Mike Greenberg actually made a pretty good point the other day, this is the first time ever that Irving hasn't been far and away the best scoring option on his team. He just doesn't know what to do

In the NBA, maybe. But he played his lone year at Duke with 2 First Team AA (Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith). He also was on a HS team with Michael Kidd-Gilchrest.

As as you can probably tell, I disagree with that point.

The first part may be right, the second part shouldn't be that fucking difficult. Take the shot if you have it, or pass to the other good players.

Pretty sure greeny was talking about dion, not Irving

Unless there was a different segment that I didn't hear but I remember they were talking about dion for a long time one day. I listen to a lot of mike and mike

I feel ya. Now you know how I feel when my choices are listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd (classic rock) for an hour or Cleveland sportstalk. :(

I agree but I remember in high school getting a transfer from a shitty school who was pretty good that just became a black hole on offense. Just could not shed that I gotta carry my team mentality and became a bench guy by playoff time

I think he played 10. Either way, it's wrong. Even going back to HS.

As I said, in the NBA he has been the best scorer on the Cavs. But at no other time was he the best player on his team by far. Arguably, he wasn't the best on his team UNTIL the NBA.

This was a good comparison. Would read again. A+

He is smart to opt out. He gets more money.

He's not going anywhere though.

The fact that this report is out after 1 week of the season after a forced trade to Cleveland makes it 200% unbelievable instead of just 100%

I think the Cavs win by double digits tonight. Love, KI, and Lebron all go for 20+

The threat of Love to LA will be there. But, again, he's not going anywhere. IF he opts out, it's to get more money. Which is what he should do.

What threat? There is no chance of Love going to LA so I don't see any threat.

I should have said "threat".
