Why Lebron CAN’T HAVE Kyrie Irving, Per the Dallas Mavericks
LeBron James reportedly wants a Kyrie Irving reunion if he returns to the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the Dallas Mavericks have made their stance clear. What does this mean for Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving, the Mavs, and the rest of the NBA this offseason?
Nick Angstadt and Isaac Harris break down why the Dallas Mavericks won’t trade Kyrie Irving, what a hypothetical James Harden sign-and-trade could look like, and how Kyrie’s return elevates Cooper Flagg’s game.

Please retire Kyrie as a Maverick
He can go warriors for butlers expiring and get two unprotected picks 4 plus years from now when he and Steph are retired.
Ok Isaac. You been saying it’s whatever my ky wants. Why would he go to a contender over a rebuilding team.
No harden ever though
He should just come here
Just saw it 70 mm iMax today so amazing wouldn’t see it any other way, I was spoiled.
If LeBron wants Kyrie in Cleveland this is what’s got to happen
(1) Kyrie has to demand a trade and if that happens
(2) include Caleb Martin and Klay in the deal
(3) do not accept James Harden
(4) an Cleveland unprotected first round pick is a must
(5) Max Strus to match contracts
(6) Maleek Thomas has to be a part of the deal
(7) if Gafford is in the deal (I don’t want to trade him) take back Jarrett Allen instead of Strus.
As long as Kyrie knows that we have no expectations and understand it’s a process through the 82. I love Kyrie
Honestly I would listen to trade offers for kyrie.i don't fall in love with player's. If Kyrie is going to have all this limitations. For 39mil am sorry ilf the Spurs offered.. Fox And keldon.or and to first Rd pick. I would do it or pelicans offer 2 first and Zion and Murray. Like Kyrie is aging outwhy pro long rebuild. Giive Cooper his PG and let's go
LeBron, if you want to play with Kyrie again, sign to Dallas.
While i think the chances of LeBron to Dallas are higher than what most people think, one of the reasons he would'nt sign is because he cant pull that LeGM schtick on Masai. It wont work on him.
The way some of your commenters overvalue Daniel Gafford is actually how much Kyrie means to this team, the roster, the players, the fans
Would not be a fan of Kyrie leaving or of Harden being on the team, but it could be funny for the Brian Dameris angle.
Dallas mavericks answer: smd
Only way I would be happy with Kyrie Trade is if Mavs get Dylan Harper Straight up swap, or Fox and a 1st round pick.
Newsflash: Kyrie hates LeBum
Also just a friendly reminder that Kyrie was absolutely and utterly nowhere to be seen in the ‘24 finals. He can go 💅
Trade trade trade unless you think you're winning the championship next year
Took them long enough to show Kyrie some love on this podcast
This season is going to be a movie!!🍿
Isn’t it a little crazy that LeBron James receives universal hate for being a journeyman but Kyrie is mostly loved by Dallas fans for being a journeyman! You think LeBron wants Kyrie in Cleveland but really he just wants to come to Dallas and retire in a city that he knows will LOVE him and not tarnish his legacy! Hopefully people aren’t upset when all this smoke screen goes away and LeBron signs in Dallas 😅
I am afraid about a sudden twist where LeBron really wants to play with Kyrie but Dallas will not let go which eventually leads LeBron forcing his way to Dallas
I really think Kyrie going to come back like KD came back in BKN, Kyrie’s a working geek, he’s making is body ready since more than 1 year right now, full trust in him
I’ll save you 30 minutes. He can’t have him because Kyrie doesn’t like him. How many more LeBum videos on this channel?
Why are we still playing with the idea of trading Kyrie? He needs to retire a Maverick and thats that!! LOL
I LOVE Kyrie, but if they offered Mitchel and draft compensation… I would do it… He's younger more available and everything
LeBron to Dallas?!? Issac is thrilled about it😂
The Mavs haven’t done anything with their vets yet because they’re going to hop into the the LeBron trade and steal good players again
