    Kyrie gone next year. I bet he bolts to the Knicks

    Kyrie has no desire to win, he wants to be the man the entire organization kowtows to, like the Cavs did with LeBron. He saw it first hand.

    I think you are way off base with Kyrie not wanting to win. If he has no intention to re-sign with Boston, Ainge will deal him before letting him walk for nothing.

    dont know exactly how that situation went down but thought it was more of kyrie was feeling he was getting the respect he deserved or something along those lines, if he doesnt hit that clutch 3 there would still be no rings in cleveland

    Kyrie is one of the guys along with Lebron that GSW couldnt stop in the finals - he score on everybody - Hits almost every big shot - nobody is more clutch in the NBA-

    Ok, let me rephrase... Kyrie wants to be the MAN, more than he wants to share the light and win. Kyrie signed his extension with Cavs before knowing LeBron was coming back, and it has been reported by Brian Windhorst he wouldn't have signed had he known LeBron was coming. Windhorst also reported Kyrie was very close to demanding trade immediately after they won the championship in 2016

    What does that tell you about his desires ?

    Show me a credible report of that. If LeBron wanted that, it would have happened. Cavs did anything and everything LeBron wanted. Including vastly overpaying his friends clients at Klutch. (Tristan Thompson and JR Smith)

    Looks like pushing that Texas Tech fan did not harm him at all.
