A bombshell trade happened as Kyrie Irving was finally dealt to Boston. Of course once news about him wanting to be traded went public, tons of NBA were calling except for one. Why, well because they are the defending champions and also because the Cavs called them.
Marc J. Spears of ESPN reported that the Cavs called the Warriors about a possible Kyrie/Klay trade and well…
Altman was extremely focused on the future in making this trade, a source said. This trade may give James much more faith in Altman as a general manager.

Warriors were flat out uninterested.
Cavs GM Koby Altman is trying to make a good impression because LeBron. This was a reach but you miss every shot you don’t take, right?
