Any insider news on where Kyrie is heading?
There is still no certain team on where Kyrie is moving. But it seems that he prefer to go with Spurs or it's just a crowd suggestion. But if that will be the final move, Spurs will be empowered with him. And there's another player in addition with the strength of Spurs and that is Pau Gasol that recently signed a contract with them.
He should move because there will be rival of star between him and Derrick Rose because they played in the same position, although Derrick Rose is not highly paid now but he still have that capacity to play and to defend his opponent. Slowly if he will remain being healthy he can recover and maybe he will be back again on his old style of play, he belongs to be good team so I guess it will be a challenge for him.
D Rose moving to Cleveland finally is a nail to the coffin that Irving will moved away from Cavs. I hope D Rose can revived his career with the Cavs and help them at least go to the Finals again. I still believed that D Rose has still has it, although he lost a step or two, but definitely can contribute and score if needed. Let's wait and see where Irving goes and then we can discuss if he is a perfect fit to the team he is choosing.
Well, good luck with Derick Rose. He is my idol since his bulls career starts. But compare to Irving, Irving is a little ahead. Derick Rose also is weak on defense. Hope he improves on defense. No questions about his ability. He is very explosive when he is on attack mode. But since he was injured, the power is still there but the aggression lessened. If ever Irving landed to Spurs. I think it will be a good match up between Cavs and Spurs. But this time i will go for Spurs.
Cavs is stronger with Rose I guess.
But still NBA is still a game of teams and not just with a single player, team play is still needs to be considered for the whole league.
They have made the final decision, Irving leaving the Cavs and looking now for a new home.
I'd say that if Cavs trade Kyrie, Its probably a bad move. I know that Rose will replace him but he hasnt really been the same since his first big knee injury. His last season was good but cant be compared to Irving. He was also their clutch shooter and had hit a lot of game winners to save cavs and personally I think he does that better than LeBron right now. With LeBron probably only having a few more seasons at best where he can dominate the league he isnt that great at clutch and relies on the team mostly to make good plays. Only time will tell how good Rose plays with cavs but I personally think its a bad move for Cavs on the whole.
But Cavs cannot do anything if Irving is the one insisting of getting out of the team. So the only thing to do is let him go, that's why they got Rose as somewhat to take over the point guard position. We can't compare both, as we all know that Rose is not the same since the injury but what other choices do Cavs have right now? They need someone to cover the void that has been left by Irving, so they gamble and take Rose for 1 year so see how he fits with the team.
It's a bad move as we are seeing on how big Kyrie is a loss for the Cavs.
But Kyrie is just becoming wise and it looks like opportunities are knocking to him and he don't want to be a sidekick forever.
I'm seeing him making his own path of career with other team.
I think this is the logical reason why he decided to leave the Cavs. He don't want to be the shadow of Lebron forever. He wants to win a championship without him so he is shopping for a team that can provide that. Again, its not Cavs fault, their hands are tied. Its Kyrie decision to leave, they didn't want to let him go.
