Irving is just a jerk...time to move on - hope he leaves

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

I'm tired of Celtic fans calling for the team's best player to be traded for literally no reason at all.

No reason at all?  His publicly perceived walk back about the desire to stay in Boston is certainly reason.  The question there is whether or not the team believes that was sincerely indicating that he just might prefer to be elsewhere, or was just either Kyrie being Kyrie or a momentary fancy.

Because, if the team thinks that Irving is leaning towards leaving, trading him should absolutely be something Ainge is looking into.

I’m sure the 5 minutes with the media is a completely different world from what Danny and the Celtics see from Kyrie on the regular.  It seems whenever something happens everyone acts like Celtics management is totally out of touch and approaching the situation for the first time.  Our ideas are things they’ve considered and dismissed for good reason, months ago.  They’re there everyday, we aren’t.  I’m pretty sure we’re all good here. 

Yesterday was clearly a moment of frustration from Kyrie and reaction to the media playing BS and games for the last week, messing with Kyrie’s reputation.  I’d be p---ed off too, and I can only imagine how I’d handle it if I were 26 at the time.  He gave vague answers out of spite to the media to not give them what they wanted right then and there.  He’s answered the question before, he plans on resigning.  The Celtics are confident that he’s resigning.  Leave the guy alone and don’t expect to tear him apart then receive graceful responses from him.

You're welcome to speculate wildly the way you just have.  As fans, we all are welcome to that sort of thing.  The Celtics aren't in a position to do that, though.  They need to be as sure as possible.  If Irving is really thinking of leaving, the Celtics need to determine whether or not trading the guy is the way to go, and they only have a limited time to do that.

let's trust danny to do that. he is the GM. not us. you have to drown out the BS noise. stop paying attention to it. it makes people overreactionary.

And I think they are sure, that’s why they haven’t traded him.  That’s kind of what I’m saying.  We see a 5 minute interview, they see him on a regular basis.   They’re infinitely more connected to kyrie than we are, which is why it’s funny when fans seem to have all the answers because they saw a couple media interviews.
