Kyrie Irving

Good call. Hit him with the paperwork while he's still drunk! :chuckles:

#cavsgoodkarma :chuckles:

I'm as happy as anyone about this possibly being wrapped up soon...

But let's pump the brakes a LITTLE bit until he puts pen to paper. Last year it took til September for Paul George to sign his.

Paul George's contract wasn't expiring last year. He signed almost a year in advance.

Either is Kyrie's. Kyrie would be doing the same thing.

Correct. Exactly the same thing. Extensions can't be agreed upon until the end of a player's third year. This is the soonest a player could possibly commit longterm to his franchise.

@Chris_Broussard
Sources close to @KyrieIrving say he's happy so far with coach David Blatt. "Most positive talk I've ever heard btwn Kyrie & Cavs," said 1

David Blatt

So you're saying if I get his jersey I will have at least 6 years with it before I have to worry about him leaving? Hell yeah

Someone bring me the bottles of tears from Lakers forums. They will nourish us all.

So....how's Windhorst's report a couple months ago that Kyrie wanted out....? Hmmm....hack.

 

[Nightperson]

Wiggins and Irving for 5+ years. Can't wait.

Lol, all the bandwagon NBA fans on twitter are turning against Kyrie right now.

What a ESPN machine asshole that guy has become. It is very sad.

 

[kevin02]

I confused myself all the whole 5 or 6 years thing.

For those who are dumb like me, the extension is for 5 years but he still has one year left on his rookie deal.

 

[Hydroponic3385]

I'm so confused. The past year of Kyrie photoshopped into a Lakers uniform - does all that mean nothing? :chuckles:
