Hoops Hype
Cleveland Cavaliers star point guard Kyrie Irving would reportedly prefer to play for the Los Angeles Clippers next season. While speaking with Alex Kennedy on the HoopsHype Podcast, veteran NBA reporter Peter Vecsey spoke about the wild NBA offseason.

Vecsey said around the around one-hour-and-13-minute mark of the podcast that he has been told the Cavaliers point guard would like to play for the Los Angeles Clippers. Reporters have previously mentioned...

The Raptors called the Cavs about Kyrie Irving
Toronto called, but it’s unlikely a deal gets done between the two teams. A possible Kyrie Irving deal remains the Cleveland Cavaliers’ most pressing matter.

"We all do our due diligence," Raptors GM Bobby Wager said in an interview with TSN 1050's Michael Landsberg and Matt Cauz (as transcribed by TheScore's John Chick). "Things don't always make sense, but if they do, we're always prepared. ... A lot of talk that we do ... doesn't really see the light of day. ... When a player like that...

The Cavs still are the top dog in the Eastern Conference. Despite all of the turmoil and uncertainty surrounding how the roster will look, the Cleveland Cavaliers are still the favorite to come out of the Eastern Conference.
