I think Golden State Warriors still unstoppable next season. Maybe only 2 or 5 top NBA team as title contender for Curry and folks.
Anyone have created thread for 2017/2018 season yet?

This thread is already good for 2017-2018 as OP can just change the title or it's understandable that this thread is for NBA. We will see if the Golden State Warriors is still unstoppable, every season is not that the same from the past. It's either this is the regime of GSW but we will never know if they can play consistently.

The NBA is yet boring again for another season.

Super-team dominance isn't healthy for the league at all IMO.

No need, the OP will just updated the title thread to reflect the 2017/18 as what he did for previous years.

I just wondered who's player will be traded on line if Kyrie deal will be done here. Surely the players involved is worth to trade for Cavaliers to accept it, (unless it will be a three team trade). I doubt Riley will destroy their current set of main man roster just to be traded on Irving. Well who knows.

We really still don't know how this trade will go on. A lot of teams have been courting Kyrie and the GM wants to get the best possible option not only for the Cavs now, but for the future of the team. I guess the GM job is not easy after all. But I'm sure that Kyrie will be traded, there's no way that he will go back to Cavs uniform as the news is already out and he and Lebron can't mend and will probably be worst if they still don the same jersey for 2017-2018 season.

Yeah most likely it will involve a three way deal or more, as with other teams mentioned like Suns, Wolves and Knicks. The only team that may trade for Irving directly is the Spurs since they can deal Green, Aldridge or Mills for him and the Cavs will certainly take two of them straight up.

And I think Riley already have a decent team with zero all-stars, the East is easy and if they can add Kyrie and a couple of medium level veteran role players that can help him they will be back in the playoffs in no time with a decent chance to get into the East finals.

I think Miami is one of the only destinations where Kyrie can make an impact right now and make it a contender since the East is so weak. He won't be doing that alone though but if Miami can make another deal and bring a couple of good role players it might. I don't know why he mentioned Miami as a destination other than the city/climate (and no LA?), maybe he knows something we don't and Riley has a plan for him and others. He did it once and he can do it again now that Wade's out.

That's the biggest issue there i think. Teams definitely would be interested in kyrie though they may not have a player with the same caliber for a fair trade, or if they have one, they may not be willing to part from that player. Imagine how the cavs would be next season with kyrie still in their lineup LOL

We are still a few months away from the start of the next regular season so I expect other teams to propose trades for Kyrie Irving, and it will be done even before we know it. The Cavs would still be the Eastern favorites even without Kyrie, for as long as they can fill the gaps / holes that will be left by Kyrie. With the correct mix of players, Cleveland is still poised to win the East. The question is how much would they challenge the Warriors who would be more dangerous because of the better familiarity among the players.

Miami would be a perfect fit for Kyrie, they've got good bigs there. Kyrie would be complete their missing piece.

yeah right if kyrie will go to miami he can be a big lift for them as kyrie wants to be star on its own and he needed some help out from promising young guns if ever this deal can be complete east would a much interested playoffs unlike with the previous season where we knew that cavs will still go and
advance to the finals.

Miami Heat has a good coach, despite the fact that there are not stars in the team they were still able to compete with great teams and they almost made it to the playoffs last season, they had a good point guard already and I don't think Kyrie will make a difference when he will land in that team.

Kyrie Irving will lift the Miami Heat for sure but the real question is can he lift it enough to make them contenders? For a team having a nice center with Hassan Whiteside and a good SG with James Johnson I just think that it will be enough until they reach the 2nd round of the eastern playoffs. If he really wants to be a star then joining Miami or even Knick could be the trick for him.

There's a lot of things that is going on to his mind now, he will not be the star in a team that does not really do well.
Spurs is only the best team he should be and he need to accept that leonard is the star there and he cannot replace that, even parker know how
good leonard is and IMO he is as great like Durant, Lebron, and Westbrook.

The Wolves, Suns and even the Spurs have it so much worse than the Heat with the Warriors on their path so that's definitely an advantage.

