Nets Trade Kyrie Irving To Mavericks I CBS Sports 

Good move by both teams and even better for the Nets. The Nets get back Dinwiddie, a big body in Smith, decent picks, cap space and most importantly, they didn’t allow Kyrie to just walk.

That was a great move by the Dallas Mavericks acquiring Kyrie Irving from the Brooklyn Nets!!! Good move Dallas!!! Let's go Mavericks!!! Welcome to Dallas Kyrie Irving!!! Go Mavs!!!

Kyrie and Luka, two of the most skilled players we have ever seen on one team! Gonna be fun and makes Dallas a contender now.

Kyrie, the temptation that teams can't resist, but end up regretting. Where he goes follows the collateral damage of bad trades and lost draft picks and a franchise effected for years.

On paper Luka & Kyrie is a crazy combination if they can develop team chemistry, but because of their personalities I think they might clash at some point.

Brooklyn should've kept Jared Allen and Caris Levert

Nobody seen this coming. Edit: Spencer goes back to Nets. He almost made all star when he played there. One if the most underrated players

Mavs just made the move to keep Luca, happy for them and Kyrie.

I don't think this was a smart trade. 🤔. Both Kyrie and Luka NEED the ball in their hands. They both are very ball dominant. The question is who's gonna yield their ball dominance ? Dallas is Luka's team it's hard imagining him yielding to kyrie. I predict he does not sign with Dallas .

Now that's how you make a power play making moves that makes sense and cents. Nets did a phenomenal job, good deal, Tony the tiger style tough 👏

Great move Mavericks!! This is huge for us Dallas fans!! The Mavs have a good chance to win a championship before the Cowboys!! Now we have something to feel better about!!

I bet the Nets are glad the distortion is gone. I'd understand any franchise not giving Kyrie a 4 year deal. Because of past actions he's only good for a 1 year deal. Cause for him issues besides basketball affect him so much he apparently can't perform to his full potential. More loyal to his own stances then towards the game of basketball or any franchise. And that is his choice to make, but don't be bewildered when at the same time basketball organizations don't want you around. From an organization perspective I'd never ever trust this man with a 4 year deal. 'Not gonna be able to do it!' Mark Cuban and the organization beware, don't let this twist into a negative influence on your young star if this man becomes a fifth wheel and holds the rest back. We've seen it happen before.

My condolences to the Mavs fans.

Spencer back to Brooklyn! I like it! Hopefully gets more appreciation this time around.

To keep saying the Mavs are currently in 6th place in the West Standings, but when you really look at it, they are only just 2 games back from being in the 3rd spot. The Mavs have had a lot of injuries to several key players, including Luka, but they will soon get back Maxi Kleber and Christian Wood and now Kyrie which will certainly put them into the top 4 where they need to be.

This is a great move for the Mavs. Dinwiddie wasn't going to be signed. Dorian will be missed for his defense but did just sign a long term contract. a first rounder 6 years from now. They are going all in on offense to see if it can propel them to the finals. If it doesn't work.... so what.... you took a swing and lost a first rounder 6 years from now.

Teams built like this will give the refs even more control of the outcomes of games, if possible.

Several thoughts 1. Clearly the Mavericks were the winner on this trade but the Nets really had no other options. 2. Dinwiddie is a good player but he is definitely not on Kyrie's level. Finney Smith is okay but per his stats, his productivity has plateaued out now in his 7th NBA season. Maybe on a new team he could progress. 3. The Mavericks now have to hope several things happen in the near future a. They can resign Kyrie at the end of season b. Josh Green and Christian Wood stay healthy and are productive c. Kyrie behaves himself, is a good teammate, meshes well with Luka, stays healthy and continues to play at this high level.

W for Mavs! Best trade in a while

since the Kyrie trade talks/possible landing spot, I always knew that If anyone was audaciously bold enough to make this trade it was Mark Cuban , dude always gone cut that check 😂

Thank you for allowing yourself to be able to disagree without being disrespectful. Highly appreciated. Great video and perspective.

Kyrie is obviously suffering from a "grass is greener on the other side" symptom. He was unhappy in Cleveland. He was very unhappy in Boston. He then became a Net, and this happened. I wonder when he will become unhappy in Dallas. I would give him a year or 1.5 years.

He is definitely a top 5 pg but it's when he actually plays.

Dallas should have tried to keep Dinwiddie. Looks like the Brooklyn Nets won this trade by a big margin. If Dallas does not win the Western conference, they got fleeced IMO. Now Dallas has to acquire a scorer to replace Dinwiddie to make the team competitive.

ngl i was shocked by this i thought he was going to the lakers but this is a good move lets hope he doesnt cause any drama like he did with the nets

Kyrie and Durant were both unlucky , without injuries they were going to win the ECF and probably the title in 2021, they both were stated as unable to win without lebron an curry and unforunately this is what happened Kyrie and especialy durant deserved to win a new ring in 2021 but it seems that they will remain ringless after the cavs and warriors era

Kinda feel bad for the Nets. It's like when they traded for Celtics players past their prime and it didn't work out. Only difference is they had three guys in their prime in KD, Kyrie, and Harden and it still didn't work. History repeats itself.

