Source close to Celtics says Kyrie is genuinely interested in reuniting with LeBron — "That is for real," per @RicBucher

I have no idea who Ric Bucher is, nor do I trust Bleacher Report but, since it's been a crazy enough day with unsubstantiated rumors everywhere, let's throw in one more...

"The Lakers may need to get creative to force the Pelicans' hand, but they have reason to be. While the news since last summer has been largely about stars not interested in being LeBron's sidekick—George's decision to re-sign with the Thunder, Jimmy Butler not having the Lakers on his reported preferred list and Kawhi Leonard reportedly favoring the Clippers—a source close to the Celtics confirmed that Kyrie Irving is genuinely interested in reuniting with his former Cavaliers teammate. "That is for real," the source said.


A core of James, Davis and Irving would be enough to get visions of Title 17 dancing in Lakers fans' heads."

Lebrons agent seems to have paid every sports media outlet to spread a different  rumor

At this point I don’t care. He can go play in Lebron’s shadow for five years also, but I’m over speculating.

It certainly is weird that he released a commercial saying he wanted his number in the rafters and said he was re-signing with Boston and now all this leaks out. If there’s any truth to it, then it just shows the NBA stars live in such a different world than the rest of us.

Didn't he break the Lowry to Heat sign&trade? And Bosh opting out in Miami after Lebron left to go back to the Raptors? Oh, right.....

I guarantee that Bucher doesn’t have any close Celtics sources.

If this happened, id do what other people said- stop watching basketball entirely. The league has shown zero care about even and fair competition.

I'm not buying any of this. This is an attempt to get AD mind on the Lakers and only the Lakers.

Kyrie needs to either refute it publicly or Ainge needs to sit him down and ask him straight up. If he gets any inkling that he's not o  board....trade him. Period

Rich Paul has really gotten on his knees for all these media guys. They’re generally completely out of it, but this is just overwhelming.

Everyone from Klay and AD to Kyrie wants to be LeBron’s sidekick according to them.

Same folks who said PG13 was a lock to be a Laker until he resigned in OKC

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)

PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

I think it would be a snowy day in hell if that happened, personally. Seems to be more disinformation being spread to coincide with the AD request for a trade. Strange how all these rumors regarding Kyrie are all coming up now.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Rich Paul is going all he can to muddy the waters because he knows the Pelicans aren't trading AD before next week.

Kyrie probably doesn't want to dignify it with a response.

At this point I don’t care.

Kyrie is immature. If he wants to stay here and grow up then he can. But he seems like a guy who is never happy regardless of the situation. He can go play in Lebron’s shadow for five years also, I’m just over it.

Kyrie: "I plan on resigning in Boston."
Sources: "He might not because we heard there was a growing sensation of a possible feeling..."
Celtics Fans: "Kyrie needs to grow up. He's never happy."
