Shaq says "...he wants to be the man now..." which I think is oversimplified.  IMO, it's more like he DOESN'T want to be Scottie Pippin.  There's a subtle difference.

I bet knowing how he feels about LeBron that he would not like the "Green King" moniker.  He wanted to escape the guy, now you insult him with this nickname?

It may be more complicated than that.  Maybe there were some underlying issues with the front office (like when he was injured), the firing of the GM he got along with and was up front with him, or even any of the players like Lebron.  Plus you factor in the Lebron centric offense they run, the much better coaching staff we have and FO stability.  It could be a combination of all those things why he wanted out.

Is the Green King something people are calling Kyrie?

In my head, I've been calling him the Wizard of Causeway Street.

Anyone else think that mix is terrible? The cuts are so quick, you see about 1/4 of each play.
