Sometimes, it feels like the entire NBA revolves around the whims of a few players.
It’s a consequence of the player empowerment era. In today’s game, the best players in the league have more sway over the decisions that teams make than ever before. Whether you like it or not, that’s how it is.
With that in mind, we often find ourselves talking about the same group of guys. What is Kevin Durant going to do? Is LeBron James happy with the Lakers? What about Kyrie Irving?
Perhaps Irving isn’t quite on the same tier – but he isn’t far off, either. More significantly, he’s unpredictable.
We’re always talking about Irving because he’s always giving us something to talk about.
Could he force his way onto the Phoenix Suns this summer?
