Do You Actually Think Kyrie Likes The Idea Of Playing In Boston?

[SCBirdman]

I don't think Kyrie likes the idea of playing in Boston. I believe he LOVES the idea of playing in Boston. So much that he waived a $3 million trade kicker to make the deal work.

[azzenfrost]

I think he does. The franchise's history has some big names that carried the team. Who wouldn't want to be loved as much as PP is?

[Boston Garden Leprechaun]

YES

Isaiah was loved and...

Welp. 

[Eja117]

I think he LOVES the idea of playing with Coach Stevens and personally getting past Bron to get into the finals.

I think he relishes the opportunity to beat Bron and end his "legacy"

Kyrie is absolutely thinking "If I lead the Celtics past Bron and THEN I lead them past Steph Curry/Durant and I win a Finals MVP.....I will automatically be in the MVP conversation every single year. I will automatically be an all NBA guy every year, and I will be an automatic HOF conversation guy. If I stay where I am, at absolute best I'm in the Scottie Pippen conversation. I don't like that idea."

[SHAQATTACK]

I hope so .

but im becoming skeptical of a trade being completed at the moment .


I think Irving has to find a home other than Cleveland..damage done... .....AND

If Boston is that landing spot .......

He may very well end up battling Lebron again in future years

Celtic and Lakers  games .    Im totally convinced Lebron is LA bound.

Welp. 

That is just so not the same... He was here for 2 years. Listen I like Isaiah a lot but he's not a Celtics legend. I'd even rank Rondo ahead of him on that list. In fact that not even in question, I'd definitely put Rondo above him on the list.

Comparing the emotion of his departure to Paul Pierce is not cool.

Agreed for the most part.

Isaiah contributed and is part of the rebuilding era to bring the team back to being competitive. He lived the Boston culture and he loved it and gave for it. Just like every other Boston Celtic have done before him ^^

From the rumors, he wanted to get away from Lebron, all the "circus" that surrounds him and the extra Circus of this season. He just wants to play basketball.

Playing with Hayward,Horford,Brown,Smart, they're straight up no drama ballers. Tatum could even be considered that from interview with his mom, just seems down to earth.

And you have a coach and organization that are the same. Where most organizations are worried how to fill seats, Boston first worry is titles.

This could be a good fit.

You made me think after this. I can only say I expect Kyrie to flourish in Boston!

Welp. 

He is still loved and always will be, like PP

[pearljammer10]

Why wouldn't he?

He waived his trade kicker to come here, he wants to work with Brad Stevens, he recruited Gordon Hayward in the past, the storied franchise and history of Boston.

Plus we're a contender.

[SHAQATTACK]

The Cavs are surely acting out the trade , like Irving is a guy who.ISN'T leaving making demands from standpoint he is coming back if the deal falls though and everything comes up roses .

Irving asked for a trade good while back .  Cavs keep dragging their feet .  The marriage is over , he spent a long time , mulling and  planning to leave . 

The people that own and run the Cavs are amazingly inept.

He must be satisfied with the trade  or else he d be hollering about be shipped to Boston.


Again.....Lebron is the problem ...if he is not there its just another big trade. Please let him go West ASAP.

Ill be so glade when Lebron james is history and the sport can go back to more,stability

Yeah, I think he views it as a better option than Phoenix or Milwaukee in all odds. He had a list of four teams reportedly initially so he's not Melo locked in on one destination.

[BostonClamCrowdah]

How many good  players get to Boston and end up not liking it?

Once they get here, they love it

If you believe David Griffin, we were on his list as well.
