Dream on soldier boy. I bet if Kyrie told you the world was flat, you'd believe him because after all, he said it.

So is it also LeBron's fault that back in 2014, before LeBron returned to Cleveland, Kyrie's camp was already telling the media that Kyrie wanted out of Cleveland?
The truth is [Kyrie's] camp has been putting out there for years – years – that he doesn't want to be in Cleveland. That they don't want him in Cleveland. He doesn't like Mike Brown. He didn't like Chris Grant. He doesn't like Dion Waiters. He's already gotten a General Manager fired. He might get Mike Brown fired.

First of all, let us debunk the initial comment on the 4-0 sweep by the hands of the warrriors. No Kawhi, up 23 pts when he left the game. No Parker, and last and certainly least, Lee getting hurt as well. The warriors didn't beat the Spurs, they beat a wounded team that had their best player hurt, and their best floor general hurt. The Spurs depth was gone after Kawhi and Parker went down as well, so why do people continue acting like the Spurs are light years away from beating the warriors.
Second quote from an Aggie....well, that kind of sums it up there really. An Aggie calling somebody else an idiot. While I could simply stop there, because tbqh that is more then enough, I will certainly explain. Who knows, maybe even an Aggie is capable of learning something, although I do have my doubts.
I wasn't "calling" for Rose. I was simply pointing out that he was available on the cheap, and the Spurs wouldn't have to give up all of their assets to get him. And there was little interest in the Spurs going after him. I think as far as defense goes, they both agree pretty bad. Sadly, I would say Kyrie is worse on defense than Rose though.
Look at the assets the Spurs would have to give up to get Kyrie and tell me that the Spurs are truly a better team going down that road.
Kyrie isn't over himself. He wants to be the man. How does that fit in comparison to a player like Rose who can still get his shot (admittedly not nearly as much as Kyrie can). Giving up a bunch of assets to get an 18 mill per year player who want's to be the man doesn't make sense. Yeah, I know the next argument...we trade LA (who wants to be the man) for Kyrie. Problem is we have no bigs who can get their shot in doing so. The amount of assets the Cavs would want for Kyrie would would most likely decimate this team. People are thinking in terms of just adding Kyrie, instead of adding him, and losing key pieces that we already have.
Yeah yeah, I know the next argument is that we don't need LA because GS plays small ball. The way OKC is set up, if the Spurs give up key bigs, they likely get eliminated by the Thunder should the Spurs meet them in the playoffs. I think most people on this forum would agree on that.
My point in bringing up Rose was that if the Spurs truly wanted to bolster the guard position, they would have already been in talks with him, as he was reportedly willing to take as low as 2.1 million for a one year deal. I like Kyrie as far as character more than Rose at this point for sure, but at what price.
Hey, if the Spurs want to go deep into the luxury tax like the warriors, bring Kyrie over and don't give up any real assets, I am ALL for it. Do you really see that happening tho?
you all know damn well we aint getting shiiittttt
Yep. But ST will still ring all the bells and whistles until Kyrie is traded to another team - and then go TILT.you all know damn well we aint getting shiiittttt
Truthyou all know damn well we aint getting shiiittttt
Suns get hosed badly with this.
Windhorst is a windbag. His sole purpose in life and the only reason BSPN hired him in the first place was to make LeBron look good and everyone else look bad by comparison. Kyrie was what, 21-22 when that article was posted? How immature were you at that age? Probably not much different than you are at 40, huh?
Now let's do LeCoon....

James is by far, one of the most spoiled, self en led players to ever play professionals sports and he thinks because He's good at his job, the whole world should cater to him.

The word coon is mad offensive! You're more creative I'm thinking/hoping
Windhorst is the one who broke this story about Kyrie's trade demand, though. So is it all fake news, or has Kyrie wanted out of Cleveland from day one? Can't have it both ways.
So? He's 25 now, is still immature and en led, and still wants out of Cleveland. What's changed?Kyrie was what, 21-22 when that article was posted?

It sounds exactly like the takes you spew on here all the time.
Thanks for the link. An interesting perspective. But be sure to re-post it next year when ST is all agog over LeBron, with "It's Happening!" posts everywhere.
lol look at this depth chart.
for the record I wanted Kyrie. Spurs need talent at the guard spots and are in a fishing expedition, while expecting huge contributions in the playoffs from a guy with a ruptured Quad, a legend who is already 40 and will be nearing 41 at the time, and a forward who suffered a career killing achilles injury... but sure guys think Kyle Anderson won't find playing time.... lets give him away for free.. spurstalk
Say the smelly Pakistani Laker fan with a sexual lust for a male anime character.
Lebron is for sure never coming here. He was personally scouting Lonzo Ball in summer league and is rumored to be eyeing playing in the Lakers already. A pursuit of Lebron will be as fruitless as pursuing Kevin Durant.Thanks for the link. An interesting perspective. But be sure to re-post it next year when ST is all agog over LeBron, with "It's Happening!" posts everywhere.
Kyrie OTOH had the Spurs as a preferred destiation..
I bet Manu's going to play lots of SF like in 2014 and Gay will get a ton of PF minutes whether Softridge is here or not next season.
Yeah, PATFO surely must have some plan. That skewed roster just doesn't make sense. But what also doesn't make sense is that commentators will list Kyle as a wing and Davis as a big. Neither will make it as a wing defensively, and until he bulks up some more, Davis isn't well suited to the 4 spot. Kyle has bulked up enough, though, to be a suitable 4.
Agreed about Lebron. But I am not convinced that Kyrie is genuinely interested in the Spurs, although with Tony on his last legs with no successor ready, SA would be a great landing spot for him. But I think he is probably "padding" his list with a perennial winner to make him seem less mercenary.
The league is just not rostered how it used to be and that is what Pop is aiming to find out... With the exception of the Pelicans duo of A.Davis and Boogie, and the clippers with DJ and Blake, most teams just don't feature the twin towers set up of two huge traditional bigs. Even Memphis is going away from that style.
His choices included good teams with good coaches and opportunities to win: Coach Pop, Coach Thibodeau, and Coach Spoelstra. Only Knicks is all out there and its a big market city and he's originally from New York or one of the northern east coast states? His choices make sense. Only Miami already has a PG. I think he's genuine. He wouldn't have leaked it if he didn't want to motivate any of these teams to try to talk to Cavs to get him and make a harder push for him. Spurs were already interested in him, I believe dangling Danny Green, remember those rumors?
However, he doesn't hold the keys to his future just yet. This may drag on most or all of the season.
An idiot deserves an idiot response. As I said, who's offering two starters (one with championship experience) and a young prospect with the potential to start?
We don't know what anyone is offering but negotiations don't start by throwing the kitchen sink in. You start with a moderate, not insulting, offer and go from there.
