NBA Twitter Reacts to Report That Kyrie Irving Wants Out of Cleveland

On Friday afternoon, ESPN.com's Brian Windhorst reported that star point guard Kyrie Irving requested a trade from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The most jaw-dropping part of the report? Uncle Drew no longer wants to play with LeBron James; per Windhorst, Irving wants to be a "focal point."

Fans on Twitter went into a frenzy, and rightfully so (warning: NSFW language):

Kyrie got his ring early. He’s got the Young Kobe syndrome. I can’t be mad at him. He’s in for a rude awakening, though. Like Kobe.
