Woj on Kyrie's wishlist: The interest is NOT mutual! | NBA Today

Adrian Wojnarowski breaks down Kyrie Irving's wishlist of trade destinations if a deal with the Brooklyn Nets is not met.

[TheGamer]

Kyrie: I want my money
Nets: fine, but you gotta play
Kyrie: I want a trade

[MrBonzeMedal]

I get why Kyrie wants to leave. The Nets want to pay him, but asking that he make an attempt to play basketball is too much.

[jamesjones]

It will be hilarious if the nets only have Ben Simmons in the end.

[ElbowJumper]

Kyrie belongs on a team that isn’t a contender. He doesn’t deserve to be on a team with playoff aspirations. The guy brings so much drama, is often plagued with injuries, and when he’s not injured he’s looking for reasons not to play. He’s so talented but he’s not fully committed to the game. Such a shame.

jimmy butler and kyrie as teammates is a disaster waiting too happen

Bron: You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me.

[Publiksquare]

Kyrie and Simmons continued childish behavior and hostage taking is going to screw the players at the next CBA. The owners are going to try and find a way to eliminate this type of behavior and you can't really blame them. These primadonnas are hurting the league.

Employer: Kyrie we want to keep you on but you need to show up to work more often.
Kyrie: I'm out.

[Focalpoint]

Kyrie: I want to leave Lebron's shadow
Also Kyrie: I want to be in Lebron's shadow again

[Soadsgotaload]

Making your wishlist of teams you’d like to get traded to if a deal isn’t made is like writing a list of people you’d like to date if you and your partner broke up.

I know from own experience how a $30 million pay cut feels like. Wouldn’t do it again.

[davidbrackney]

Kyrie is to the NBA what Antonio Brown was to the NFL. They are TOXIC to whatever team they go to. But with that much talent, there's always a team willing to give them a chance.

[DocPatriot]

if they give him that max contract they might as let him run the team cuz they won’t be able to stop him

[elroz]

Cavs, Celtics, and now Nets are finding out what it means to bank on Kyrie. Bad idea.

[coachwalk]

KD has no problem giving his opinion about anything said in the media but will he ever go on the record and give his opinion about Kyrie. This can't be what he signed up for. He has to feel some type of way about it.

[YER]

Kyrie preLebron: 0 playoff games
Kyrie after leaving Lebron:
17-18: Injured before playoffs, team go to ECF game 7 without him.
18-19: Historically bad series vs Milwaukee, shoots 33% FG and 19% 3PT, loses round 2, leaves team.
19-20: Plays 20 games with losing record, doesn’t play in playoffs for Nets who made it despite him missing the whole year
20-21: Injured in playoffs, loses round 2. Losing record without Harden all year.
21-22: Plays 20 games with losing record, gets swept first round and averages 15.3 PPG on 37% FG in the last 3/4 games.
He would be a Kemba Walker clone without Lebron, Harden, and Durant. FREE KD.

[adrianprince]

These players making a mockery of the league. This is why I'll never put lebron and the players of today over players of the past no way.

[beastmry]

People compared Curry to this man 😂
Yeah he's box office and he's arguably more talented than Curry. But imagine having to deal with this. I feel the exact same way about Harden but at least when Harden buys in, he'll play for your team (until he decides it ain't worth it and force his way out)

[Rikcuh]

I know the feeling is not mutual but his best bet is honestly the Lakers. Him and Street Clothes Davis can bond on the bench and the sofa

[bencavert]

Kyrie: I want a max
Nets: play more than 40 games
Kyrie: I’m out
