Smith said that, according to a source, James is the person responsible for Friday’s reports that Kyrie Irving wants out of Cleveland. Watch Smith’s explanation at the 2:10 mark in the video below: When asked about LeBron’s reaction to the news, Smith suggests that he may have been the one that created the unresolved matter it in the first place by spreading word of Irving’s trade demands. According to my sources, they believe LeBron James had everything to do with news getting out that Kyrie Irving wants to be traded, because Kyrie Irving and his representation and others met with the Cavaliers a couple weeks ago, and not a word got out until recently. They believe that LeBron James got word of it and was put off by it and leaked it. I’m not going to accuse LeBron of such a thing. I don’t know that to be true at all. But I know that’s what Kyrie Irving believes. Now that speculation is prevalent, is the Lebron James & Kyrie Irving squad is over?
