The one thing regarding all of the controversy around Kyrie is that there was never a single thing that he's done that called out teammates or had teammates call out him. Every issue with Kyrie was directed toward the Nets front office and then all of the off court stuff. You will never find an interview with Kyrie where he talks down about someone like coach Pop or Tony Parker.
I think the other side of this is what F Gump said. Kyrie is just a MUCH better player than Murray so I don't really understand what we're doing here anyway. We have a great fit between Luka and Kyrie, how many times do reset a star pairing together? That is just going to force us to start building chemistry from the beginning again.
