Report: Kyrie giving no indication he will leave Boston

[jambr380]

In today’s NBA, a dominant wing is way more important than a dominant big.

I am a bit concerned about selling the house for AD.  Cs got further than AD ever has.

Well, we will still have two high level wings when this is all said and done in Hayward (I know  ) and probably Brown. If there was any way to hang on to Tatum, I would be all for it; otherwise, I am okay moving forward with AD, Kyrie, Horford, Brown, and (a healthy) Hayward as our starters.

[Tr1boy]

I never understood the lure of being a New York Knick.  I understand LA Lakers, but I don’t get what is it about being a Knick.

The Knicks are no Yankees - sorry Knicks fan.  Your franchise has always been overrated; even in good times.

...being a Laker or Celtic is way cooler.

You have visited New York city right?

It is one of the most visited cities in the world for a reason

these guys are not joining the team due to their history.  But the city, media and madison square garden

Visiting the City does not mean you have to play for them.
its always better if your playing for a winning organization.

Kyrie will re-sign and reup in Boston because he wont make the same amount  of money elsewhere. this is regardless of whether we get AD or not, because even if we do not get AD, Kyrie knows the organization is in good hands and would still be winning loads of games because the kids will eventually mature..heck they already are battle tested in the POs.

Its not the supermax... you think 40-50 million will deter him? 

The guy walked away from supermax potential with the Cavs....  He cares about money but doesn't seem like it at the very top

Kyrie joining the Knicks with Butler and Durant shouldn't be taken lightly

the owners can tell them, its their team.... they can bring in whoever, have a say in the draft etc.

Kyrie's chances of winning a championship, with AD, in Boston is higher than if he goes to NY.

Celts have a better coach and a better team.

Unless something drastic happens, like Celts exiting in the 1st round, I don't think Kyrie will change his mind.

Kyrie said he will re-sign with the Celts.
I believe him.

I don't

I don't even believe Danny with anything HE says

Remember that Irving was traded to Boston....he just wanted out of Cleveland/out of Bron shadow

Irving can easily go to a preferred destination

I don't believe a word he said (which could have been a ploy to get the media off his back)... until he signs the paper

Well it's clearly failed since you buy into all the media narratives regarding his desire to leave - a desire which has never been expressed by him. In fact, he's only said the opposite.

I don't get what you wan't if you are openly ignoring what he's publicly said

Good Lord, that logic though!

[KGBirdBias]

Ainge will quickly turn his attention to other FAs if he feels AD will not sign and Kyrie wants to leave.

NY can't sign 3 guys, they can sign 2. If Ainge can land AD, it will keep Kyrie from looking at NY...plain and simple. KD and Butler will be in NY.

If Ainge cant get AD but for a rental, the work then falls on Kyrie to get AD to stay.

[KGBirdBias]

BTW, the Knicks wouldn't be Kyries team it would be KDs team.

It seems that both KD and Kyrie want their own team to lead so there may be conflict in them joining together.

[ozgod]

There's obviously no guarantees that Kyrie will re-sign, just as there are no guarantees in life. But if you look at probabilities, based on what he has said, how he has behaved, I would suggest it is more likely he will re-sign than not. It's not 100% but that's why Danny gets paid the big bucks, to make decisions based on incomplete information and uncertainty. You do what is in your power to keep him here and if he leaves so be it. I'm sure there's a contingency plan for Kyrie not re-signing, Danny would be silly to not cover all the possibilities no matter how small.

True.

One contingency plan for Kyrie is he will get traded, on or before the Feb. 7 deadline, if Ainge is convinced Kyrie will not re-sign with Boston this summer.

But that's highly unlikely.
I think Kyrie's going to remain in Boston for a very long time.
