All hell broke loose on the internet when SNY’s Anthony Puccio broke the news of reported interest between Kyrie Irving and the Brooklyn Nets. According to Puccio, Brooklyn would be open to pairing D’Angelo Russell and Irving in a Rucker Park-style scoring backcourt.
Puccio’s original report was only strengthened by Bleacher Report’s Ric Bucher, who stated that Irving’s decision was “between Brooklyn and the (Los Angeles) Lakers.” Bucher expanded, stating that Irving recently “bought a place in South Orange, (New Jersey).”
Let’s get this out of the way: the Brooklyn Nets should absolutely, 100% sign Kyrie Irving assuming that he’s available.