Been a Mavs fan my entire life, 40+ years. Had season tickets for over a decade, until I moved across the country. Still a rabid fan. But I’ve never been this embarrassed and disgusted with Cuban or my favorite team. As long as he wears the uniform, I hope they lose every game.

Important note that everyone is missing: Kyrie didn’t approve this trade nor did the Nets care.

Good for both parties. I'm happy for KI he's outta there. I also hope KD have success. But his troubles are not over because I have yet to see anybody in the media to not try to detroy his career.

Back to back …. Good job Mavericks

Kyrie and Luka could be CRAZY

god i haven't watched basketball in a while but this is gonna be amazing to watch if it works. luka and kyrie move through the defence like wrens

This is the worse decision involving personnel by the Dallas Mavericks in NBA History. It won't be long before Ervin rocks the boat and is displeased displaying the baggage he carries wherever he goes. The Mavericks need big men and they gave up way to much.

This has big potential

In 2K this is an awesome deal. In real life though...man...I can already see Kyrie complaining about Luka not passing the rock enough. If Kyrie accepts his role as the secondary piece the Mavs will be super dangerous. But that's a huge *if*.

Good trade for Dallas they might make a run for the chip

I don’t think this gonna work luka gone have to take a step back and let his teammates shine Brunson hooping now cause he has more control instead of luka wanting to doing anything

Doncic and Kyrie going to get 60+ a game - good for Mavs

He be a BIG help in the playoffs

Funny how news networks never give that energy to the bad owners, toxic owners. Its always the players fault when they want out but when an owner wants a players gone , they can trade them without the player even knowing. Hiring a rookie coach with absolutely 0 experience on any level was insane in the first place. Who made that decision ? Yeah - Stop putting the blame on players because they are not happy with an organization decision making , Nets owners needs to worry about child labor allegations

The Nets beat Washington last night without Kyrie, Durant and Simmons and still won. They still got some other talent to work with

Kyrie Irving and Luka like this an interesting duo now on the west coast.

Is this a move to get to the Lakers? I just don't see him being happy in Dallas but it could be magical if he decided to try it

Blessings 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾 I knew he was not on the court because he was transitioning. All the talk about he not wanting to play etc. We have to stop attacking these guys character. Bless 🙏🏾

Depends which Kyrie you get a engaged Kyrie or uninterested Kyrie, Some nights he will makes mavs look really good other we will ask why mavs did this.

I just pray that Kyrie Irvin does not destroy or ruin Luka Cus he has so much potential! Kyrie is the only person that keeps going from good to better to awesome to great situation Even know he disgruntled lmao

It can work. They will match up good vs Warriors and Phoenix 7 game series they have a chance if they make it that far.

Kyrie is the crazy ex with good 📦. You keep giving her chances only to have the same results 😢

I don't see HOW that move gonna work ? Luka the STAR, and Kyrie coming on board HIS ship. The Mavericks better put TWO basketballs on the court. Who's gonna be willing to share just ONE ball. The BIGGEST question is, will Jason Kidd be the coach who can THESE two superstars CO EXIST together on the SAME court ? Only TIME will tell,I will BELIEVE it when I SEE it. Good Luck Mavericks fans.

I'm not a big 🏀 fan but I always wanted to see him in the mavs fr fr

No way KD hanging around, nets are full rebuild now. But problem is the teams that actually have another star can't afford KD, so he might end up in a bum team. Will be sad if KD ends up in Jazz or Bulls. He is my favourite player to watch and that will lose NBA a lot of views

People saying Luka and Kyrie won't work but I think it actually will. Dallas needs another scorer when Luka is sitting and if Kyrie puts up the same numbers as Luka does then the Mavs will be unstoppable for sure.

I knew he wasn’t going to the lakers!!! 🤣😂😂😂 Reality has just sit in!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂

Idk… I’m still old school with the importance of 1. Easy Buckets 2. Ball Passive Buckets 3. Taking opponents out with foul trouble Kyrie and Luka can trade off and provide each other rest, but another HOFer floating Big for league dominance

Coach Kidd is legendary.. he kyrie and luka will do well

Well as a CAVS fan, we now have a chance against Brooklyn minus KYRIE. WOW!!!! Next 2 months gonna be interesting!!!! Get your popcorn 🍿 ready!!!!

