People around league think LeBron James is 'opening the door' for Kyrie Irving trade?
According to a recent report from ESPN’s Zach Lowe, James coming to Irving’s defense could be a signal that he still wants the Lakers to acquire the polarizing star. “Look, I don’t know why LeBron said what he said about Kyrie yesterday,” he said. “About how it’s time to bring him back in the league. “Maybe he just said it because he believes and there’s nothing else to it. I can tell you around the league and even within the Lakers, some corners of it, those comments were read as LeBron opening the door to…at least opening the door to, ‘Hey, if you all are comfortable with it and all the blowback it would be, and the Nets are willing to just get out of the business now of Kyrie Irving so we can get him for much cheaper, not both picks, maybe one pick.’”

Erik Slater: Royce O’Neale when asked how Brooklyn will maintain their system when Kyrie Irving returns: “The same way we’ve been doing. He’s a great player, an All-Star. I mean, I feel like we can adapt to whoever. We know he brings what to the table and we need that going forward.” -via Twitter @erikslater_ / November 11, 2022
Erik Slater: Nic Claxton when asked if the team is playing a different style without Kyrie: “Nah. I feel like once we get him back, the way we’re playing right now, it’s going to break the game wide open.
