The Cavaliers and Celtics have made a blockbuster deal, and many NBA fans are already very clear. It was the Cavaliers who "sent" Irving to the Celtics, getting some players, including Thomas Jr., and the Nets' 2018 first-round picks. And it has already been announced by the Celtics' official social media. At this point, the Irving summer transfer farce has obviously settled.
It is this deal, presumably many fans and friends have already blown up in private. Some say that the Cavaliers executives are really stupid, some say that the new season opener has a look (Cavaliers-Celtics, 2017-2018 season opener), of course, a major NBA deal will naturally cause a topic. The editor has written an article about Irving's transfer a few days ago, mentioning that former Cavaliers manager Griffin has revealed that Irving has made the Celtics one of his next home. Unexpectedly, this thing really came true.
So now that the matter has come to an end, the most interesting thing about this matter is how the Cavaliers James reacted. As we all know, as long as there is James, the Cavaliers must still be a team that thrives in the East. This time Irving was finally traded out, is James's heart bitter or sweet? This is really hard to say. Everything is two-sided, and Presumably James and the Cavaliers will be able to understand the pros and cons.
Saying that James is bitter in his heart is actually very simple. Irving is also an absolute superstar in the current league, and his ability at key moments is also outstanding. With such a little brother to assist, James may not be absolutely handy, at least there is still a bottom in his heart (stable to the Finals). There's a steady helper in the finals, who wouldn't want that? Once Irving leaves, the new lineup will have to be adjusted, and who can say that the Cavaliers will be able to play the Finals in the new season?
There are several reasons for saying that James is sweet in his heart. The Cavaliers replaced Irving, albeit out of necessity, but in exchange for Thomas Jr., one of the league's few low-paid and efficient players. Thomas Jr.'s style of play is also different from Irving's. There is no Irving ambition, but also has a big heart, and the ability to score key battles is equally outstanding. Really in the finals, in addition to attacking the city, the ball belongs to James in the end, how can I not be happy in my heart. There is also the fact that the Cavaliers have played with the Warriors for three years, and the clear-eyed people know it at a glance. If the original lineup is maintained, the Cavaliers will most likely repeat the same mistakes. It is better to break through and stand up, and perhaps there can be a very different path.
So, no matter what kind of relationship Irving has with the Cavaliers, what kind of relationship is with James? Now, Irving is determined to set up another door, and this courage deserves the admiration of many fans, in short, bless Irving, thank you for many years in the Cavaliers to dedicate us to the unparalleled basketball game.
