Why do I feel them shopping for Rose also fueled this exit?

When Klay Thompson gets one more ring, he's walking out of Oracle Arena like a cat on a runway. This one is sure. Lol

Anything Kyrie is doing should just be in the East. 11 teams in the West are already fighting for playoff spots already. Jeremy Lin has a better chance of making all star than the MVP next session.

Let him just stay in that conference for posterity sakes.

I rebuke you!!!!!!!

If Spurs can get him, they reduce the gap between GSW and them. But his MVP dreams may still not come to fruition. That is why I agree with you that he should remain in the east. He would develop as a player if he has the reins of his team.

Heat or NY would be good for him especially NY. He would have to develop his passing game and defense (at least just a bit).

how can somebody who has been to the finals and held his own with the best of the best suddenly decide to go back to being mediocre?
I think kyrie is leaving because he knows bron is also leaving,he no wan dey stranded. has nothing to do with being a side kick,to me,he has performed better with bron than he would be only.
Na K.Love status plummet.
is LeBron plan just to move from one team to the other,exhaust trade chip and cap space,win some ring and then do it all over again with a different team ? not cool.


and I still blame KD for everything.
fork KD.

Legacy means alot to players don't sleep on it. How plagued was KD when he knew he could end his career without a ring?

That fear can drive you to opt for the unpredictable.

If Kyrie was getting his dues whilst playing with Bron he may have been okay, but, think of it - he did not make the all NBA last year and nobody batted an eyelid.

I saw a video of him angry that NBA 2k17 rated him 90. He was hoping to be a 95. Little things like this matter to some people's ego that is why players like Curry are venerated.

I see your point about him wanting to leave because he knows Lebron might not be there next year and it is right but word is, Kyrie was hoping to move to Bulls until they traded Jimmy away.

In other words, he had been considering this move earlier than we are getting to know.

Nope he is not a Laker fan.

He is a Lebum fan,who once snaked on Lebum to support the Golden State warriors..because Lebum wasn't winning rings at that time.

Now he wants Lebum to go to a team where he will be handed scoring passes by Lonzo.


The emboldened is fake news.

That video was even before he was drafted.

Do you want to play with Lebum?

What should a respectful,tax paying,law abiding,community serving individual like Lonzo say?

No..He's a bum?

Yeah right. I'm the dull one. grin

He signed the contract did he not? Which means that they estimate his value at that range and that amount is greater than what curry is earning. Am I to be held responsible for your deficiencies in comprehension? Bye Felicia!

if he was projected to earn and hasn't already signed the contract then your statement is accurate. Given that contrary is the case then you and everyone who liked your comment are as dumb as a rock

Brother, this is my last post to you


Who is going to earn more next season?2017/2018 season? Wall or Curry?

It's better you don't answer this question cos your next post may determine the IQ numbers I'm dealing with.

Wall set to earn more than Curry, nothing will change that. Take it however you want small fry.

I don't think Bron leaving is a factor to Kyrie's decision. I mean, he may well stay one more season, fight for one more ring. When Bron then leaves, he can then lead the team together with Love (if he's still around).

And no, I won't blame Love for his plummet. He has amazing numbers for a third scoring option, better than most; if not all. Bron's style of play doesn't favour PFs from my observations.

Kyrie has performed better with Bron but you're using his rookie days to judge his stats when he's flying solo. Who knows the experiences accrued may impact on his next team would look like.

Bron is Bron. He doesn't matter how he gets a ring and what happens after he leaves. He just wants to chase the Ghost of Chicago

And leave KD abeg. The world should move on by now. It's 80% forgotten. If he gets one more ring or a regular season MVP, nobody will remember again.

i later read that he wants to be the main guy on his own team,i wish him well.
love's numbers are still good but his stock has been higher than it is right now the injuries sef no dey help matter.
am a big bron fan but he left Miami when they had no chips to make move,with the way things dey go e go do the same cavs,no be my legacy on the line but i think the noble thing is too try to defeat the warriors again.anything is possible.
he can't catch that ghost even if him join the warriors and win 9 rings.nostalgia won't allow it.

the ripple effect of wetin KD do na him we still dey feel.
if we go back enough it was probably the cause of cancer.fork KD.

This is more than just being the main guy in the Cavs, because Uncle Drew is just 25, and Lebron would be 33. I would reiterate my earlier post and say outside winning a ring, Kyrie has not enjoyed playing alongside Lebron. In 2 years he would be the main guy and would be playing heavier minutes in comparison to Lebron.

If he wants to start all over, it's better he starts it now and not 2 years later. And most importantly, he should remain in the East

Lots of stuff floating around about this peculiar Kyrie business. I thought I'd look for a journalist that actually knows these guys well...yall take a listen. Sounds plausible to me - bottom line, the owner Gilbert can really not be relied on to spend the money to build a championship team. which means LBJ is hesitating about staying in cleveland. which means kyrie sees no reason to be there either, and would rather not play little brother role
