I've been saying since his demand broke that Thomas, Crowder, Rozier, and Boston's 1st for Irving makes a lot of sense for both teams. I doubt it happens but would be reasonable
That's because you're Moranis. Others would prefer to not have a brain dead, locker room cancer loser on the team.
It's hard to take some you seriously when you make comments like this. Irving is a lot things, but he's a 4-time All-Star who's still just 25 years old. Is it questionable he wants to leave a winner? Possibly, but we don't know all of the behind the scenes machinations at work in Cleveland. Or maybe - just maybe - he's tired of being at the mercy of Lebron's whims. Right now, Cleveland is a winner but Lebron can torpedo that in a year. He's done it before.
In all fairness, this is the same guy that said the earth is flat and didn't talk to teammates for two straight practices during the playoffs. It may be harsh and hyperbole, but it's not far off.

1. Irving was trolling with that earth is flat thing. The fact that people still don't see that is hysterical. Alternative facts, indeed.
2. Again, that's one side of the story. Interesting that him not speaking to teammates only came to light after his trade request became public.
1.Was he trolling by saying we didn't land on the moon, Jamaican assassins killed JFK and aliens live among us? Either he's constantly trolling or he's an utter moron. Neither is a good thing.
2. Have you heard any of his teammates sticking up for him? No? That silence says everything you need to know. Sometimes there is only one story.
3. He'd rather be "the man" than win, hence the trade demand. Have you heard of another guy who wants to leave Lebron, who is known as one of the best teammates in the league?
I never said he wasn't talented. But he's lazy on defense and that attitude carries both on and off the court. I've never been impressed with Irving's demeanor or his drive to win. If a guy like that isn't committed now, what happens when he gets $150m?
He's just someone who should only ever see the visitor's side of a locker room in the Garden...to be candid, I'd rather have Cousins than Irving. At least Cousins generally gives his all on the floor.
