It is Chaos in Cleveland, Kyrie Wants Out
The Cleveland Cavaliers have been in the spotlight many times this off season and none of it is good. They began their rough off season with the firing of General manager Dan Griffin. A man who helped bring back LeBron and form the team that won Cleveland its only Finals ring. Griffin was reportedly working on a deal that would add Paul George and Carmelo Anthony to the roster, per league sources. To add to the chaos, the Cavaliers are not in any trade talks or free agency contracts without a GM. Kyrie Irving requested to be traded, preferably to the Timberwolves, Heat, or Spurs. Rumors suggest he was tired of being apart of "LeBron's team", and he wanted to be the leader of his own team. Also that he decided to leave because he heard LeBron will most likely leave Cleveland next summer in free agency anyways. Cavaliers' owner, Dan Gilbert, can be solely blamed for almost all of the chaos and panic within its front office during this off season. He hasn't exactly reached out to his star players and shown his level of respect or tried to keep them happy. Gilbert will be the downfall of his own empire by losing the best player in the world and a leading player in the future of the NBA. It will be interesting to see how the team bounces back from this in the upcoming regular season.
