“If you guys will have me back.”
That was preseason caveat Kyrie Irving left with raucous Celtics fans of his plans to re-sign the following summer.
Eight months of misery later, they may not. But could LeBron James be open to a reunion?
Irving has had “discussions with people about playing for the Lakers,” ESPN reported Saturday, another sign his much-maligned time as a Celtic may be over.
“But as time passes here and as the possibility exists that Jason Kidd could be hired as the Lakers coach, I think the possibility of Kyrie and LeBron reuniting — that door, which was deadbolted, has been un-deadbolted and has now been cracked open … It might even be opening more by the day,” Brian Windhorst said on-air, via Hoops Hype.
