I guess that means LeBron will probably leave next year too?

so where would he go?

San Antonio? Him and Kawhi wouldnt be enough to content for a title IMO
Minnie? They'd have to unload Teague but that could be interesting.. Kyrie/Butler/Wiggins/KAT
Knicks? Say goodbye to your career
Miami? He'd be alone and lose..not sure Riley can get lucky enough to assemble another great team

Awesome news for Boston I guess. Path to the Finals potentially gets easier if he does leave.

Well he believes in a flat earth so he's not the brightest tool in the shed. That said, if they are willing to trade him, personally i think dragic + minor assets + some salary dump would be the best option.

Dragic worked great in a combo role (euro off ball training) with a stretch 4 in phoenix, and well, isn't all world no d, not as good a player, better fit though.

San Antonio don't have anything, nor does he seem the type for them

The Knicks, i dunno, i think (and they seem to) that they need to suck really bad this year for a quality draft addition, Kyrie + Porzingis is probably a #10 pick waiting to happen, as opposed to a top 5 (with a legit shot at #1).

Minnesota can't trade Teague for some time now and i'm not sure Thibodeau is willing to dump a free agent signing like that.

Wolves, but they'd need to give up Wiggins, and they should.

Kyrie/Buter/KAT competes for a title imo.

All you guys that want lebron here should think really hard about what that means. Dude is a drama queen. We have a great young core that's easily influenced. Do you really want him coming here when he's old and grumpy? The Cavs have been to the Finals 3 straight years, so this is clearly Kyrie not wanting to play with lebron if you ask me.

Wolves get Wiggins in exchange for empty stats Love, then send him back to the Cavs in exchange for Kyrie.

Dr. Buss already answered that question for him. But he doesn't have the stones.

Let's trade everyone except Ingram and ball for him. Likely not enough but why not throw in a pick or two also!!

But Kyrie isn't nearly as good as Kobe and LeBron is better than Shaq.

Knicks should trade Melo to Cleveland for Kyrie. But then again we are talking about Dolan and the Knickerbockers...

If they keep Lebronze, he's going to bail on them next year too. So they need to keep Irving.

Lebron has a no trade clause, or do you mean trade Kyrie?
