Well playas…Kyrie has finally gotten what he’s been lookin’ for, a ride out of Cleveland and away from LeBron. On Tuesday the Cavs accommodated that dun by tradin’ him to Boston for point guard Isaiah Thomas, forward Jae Crowder, center Ante Zizic and Brooklyn’s 2018 unprotected first-round pick.
Now ole boy can start over with his quest to be the man instead of bein’ the man sittin’ next to the man. Kyrie told ole Dan Gilbert in a meetin’ back in July that he wanted to go somewhere where he could be the focal point of the team. In other words, he was tired of playin’ second fiddle to LeBron. So goin’ to Boston may give him that opportunity.
Initially a lot of boyz were hot about the trade because they were sayin’ that Cleveland didn’t get any better as a result. However, y’all know how I do! Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! They did great by not gettin’ any worse bruh! When one of the best point guards in the league rolls up on you and demands to be traded and then the ENTIRE league finds out that he wants out. It takes all of the leverage off of the table for Cleveland.
So they did great by bein’ able to get Isaiah Thomas and some pieces. From a numbers stand point they lose nothin’ in terms of production. Kyrie averaged 25.2 points and 5.8 assists per game last year. Isaiah put up 28.9 points and 5.9 assists. They actually came up 3 points per game. They just loss 4 inches in height. So in my opinion it’s a wash. Why? Because Cleveland’s still got LeBron! So on some real talk, Isaiah just got better and Kyrie got worse. Why? Because we’ve already seen Uncle Drew without LeBron and he couldn’t win in Cleveland at all. Keep in mind that the Cavs with Kyrie runnin’ the show was one of the worse teams in the league three years in a row.
However, we’ve seen Isaiah without LeBron and that dun was ballin’. Also, he’s probably jumpin’ for joy right now because he gets to play with the best player in the planet and his ego isn’t stretched out of shape because he was the last dun picked in the 2011 draft and not the first. Make a huge difference bruh. I’m just sayin’!
But under the circumstances the Cavs got over well. They couldn’t keep Kyrie because he would have been a dumpster fire in that locker room. The fact that everybody and their baby’s momma knew that they had to move him made it that much more difficult to move him. So to get Boston to give up Zeke and Co. was darn near genius or armed robbery dependin’ upon how you look at it. Stop me when I start lyin’!
Playas Thesaurus:
1) Dun: noun – the person in question, dude, guy, etc. It’s whoever I’m talkin’ about and its non-gender specific.
The G is excluded from the endings of all words because the G is near and dear to my heart because I’m from “The G” which is Gary, Indiana. So I only use the G when I’m talkin’ about “The G!”
