Besides claiming that Irving and a pick was offered by the Celtics, Jimmy Stewart also said that Irving would not be on the team opening night even after the Toronto trade for Leonard was confirmed. Clearly, he and his source believe that Irving intends to go to New York at the end of next season unless he is traded prior to then. I have my doubts about all of this, but would it really be that shocking if New York's starting backcourt next year (2019-2020) was Butler and Irving? Also, why DeRozan may be preferrable to Irving for San Antonio is that he will be there for two years under contract with a third year player's option instead of Irving's one year with a second year player's option.
