Yeah, but Love wasn't demanding a trade. I think the Cavs sign Rose to replace Kyrie, then swap Kyrie for Melo.

That won't happen. Knicks are having tough time trading Melo for anything half decent. They won't get Kyrie for him. That's absurd talk.

So, what's your guess, where's Kyrie go?

No idea - to be honest. Now that Cavs have a GM - don't think they'll trade him without a good offer. I think they'll first try to convince him to stay.

There are a lot of "reasons" on the internet right now as to why Kyrie asked for trade. No one really knows other than the Cavs. Some reports suggest - he was upset that he was involved in some trade offers in June. Some reports suggest that he is upset that Lebron gets favorable treatment that he doesn't get with Cavs and some reports suggest that he wants to run the offense.

It doesn't matter where Kyrie wants to go. Cavs hold him for 2 years on a great contract. They'll get a great offer for him if they really decide to trade him.

I think it depends how much Kyrie b***hes to get moved. They won't trade him unless it's a good deal, but Kyrie can expedite things.

Like the idea of D Rose as a backup. Hopefully he won't be the starter lol

As reported - Kyrie didn't want his trade request to become public. If he's b***hing a lot - he's hurting his image and trust me - Kyrie is very brand conscious.

But the problem is Lebron. There's a rumor that Kyries people believe Lebron or his people are the ones that leaked the news. Will see how this plays out but the more Cavs wait to trade him his trade value diminish ala Paul George. If he is traded next year he will only be a 1 year rental plus with Lebron possibly leaving big risk for the Cavs.

Can't blame LBJ he brought Kyrie to three consecutive finals. He lets Kyrie take most of the shots especially this season. He lets Kyrie take the winning shot. Treat Kyrie like his bro LBJ felt betrayed can't blame him.
