Kyrie Threatened Season Ending Knee Surgery If Cavs Didn't Trade Him

Kyrie should have the surgery now.

I'm assuming he just needs a scope around the kneecap.  This type of surgery can wait until the off-season and is typically a 6 week recovery at worst. 

As for Kyrie's demands to sit out, this once again falls back on LeBron if true.  Lebron created a toxic environment so I don't blame Kyrie for playing hardball.  These are the types of things that exist within fractured organizations.

This rumor smells fishy.

I think it's just cleveland trying to do damage control after the trade looks lopsided in hindsight now.

It would be hilarious if Irving sits out the all star game for knee soreness now that he is on team LeBron

That would make this the most entertaining All-Star weekends in a long time
