Kyrie Irving Reportedly Went Consecutive Days Without Talking to Cavs Teammates

The divide between Kyrie Irving and the Cleveland Cavaliers extends to his fellow teammates after he reportedly went multiple days during the playoffs without speaking to them.

During an appearance on The BBall Breakdown Podcast (via Dan Feldman of NBC Sports), ESPN's Dave McMenamin reported former Cavs forward James Jones said he saw Irving "go consecutive days without speaking to a teammate at practice" between the first and second rounds of the NBA playoffs.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst reported in July that Irving met with Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert to request a trade because he wants to be "more of a focal point" and doesn't want to keep playing with LeBron James.


Windhorst also noted at the time Irving signed a five-year extension with the Cavs in 2014, he expected to be the "franchise player." James returned to Cleveland as a free agent shortly after Irving agreed to that deal.

There hasn't been any movement on a deal involving Irving since his trade request became public. Darren Wolfson of 1500 ESPN in Minneapolis (via Feldman) reported Aug. 4 the Phoenix Suns would be willing to include Eric Bledsoe, Dragan Bender and a 2018 first-round pick in a trade for Irving.

Irving was instrumental in helping the Cavaliers win the 2016 NBA championship. He hit the go-ahead three-pointer with less than one minute remaining in the fourth quarter of Game 7 against the Golden State Warriors.

The 25-year-old Irving set career highs last season with 25.2 points per game and a 47.3 field goal percentage.

James Jones is Lebron's boy... he'll say anything to take the heat off his man.

This was said way before jones said anything

 

[Last Dayz]

Probably got tired of everyone kissing Lebron ass, and when he did talk everyone would only listen to Lebron?

 

[IT IS WHAT IT IS]

Probably got tired of everyone kissing Lebron ass, and when he did talk everyone would only listen to Lebron?

Yeah... the more shit that comes out it appears he wasn't good with LeBron coming back from day one and that he has social issues. Must be hard when you've been the aloha your entire career, even on losing teams, and then you become Robin. He just seems to have bitch tendencies tho...

fuck are u talking about trolling lebron for 8 yrs..i didn't start talking sports on here until maybe 3-4 yrs ago..in fact 8 yrs ago i juss posted fliers to my events..i mostly lurk..either posted pics of strippers or vids of my events..get it rite lying ass nig..i said jordan was better than lebron like 2-3 yrs ago and ur heart started bleeding in pain cause i said that and ever since u been getting mad ever since i posted that

 

[tallblacknyc]

....

 

[ankhheru]

I recall someone placing the blame on LeBron because his father wasn't there. They said Irving pops was there so irving was emotionally stable while LeBron had bitch tendencies.

Well it looks like the rubber has hit the road finally. I said it before and I will say it again, any dude who thinks the world is flat is a herb ass dude. Not too many folks have the pleasure of watching Cavs games on the regular so they don't get to see the after game interviews. Irving ain't wrapped too tight. He's the kind of dude that none of us would really hang with if he couldn't dribble, shoot and pass. Real talk. His personality screams loner and not in a good way.

You was crying bout "Voltron" and Heat fans over 5 years ago. Bron been in Cleveland the last 3. Get your lies straight. Ever since LeBron came in the league you and the other dickriders been overprotective of Jordans legacy. If LeBron wasnt better you wouldnt hate as hard. Now Jordans gonna get trashed the next 20 years cuz yall fanboys put his name on the line, damn shame.

 

[Mr. Met]

Gee, I wonder who leaked that story?

[auggiedoggy]

Durant tries to join a Superteam instead of leading one and he is wrong. Kyrie leaves a Superteam to lead his own team and he is wrong.

Man over that last month Kyrie interviews were all the place.

Shit going into the playoffs or finals(don't remember which one it was) he talked about leading his own team...

I guess he wants what Westbrook have in OKC, but might now realize the work and energy Brodie puts out to.

 

[Complex]

Good point

I was about to say it looked bitch like, but then you made me realize that Lebron allowed James Jones to steal at least five years worth of checks and get a front office position
