NBA fans are kicking LeBron James now that Kyrie Irving is headed to Dallas instead of Los Angeles.
Kyrie Irving has made the NBA world go crazy in the past 48 hours, surprising everybody when he requested a trade out of the Brooklyn Nets. This situation sparked a lot of rumors around the league, and plenty of teams started working on getting a deal done with the Brooklynites.
Among those teams, the Los Angeles Lakers appeared to be clear-cut favorites to land Kyrie given the reported interest of Kyrie in reuniting with LeBron James, and the Lakers need to add a player like Irving to their roster.

LeBron James Can't Reunite With Kyrie Irving On Lakers
This is a great move for the Mavs, who were urged to give Luka Doncic the help he needs to compete for a championship, and if Kyrie stays out of trouble, the Texan team will be a threat in the stacked Western Conference.
While it was a great move for the Mavs, it was terrible for the Lakers and LeBron James. Following the news, Legion Hoops shared a hilarious tweet speculating about LeBron's reaction once he learned about the Kyrie trade. As usual, more fans joined the party, going off on the King.

Mark Cuban on COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates: ‘I Require My Employees to Be Vaccinated’
One would think Irving would have worn out his welcome after his performances in Cleveland - Boston - Brooklyn.... but I suppose the Mavs think he can make some positive contribution. Personally I think he’s a team cancer. We’ll see.
Yeah, just like Cuban thought bringing in Lamar Odom was a good idea.
The NBA is a clown show.
Ball hog who makes everyone around him worse. I saw how he held back Jayson Tatum in Boston. Wasted year for Tatum.
LEAVE LEBRON ALONE. can’t you all see what a victim he is??? A billionaire black man who gets untold millions to chase a ball is obviously a victim of the most racist country in the history of humanity. POOR LEBRON. We all need to take a knee for his suffering. Imagine how you would feel being given a billion dollars to chase a ball around?
