Does anyone want troublemaker Kyrie Irving on their squad?
ESPN’s top NBA reporter Adrian Wojnarowski discussed the Kyrie situation in the latest episode of his podcast with guest Malika Andrews, and called the trade market for Irving as âdicey,â explaining that other teams are extremely wary of trading for Kyrie Irving.
âI think the trade market for him is going to be very⊠I think itâs dicey,â Wojnarowski said. âYou donât know what you would be trading for. You donât know whether he wants to play. Does he want to play for you? Does he want to play at all?
He wanted Brooklyn, he wanted Kevin Durant. He wanted to play for the Nets, his childhood team. And thereâs been a lot of instances where⊠itâs fair to question how much he wanted to play.â
Wojnarowski also said that a much-discussed Irving for Ben Simmons trade is unlikely to happen.
âI know everyone sees thereâs this easy trade. Ben Simmons, Kyrie Irving, thatâs this easy trade. I know this â that phone callâs never been made. Philadelphiaâs talked to everybody. Simmons, like, itâs not been from a lack of creativity in terms of trying to identify guys around the league they would do for Simmons. They have not made that call to Brooklyn and I donât know that they ever will. Things could change, but they havenât made it yet, Iâm not sure theyâre going to make it.â
These guys aren’t worth the headache.
Are they great players? Sure, but apparently not worth it.
