

If that his agenda for playing today since NBA is big business it's his choice. As some players are playing for their glory and own playing style. Putting his own potential for a better team with a better contract is a win-win situation for him. But let's see as each NBA player has their own distinction when it comes to contract and playing.

Bucks, Sixers (and maybe Celtics!) are the future of the Eastern Conference no doubt about it, the likes of Raptors, Bulls and Knicks are all falling off the wagon. The Knicks do have a young pair to develop for the future but with all due respect to Knicks fans, they always seem to find a way to screw it all up so I never hold my breath for them.

Another young team with a lot of heart is the Hornets, they don't have star players but their core is solid, they just need a couple of good players to make the jump to the next level.

I guess Bucks is already ripe and they can now dominate the eastern conference. There are so many uprising players in the league.

And with the Hornets, I don't have any thoughts with them but since you had mentioned them.

I will going to take a look at it.

I think the sixers are also a young team. There rooster has only 2 veterans and of them is jj redick. But they have 3 number 1picks in the last 4 years so i guess they can have a good rebuilding team this year. I just hope they would not disappoint fans because there rooster are have at least 1 year experience. Emdid Saric Simmons and FUltz are there main contender maybe so i hope they can still do better this season.

they showed little improvement last season and you are correct if the management and coaches do a lot more this line up can compete and for sure if they got a little more composure they can make it into the playoffs but being champion would be needed a lots of experience as cavs and celtics still have their super teams but let see how they will manage to play with them.

We have to remember that the Sixers showed flashes of brilliance and consistency during certain stretches of last season, even prompting Joel Embiid to declare that they are ready for the post season. I think we are barely scratching the surface with these group of talented young guys and the sky is the limit for them if they can keep themselves healthy and be on the same page. There will be sacrifices to be made on number of touches but that would all be part of the growth and maturity to bring Philly back to relevance.

Next season probably. The Sixers is a team full of young talent but without a capable leader. They're gonna waste it all unless their management decides to do something about it.

100% agree, Sixers have a huge potential to be a great team in the future, they need a leader and some expierence, very young team but their starting 5 is going to be very fun to watch. I expect great things from Embiid and Fultz this year.

Harden has plenty of talent but he has no will to win or persevere, at least yet in my opinion, we'll see how Chris Paul affects his game, either positively or negatively.

Harden is a choker and he proved it many times during playoffs (first time when their team reached NBA finals for the first time).

Look at some videos in their recent playoffs match against the San Antonio Spurts. Honestly they owned Spurs and can advance to West finals to faced the Golden State Warriors but Harden's attitude came again. If anyone who is Harden fans here and can't believed on my sayings, try to watch some of it's "obvious error" during their last game against the Spurs in which we don't know if he really wants to win or not. Totally a crap performance that game after having a good stats in their previous games.

Yeah he chalked but Lebron is also a choker but I understand the situation of Harden because he is the only one who is making an effort for his team.
Now, that he had Chris Paul which I think a clutch man, he does not need to manage the crunch time, he is just gonna do his thing and let Paul manage the rest.

Been reading this recent news about the recent big trade between Cavs and Celtics. Looks like things aren't over and we might see another surprises in more days to come.

Cavs To Consider Voiding Kyrie Irving Trade After Evaluating Isaiah Thomas

http://fadeawayworld.com/2017/08/26/breaking-cavs-to-consider-voiding-kyrie-irving-trade-after-evaluating-isaiah-thomas/

Anyways just a rumor.

Hip injury? I thought that was all recovered. Anyways, I've never heard of a trade void before, because of an injury. Would this be the first in case?

Another twist in the ongoing drama about the trade. It could be included in the contract as well, that they can void it once they see that Isiah Thomas is not fit to play in exchange of a healthy Kyrie Irving. Well its just a rumor and we will have to what for the next episode of this soap opera.

I also guessing that the extent of the injury of Isiah Thomas is not that big and he has already recovered. He's injury in not life threatening that he can't play anymore. But still though, maybe Cavaliers management just wanted to make sure because they are giving up their no. 2 scorer in the team.

Or it could be a bluff by the Cavs to get more assets from Boston.

can consider that mate as we knew that cavs really aiming again for another rematch against gsw and doing everything to make sure that they have that edge because losing kyrie will be a big adjustment though they've got thomas and Crowder but still its different when kyrie who really can manage the floor without lbj inside, let see how this drama will end and how the season will start.

Actually, I've read an article analyzing the Cav's offense. There they conclyded that Kyrie, on his own, without LBJ on the floor, isn't very efficient, as compared to LBJ alone in the floor without Kyrie. So it suggests that it's Kyrie that needs LBJ in the team and not the other way around.

That's pretty obvious, Kyrie is good but Lebron is better than him, there is a reason why Lebron is a high paid athlete and has won championships in different team. When Lebron want anything he gets it, that's how valuable he is in the team now that he has proven he can give championship to the team.

Kyrie Irving is a deadly scorer, perhaps the one with the most killer instinct especially down the stretch but that's it sadly, he's not a good defender, not a good rebounder or even passer. He's of course lethal when he is on fire. I still think he's doing the right thing here if he doesn't want to progress in developing his game (like Kevin Love did). If he's just looking to be a star every night, take 25-30 shots, well he needs to go to another team, the Cavs doesn't have that many shots to spare plus he and Lebron get a lot of isolation plays and the rest of the team chemistry suffers.

Irving would do well but he's very far from being able to win on his own. I would compare him to a poor's man Harden. On the other hand, he already has a ring and he's a Cavaliers legend, no one can take that away from him.

No doubt that he can really score but can he bring any team and become a champion? Remains to be seen. Yeah, he is like Harden, but Harden has many good supporting cast and eventhough he is a lethal scorer, still he can't bring Houston to the finals. Just proves that basketball is really a team sport and no matter how good you are 1:1 if you don't pass or rebound then you will be having a hard time reaching at least the semis. Let see how Kyrie really adapt to Celtics, maybe in a year or two when he has matured enough in his role with the team we can really see his full potential as franchise player.

Well for starters Irving deal is not finished so we'll see, if he ends up in the Celtics he may not win this year but if Lebron leaves in the next, then the Celtics definitely have a shot for the Eastearn Conference title at least (that if Lebron goes to a Western Team). As for Harden, he's that type of player in my opinion, I would say Irving is even a more professional, serious type of player even with his limitations.

Harden has plenty of talent but he has no will to win or persevere, at least yet in my opinion, we'll see how Chris Paul affects his game, either positively or negatively.
