Is Kyrie truly an option? Can he force his way out of Cleveland and make it to the Lakers?

Could a three team with Phoenix make it a possibility, or maybe something straight up with Cleveland and Gasol out with Irving and Varejao in?

Is there any truth to this rumor whatsoever? I'm sure most if not all of LG would love to have Kyrie on the squad manning the point next to Kobe, it's truly an All Star as noted over the last two years. Nothing but room to grow. I can see him and CP3 having battles for years to come.

There are a ton of possibilities for the Lakers if not this year the next, it's going to be an exciting transition once all the mess gets weeded out!

The only way Lakers can get Kyrie is through a sign and trade. For this to happen, Lakers have to sign some some players this off season. If Lakers are able to sign Lowry this offseason, would Cavs trade Kyrie for Lowry?

What you are suggesting isn't a true Sign and Trade. If the Lakers signed Lowry this Summer, then he couldn't be traded until after the season started. Mid December sounds right, but not 100% on that.

Cleveland would be expecting Lowry + ? in a Kyrie trade and you didn't define what ? would be.

Why not pick for cleveland in the draft, and then trade them for Kyrie. It should work considering Kyrie is still on his rookie contract.

Let the bidding for him begin....
If they couldn't win a title with Lebron, who grew up there and considered that area home, no way they can hang on to Kyrie.

some here don't want Kyre but I would really love to have him here and preferably before Kobe retires so they could play together in the back court and he could learn from Kobe.

I would love to have him too. BUT, I would not trade a Top 5 pick :
Embiid, Wiggins, Parker, Exum, Randle for him. If I was 6-10, I would make a deal.

He is a superstar, but comes with the injury risk and immediate re-signing factor.
