Actually, I'm kidding - you'd have to have been living in a cave for the last year to have not caught wind of some of the worst dysfunction I have ever seen a team go through - so bad, it's hard to find two guys who have not been linked in mutual enmity over the last few weeks. So it should come as no surprise to hear that Kyrie Irving was so intent on getting out of there this summer, he threatened to have knee surgery that would take him out of commission for much if not all of the present season if they did not trade him, according to Cleveland.
