Melo knows that Lebron is much better than him so definitely he will give way and will play as a backup role with of course still having a isolation plays with him. He is the one who will landed to Cavaliers and not Lebron who will land to his currenet team(if ever) that's why there is no pride involved here and it will not be hard for that chemistry to build.

Remember Dwayne Wade? He is at his peak when Lebron came but look what happened even prior to that season of Miami Heat's Big 3, there is some question about how chemistry will be build on that team.

from what i concluded is that Lebron didn't like playing for the cavs when they couldn't sogn either Butler or Paul George, so his camp put out the trade request to try and then put the blame on Kyrie when it is actually Lebron's instability in making clear decisions that is making  team goes apart. His refusal to commit to the team has made Kyrie ask for a trade and also has even Melo not wanting to go there now the knicks may still not found the best deal yet but they will if a team pushes harder to get him so Cleaveland need to work faster to stay at the top and get to the finals one more time before their time ends

@DIA7
You have a nice thoughts there. But may I know where sources it came from? Or just an own analyzation of yours?


Kyrie is forgetting something if his goal is to lead a team.

He must remember that Kyrie owned Cleveland didnt make it to the playoffs even at 8th spot for years before Lebron James arrival. They suffer worst record for many season and you can't blame his teammate here because they are not the only one who have the worst roster on the East back then.

Ok let's see then. If he think he can lead a team now after those years then he must prove it to avoid critisicm.

You clearly not getting the picture of what Im trying to point out. We are talking about East teams mate where going to 8th spot here is kinda more reachable than on the teams on the West if we based on those season I will mentioned below. Disregard him being the No. 1 overall pick as Im pointing about leading the team.

2011-2012 Season - Cavaliers finished at 13th spot on the East
2012-2013 Season - Cavaliers finished at 13th spot on the East
2014-2015 Season - Cavaliers finished at 10th spot on the East

Now do some reviews about their lineup back then and tell me if you can considered that as a weak team and can't compete with the East teams. That's why like I said to avoid criticism, after getting much more improvement he must show to everyone that he can now lead a team. (THIS WILL ONLY APPLIED IF THAT IS REALLY HIS GOAL FOR TRADE REQUEST)

Well it may be beyond simply having his own team. I don't think kyrie's that dumb to think that he can carry a team to the status of the current cavs. Yeah he's matured more than that kid trying to carry his team but i think he's just feeling he needs to move or or he wants change. Who knows, at this stage he may be able to carry his own team on ti the off season. He's not the same as before so i think he is capable of carrying a team

Something must happened internally with Lebron or who knows because I think he should have stay at least one more year. There's a strong case saying that Lebron will leave next year so that way the Cavs would be in full rebuilding mode (maybe forever if Lebron leaves again). Now it's all up in the air and the Cavs have to find a good trade for him without a lot of time or assets.

But well, we can't blame him, his heart is already elsewhere, he wants to start something on his own and he already won a championship. To me that's pretty respectable compared to Durant decision for example...

The same with Lebron. Cavs won't be good without Kyrie. Did Lebron lift the Cavs to get a ring before? No, that's why he move to Miami. Lebron can't lift the team all the way to get a ring. He also need others. You can't get a ring without a good team mate along side with you or a good superstar I shoud say.

Detroit Pistons also interested in acquiring Kyrie Irving as well so the drama still goes on:

A person with knowledge of the Pistons’ front office told the Free Press recently that the organization is interested in the four-time NBA All-Star, who nailed the winning shot to clinch the 2016 NBA title for the Cavs.

Just last month, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that roughly 20 teams were interested in Irving, so this report just confirms Detroit is one of those.

The Pistons took a step back last season after promise the year before. With Reggie Jackson battling injuries early on, he never truly hit his stride while Andre Drummond took a step back nearly all-around. It’s resulted in both of these previously thought of franchise cornerstones being involved in trade rumors.

Drummond is certainly the most intriguing trade prospect the Pistons would have to peak the Cavs’ interest. Cleveland may even want Jackson as well in a hypothetical deal, or a young prospect like Stanley Johnson.

It will be interesting to see if the Pistons can make any ground with the Cavs on a deal for Irving or if this is as far as the story goes.

Lebron indeed has the quality of a good leader, though the intensity the Kyrie gives in every game brings much more energy to the whole team. Yes, there are a lot of good players out there that can replace him though It's still a huge loss for the Cavs if they let Kyrie go. But the bright side of that is they can free up some slot to strengthen their bench. Adding to that as D. Rose arrival in Cavs could lessen the drama of Kyrie's possible departure. D.Rose is a quality player and also could contribute as much as Kyrie does. Though, I'm just hoping that he could at least finish the season without having a season ending injury. I think that Lebron and Rose chemistry would click, as Rose can basically lower down his intensity of playing to avoid injury and let Lebron and the rest to do the work.