Is LeBron James’ Instagram Story directed at Kyrie Irving?

IfKyrie Irving and LeBron James have moved their seemingly real disconnect into social-media beef, you’ll have an easy time believing LeBron is taking a shot at Irving here.

The Cavaliers superstar posted a video of himself singing along to Meek Mill’s “1942 Flows.” Via Sports Illustrated:

https://sports.yahoo.com/lebron-james-latest-snapchat-directed-172155527.html

LOL. I find it funny watching this video. But I honestly don't think that Lebron is taking a shot at Irving. What do you think?

You forgot to mention something more recent and verifiable, Irving couldn't even led the Cavs when Lebron was out during these last years. The Cavs record when Lebron missed games is atrocious to the point that it's even on par or worse than those older campaigns. Kyrie is not a leader that's for sure but he's trying to carve his own path, he's very young and I'm sure he can do it but he hasn't proven that yet.

Oh that's right why I missed it lol. One of the good example here is the Cavaliers worst record when Lebron James is out of the court. It was also being discussed this recent season because it was really noticeable that Cavaliers aren't playing well without (only) Lebron James.

But then things must changed now because Kyrie will surely left. And like I said, Kyrie must prove it's leadership next season to avoid taking criticism too much.

Exactly, he hasn't proved anything without in Cavaliers when there's no Lebron James yet. That's is why I think there is a really compelling reason for him leaving the Cavs when there chances are still strong to challenge for the title next year. Their big 3 is still comparable (He, James, Love) and strong as far as I'm concern. I'm also a fan but to be honest, I don't think he can be a one man team, he needs others as what Durant do, to be able to get another ring. Maybe went he finally went out of Cavs organization that we gonna really know what's the score between him and Lebron or him and Cavs management that drove him to go out and don't want to stay anymore.

The same with Lebron. Cavs won't be good without Kyrie. Did Lebron lift the Cavs to get a ring before? No, that's why he move to Miami. Lebron can't lift the team all the way to get a ring. He also need others. You can't get a ring without a good team mate along side with you or a good superstar I shoud say.

You cannot compare a lebron before and the current lebron, he is a much improve player now who can play any position in the floor, also he is more matured and can provide good leadership to his team. If Kyrie will leave the team, then so what, there are still a lot of good players that will surely will accept his rule just to have a chance to win a championship.

Lebron indeed has the quality of a good leader, though the intensity the Kyrie gives in every game brings much more energy to the whole team. Yes, there are a lot of good players out there that can replace him though It's still a huge loss for the Cavs if they let Kyrie go. But the bright side of that is they can free up some slot to strengthen their bench. Adding to that as D. Rose arrival in Cavs could lessen the drama of Kyrie's possible departure. D.Rose is a quality player and also could contribute as much as Kyrie does. Though, I'm just hoping that he could at least finish the season without having a season ending injury. I think that Lebron and Rose chemistry would click, as Rose can basically lower down his intensity of playing to avoid injury and let Lebron and the rest to do the work.

Detroit Pistons also interested in acquiring Kyrie Irving as well so the drama still goes on:

A person with knowledge of the Pistons’ front office told the Free Press recently that the organization is interested in the four-time NBA All-Star, who nailed the winning shot to clinch the 2016 NBA title for the Cavs.

Just last month, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that roughly 20 teams were interested in Irving, so this report just confirms Detroit is one of those.

The Pistons took a step back last season after promise the year before. With Reggie Jackson battling injuries early on, he never truly hit his stride while Andre Drummond took a step back nearly all-around. It’s resulted in both of these previously thought of franchise cornerstones being involved in trade rumors.

Drummond is certainly the most intriguing trade prospect the Pistons would have to peak the Cavs’ interest. Cleveland may even want Jackson as well in a hypothetical deal, or a young prospect like Stanley Johnson.

It will be interesting to see if the Pistons can make any ground with the Cavs on a deal for Irving or if this is as far as the story goes.
