LeBron’s reaction to Kyrie Irving being traded was surprising. Irving was traded to the Boston Celtics for Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder, Ante Zizic and the Brooklyn Nets 2018 first round draft pick. The tweet below shows LeBron thanking Kyrie for his service. While LeBron’s intent is clear, the tweet shows why Kyrie needed to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Cleveland belongs to LeBron James. Kyrie worked hard, his first few years in the league, but wasn’t able to lead the Cavaliers to the NBA playoffs. Once LeBron returned to Cleveland, Kyrie’s career changed. Irving, James and Kevin Love formed the Big 3 and led the Cavaliers to the 2014-15 NBA Championship.

Kyrie Irving’s career will always be overshadowed by LeBron’s return to Cleveland. When you go from never making the playoffs to playing in the NBA Championship, the player that led you there deserves the credit.
That’s the only way to be to the kid! Special talent/guy! Nothing but respect and what a ride it was our 3 years together Young Gode #Filayy https://t.co/wKYmYsmdgG— LeBron James (@KingJames) August 23, 2017
Kyrie can’t live with LeBron being such a vital part of his career. Irving will get his wake up call this season. He’s talented but he’s a 6’3″ point guard who can’t lead a team to the NBA Finals by himself.