Why didn’t the nets ask for kemba ? Get him for cheap and has a lot of upside especially if he’s healthy

What a great trade Dallas headed towards another championship

Cuban is pro jab and has fired many employees within the organization for not being jabbed. Wondering how that will work with Kyrie

Been a Mavs fan since Finely Nash Dirk. (Brad) I trust the Mavs sees something about KYRIE I don't... He's a EXCELLENT PLAYER,when he plays and not a distraction. If he a Luka Gel. They'll be unbeatable. If Kyrie DOES what he did in Bos CLE or Brooklyn....smh. I hope he's to Luka what LeBron was to HIM. That said... I think the NETS won on this Trade. Dinwiddie is Solid. Been Solid. He'll do his Job. Durant will do the rest. GSW WILL REPEAT!!

I don’t know why but I feel like we finna see uncle drew again😭😭

Steve Francis. Allen Iverson. Baron Davis. Kyrie Irving... for real hoop heads we understand that those players are _beautiful basketball players._ Their game is what we all know deep down can and should dominate on the pro level but very rarely do the players with that very specific kinda game make it all the way through the process. Smh. What's understood doesn't need explaining. And if I forgot anyone please shout'em out. Honorable mention to Vince, Tracy, TJ Ford, Chris Kaman, Jokic, John Wall, Rose etc

Congratulations to Kyrie Irving. On his way to destroying another team, and making more enemies, as well as losing fans along the way. I pity the Mavs , and their fans for being in the position of need and desperately trying to assemble some talent. I quess they will learn the hard way.

Luka gonna have his first ring 🤩

I will watch Dallas games now and wish KD good luck.

Luka about to give Kyrie a few more years on his career.

The NETS should’ve hired Mark Jackson as Head coach from the beginning of the NETS “experiment”

Kyrie is going to sign a 4yr max deal and demand a trade to Lakers this off-season….

Kyrie being a top 5 pg is not a thought or feeling. His stats ,talent and what he's accomplished makes him that fools !

I’m a Mavs fan and I like Kyrie but I think this is not a good equation I mean Mavs offense is as good as it gets what they need is a 2 way player who can contribute and also plays defense. Celtics will still be toying the Mavs even tho they have Kyrie tbh

Imagine Luka carrying the Mavs all by himself to the playoffs and WCF... adding Kyrie makes the Mavs dangerous!

Somehow can't imagine Kyrie had Dallas in mind when he wanted out. That's the risk..

They had no plans on sending him to the Lakers

Two ball dominant guards on the same team (one of which literally can't do shit without the ball in his hands). Interesting to see how this is gunna shake out

Kylrie is a Top three point guard, 👉 ✋️ down, keep it Real 💯 👌, Peace.

Not much at all, always Love for Kyrei, Peace

Dude was dripping with hate and kept deflecting accountability by quoting "some GMs". 😂

Luka and Kyrie On the same team My lord!

If he does well i’ll be shocked😂

It's worth it cause I'm not sure luka would understand kyrie 😂.

Hate to say it, but a terrible trade for the Mavs. Luka is very ball dominant, as is Kyrie. As we saw with the Nets with KD and Kyrie, just having two players alternate isos is not a good way to win a championship. Basically, the Mavs gave up a little depth and picks for a temperamental superstar who doesn't put you in championship contention.

If lebron kyrie worked it can work with luka also. Risky trade but a good one as far as i am concerned. No more double teaming luka. Kyrie as SG will have an open lane to the basket all the time. Jesus if it clicks this will be such a destructive offensive back court!

I wouldn’t have made this trade if I were Dallas due to the distraction that Kyrie is

Mavericks needed this 💯

Nets won that one. Spencer is better defensively and he was brought up in the Brooklyn system where he was a All-Star. Spencer, Durant, Curry, Harris, Finley-Smith, O’Neale, Claxton, Wantanabe, TJ Warren! They will definitely compete every night!

Best backcourt in the league

2029 1st round is actually a good pic because kyrie will be 6 years older even if he stays there

Let's hope kyrie can blend in, ;) tv ratings just spiked

Im shocked anyone was willing to take on Irving and all his baggage. Good for the Nets, can finally move forward. Im curious what Durants gotta say about this ?. But 3 teams had interest it sounds like. Amazing basket ball player, but he is trouble and not worth the baggage. I can see this not working out in Dallas. Because it hasnt worked out anywhere hes been !

They were fine without both KD and Irving they were building with the young when they got them that interrupted everything

They're probably just sick of him but at some point GMs need to stop letting the athletes call the shots. Just say no and force them to play. If they are medically cleared to play and don't then they don't get paid and they get fined.

is this better than what the lakers or clippers would offer?

If Kyrie won't get 200million... ya'll know he will sit out and just start with all that drama.. 🤣🤣🤣 Luka will have a headache surely.. 🤣🤣🤣

I want to see Durant in Portland with dame dolla

People are laughing about this 2029 first rounder but it will be used as a trade piece, along with another first rounder, here in the next few days. Nets aren't done yet.

Great deal for Brooklyn!!! Addition by subtraction. They'll be better with him simply out of the locker room and away from the team.

Why? Kyrie only plays one third of the season and can it help when he does not play that much?

Always Love for Kyrei, Peace ✌️.

This year things will be fine. Next year, not so sure
