It is not time for the Orlando Magic to strike for a star like Kyrie Irving

Kyrie Irving made the NBA world shake again this weekend when word leaked he had requested a trade from the Cleveland Cavaliers. The NBA is never seemingly settled and even the surest thing can create uncertainty with the smallest mistake.

The Cavaliers are hardly perfect. The whole David Griffin saga, which pulled the Orlando Magic in for a moment, has thrown that front office into some turmoil.

The Cavaliers did not renegotiate a new contract for their general manager, letting his contract lapse all the way until the June 30 deadline all the while they were in negotiations for another star to help the three-time defending Eastern Conference champions compete with the Golden State Warriors.
