Kyrie Wants to Stay in Brooklyn, How Donovan Mitchell Impacts the Kevin Durant Sweepstakes & a Potential Landing Spot for Jimmy G

Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today’s episode, Jason and Producer Rob G kick things off with a deep dive into the report that Kyrie Irving would prefer to stay with the Brooklyn Nets – whether Kevin Durant remains on the team or not. Has Kyrie finally come to the realization that no other team actually wants to trade for him so he’s trying to save face? Or is this just the latest case of an NBA franchise trying to manipulate a member of the media to get their preferred narrative out to the public? We’ll find out soon enough. Speaking of the Nets, now that Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell is officially on the trade block, it’s safe to say that his future is now directly tied to Durant’s. That’s not to say that the two all-stars will ultimately get traded for each other, but rather that any team linked to KD will also now be linked to Mitchell. Later, the guys explain why Scottie Pippen is correct when he says that it’s tougher to be successful in today’s NBA than it was back in the 1990s. Players are bigger, faster and more skilled than ever before, so it only makes sense the competition would be greater as well. Finally, J-Mac closes the show by discussing why he thinks the Cleveland Browns should try to trade for Jimmy Garoppolo to hold down the fort while Deshaun Watson is out due to suspension. In fact, Jason argues that Jimmy G as the bridge quarterback would actually make the Browns the team to beat in the AFC North.
