The Cleveland Cavaliers were hoping to be a playoff contender this season around Kyrie Irving, but have been terribly disappointing. The Cavaliers have missed on several draft picks and Chris Grant's job as general manager is in danger."Kyrie Irving has been telling people privately he wants out," wrote Chad Ford.
Irving becomes eligible for a contract extension this offseason and will presumably receive a max offer from the Cavaliers. Irving could become a restricted free agent in the 2015 offseason meaning he could not leave outright until 2016.
"The Cavs are working to try to create a winning situation and culture to make him happy," wrote Ford. "Didn't report it to say he's gone. Just trying to show why the Cavs are trying hard to right the ship right now."Gilbert

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;
As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.
This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his "decision" unlike anything ever "witnessed" in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.
Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.
The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.
There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.
You simply don't deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.
You have given so much and deserve so much more.
In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:
"I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF- LED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE"
You can take it to the bank.
If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our "motivation" to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.
Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.
Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.
This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown "chosen one" sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And "who" we would want them to grow-up to become.
But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called "curse" on Cleveland, Ohio.
The self-declared former "King" will be taking the "curse" with him down south. And until he does "right" by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.
Just watch.
Sleep well, Cleveland.
Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day....
I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:
DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue....

What is the "or else" to that guarantee?
Irving sucks.
Irving is just fluffing his next contract -- nothing to see here.
Easily the most overrated player in the league, tbh..
vanilla RealGM-ish NBA fans overhyping a fake star, per par..
Easily the most overrated player in the league, tbh..
wtf so the dude has a few good 4th quarters and all of the sudden niggras ing over him
Parker for Irving trade?
max extension
I'm down
props to Harlem for coining the vanilla poster term (iirc it was him). a lot of s emulating him now
When did he take that le from Kevin Love tbh?
Who cares what he wants? He's a PG. There's an abundance of chucking PGs already.
Irving should seriously consider joining us as a FA this summer tbh. We'll have enough room to make this work, with Dirk & Marion re-signed to small contracts hopefully
Trade him for a high lottery pick this year. Throw in a few fillers for financial purposes if need be.
Solid 10-25 shooting tonight
Gilbert thought he could convince Irving to stay by acquiring Luol Deng
Another summer of begging awaits
City of Cleveland
Hopes of Lebron coming back
Foster Care franchise
don't normally agree with you, but spot on, tbhGilbert thought he could convince Irving to stay by acquiring Luol Deng

Give the guy a break. He earned that meltdown. He watched the #2 franchise of the 07-10 years go down the ter in 1 move. Good for Lebron tho for leavingDear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;
