It’s wrong to say that it’s effectively impossible for the Heat to trade Tyler Herro… For many scenarios in which you might want to trade him (e.g., Irving, Durant), it’s not even all that hard. Harder is building a compelling trade package, accepting a big tax bill, etc. – 10:17 AM

“The fragility of hanging on to playing a perfect game is very difficult.”
A year after his iconic tweet, Jaylen Brown followed up a dismantling of the Nets (that triggered a Kyrie Irving trade request) with a sequel. But the energy still needs shifting.

One big difference between the risk in trading for Russ vs. trading for Kyrie: Kyrie is a much better player. But if you make the deal w/ the willingness to max him out (or close to it), it has to be done with the understanding it’ll likely go sour at some point. BK – 8:18 PM

A potential Kyrie deal probably has the highest chance of paying off this season. It’s the long term commitment that would be frightening, and the idea of making him a pillar in the post-LeBron version of the franchise. BK – 7:47 PM

If the Lakers offer their 2027 and 2029 1sts unprotected, I think the Nets take that deal and run.
They clearly don’t want to be in business with Kyrie anymore.

Don’t for a second doubt that Kyrie Irving’s trade demand has more players behind than Kyrie, himself. Before the blowup in 2017, LeBron and Kyrie talked Jimmy Butler into trying to demand a trade so Cleveland could get him. Then Griff was fired and it instantly went to hell. – 2:54 PM

Kyrie Irving is extension eligible up until June 30 with Brooklyn.
If he is traded and amends the 15% trade bonus, he is not allowed to extend with his new team.
The maximum on an extension is 2 years/$78.6M with a new team but only if Brooklyn pays him the trade kicker. – 2:54 PM

Thoughts on Lakers/Kyrie Irving: They’ve been open to deal w/ picks if it puts them in title contention. But w/ uncertainty on availability history, pending free agency & other players involved in the deal, would the Lakers go all in? Would their assets even be enough, anyway? – 2:50 PM

It’s hard to explain exactly how much I don’t want Kyrie on the Mavs. Why would you even risk introducing that kind of daily influence on Luka … or any other young player that may remain?

I wouldn’t be shocked if Brooklyn ends up trading KD and letting Kyrie hit free agency. His unpredictability and expiring contract hurts his value. No reason to take on bad salary for underwhelming assets when simply letting his deal expire is an option. – 2:45 PM

so many reasons to doubt a kyrie trade will actually happen. one being: if you’re the lakers (the only team desperate/dumb enough to be interested?) and kyrie has threatened to leave as a FA this summer, why would LA offer anything in a trade the nets actually want? – 2:01 PM

Kyrie Irving was posting Jordan Peterson and Jason Whitlock on his IG story yesterday and requests a trade today. It never stops. Can’t believe one of the greatest ever chose that – 2:00 PM

League sources confirm Kyrie Irving has informed Nets he wants to be moved ahead of Thursday’s trade deadline. Sides have been unable to come to terms on new contract, which is what Irving had been seeking. Irving will be unrestricted free agent this summer. – 2:00 PM

So… now that Kyrie Irving wants out from the Nets does Kevin Durant demand another trade? Or are KD and Kyrie just breaking up? – 1:59 PM

Have to imagine the Jazz would be a popular name for teams needing to bring in a third partner for a Kyrie Irving trade.
Jazz have so many contracts of differing size they could help facilitate a lot moves – 1:58 PM

The obvious question is if the Lakers can construct a deal that would get the Nets interested. LA might be the only team willing to take on Kyrie under these circumstances. – 1:58 PM

I was always skeptical of the Nets’ desire to commit to Kyrie long-term after all that has happened. Their reluctance over recent weeks has clearly led to frustration on his end.
Now we see how they play this. – 1:58 PM

More on this storyline
Michael Scotto: Nic Claxton said he wouldn’t try to talk Kyrie Irving out of his trade request. He was then asked if there was a window for Irving to return to the Brooklyn Nets. In part: “I have no idea. I just work here at the end of the day.” 😂 Full video below. pic.twitter.com/gcnZ1CoFyI -via Twitter @MikeAScotto / February 4, 2023
Neil Dalal: Nets introduce their full roster on the Jumbotron before the teams took the court. Lots of boos when Kyrie Irving is shown. -via Twitter @NeilDalal96 / February 4, 2023
Brian Lewis: Nic Claxton on Kyrie: “I always respect his decision, whatever that may be. And that’s my brother. And you know, just got to roll with who’s here.” #nets -via Twitter @NYPost_Lewis / February 4, 2023
