Kyrie Irving, who had his best year as a pro last season, had it leaked that he requested a trade. The rumor is that Kyrie was tired of being robin; he was tired of the Cavaliers catering to LeBron’s every will and not considering him.
When Irving hit the market, teams everywhere looked down their roster list and thought about how to get him. Irving, who does not have a no-trade clause, will go to whatever team offers Cleveland the best package. If Cleveland believes that they will get a top prospect, they can forget it.
The Phoenix Suns, who seem like one of the most talked about targets to land Irving, have already ruled out Josh Jackson in trade talks.
