Only Durant — one of the best scorers in basketball history — remains in Brooklyn. But Harden sought a trade last season and now Irving is gone. (Bloomberg) -- Kyrie Irving — a gifted NBA guard who couldn’t escape controversy during his tenure with the Brooklyn Nets — was traded to the Dallas Mavericks, ESPN reported.

Kyrie Irving is headed to Dallas, just days after he requested a trade out of Brooklyn.

Il y a un pessimisme sur le fait que les Lakers vont faire le trade de Kyrie Irving à cause de ses demandes contractuelles. « Irving devrait demander 4 ans et un contrat maximum, alors que les Lakers préfèrent un deal de deux ans, pour s’aligner avec le contrat James.

Kyrie Irving's rocky tenure with the Brooklyn Nets ended Sunday when the veteran guard was traded to the Dallas Mavericks, according to multiple reports.

Irving's tenure with the Nets was marred by his refusal to be vaccinated for the coronavirus and his posting of a link to an antisemitic film.

With Kyrie Irving now traded to the Dallas Mavericks, his Brooklyn Nets tenure is being eulogized across the NBA world — and former Boston Celtics ...

Fast forward to a year after Irving’s departure from Boston, and you’ll see another team that made it to at least the conference finals. While it’s taken Cleveland a while to get back to relevancy, it was James’ departure that collapsed the Cavs. When Kyrie forced the Cleveland Cavaliers front office’s hand with his trade demand, the team was still able to make the following season’s Finals being led by LeBron James and a host of role players.

How did the Nets and Mavericks fare in this deal? The Sporting News breaks down trade grades for each team below.

By acquiring both of their priorities, the Nets can confidently say that they did not "settle" in the accepted deal. He is eligible for a two-year, $83 million extension now and a four-year deal in the summer. Irving's most recent request stemmed from the Nets' inability to commit to him long-term. Dallas has tried different approaches to build around Doncic, but in Irving, has successfully acquired the best teammate that he has ever had. Irving, who will turn 31 in March, is enjoying one of the best statistical seasons of his career. Doncic and Irving would form a similar one-two punch as Irving did with LeBron James when they were teammates in Cleveland.

Kyrie Irving a eu gain de cause. Le meneur des Nets vient d'être tradé aux Mavs. La fin d'une aventure pour le moins... tumultueuse.

En fin de contrat au terme de la saison, Kyrie Irving ne pouvait décemment pas rapporter beaucoup plus à Brooklyn compte-tenu de son profil et du fait qu'il recherche, a priori, un contrat de 3 ou 4 ans. Ce sont finalement les Mavs qui ont décidé de passer à l'action et d'offrir un partenaire offensif de grand talent à Luka Doncic, ne serait-ce que l'espace de quelques mois. Les Nets n'avaient vraiment plus envie de devoir gérer les états d'âme et les changements d'humeur et d'avis de leur meneur.

The Mavericks know Kyrie Irving comes with questions. But they also know they couldn't wait for the future to maximize the Luka Dončić era.

Dallas also made sure to hold onto rookie guard [Jaden Hardy](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/jaden-hardy-qVOzeYX5dZEWtfyp/), a raw combo guard who currently has minor trade value, but meaningful upside in the coming seasons. Without Dončić, Irving is much more likely to replicate league-average offense output in the same manner he did in Brooklyn, where the lineups with him and without [Kevin Durant](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/kevin-durant-ho6h1sijyi2PAURU/) averaged 116.7 points per 100 possessions this season — nearly 10 points more than the Dončić-less lineups have done this year in Dallas. For all of Irving’s unmistakable talent on the basketball court, it matters little if he’s not on it. But there are other, more fraught paths that exist in this deal that the Mavericks made on Sunday. In the wake of this trade, league sources believe the Mavericks wouldn’t have traded two starters for Irving if they didn’t have plans to re-sign him this summer. Irving has only played 143 games over the past four seasons thanks to a combination of injuries, suspensions and policy violations. In trading for Irving — and doing so one year after dealing away [Kristaps Porzingis](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/kristaps-porziis-iXclBS6oo11am7Ru/) — Harrison has chosen his first team-building test. It was a decisive, proactive move that the Mavericks’ front office chose to reshape its roster around Luka Dončić, [something that was inevitable](https://theathletic.com/4115589/2023/01/23/mavericks-trade-rumors-luka-doncic/) at some point. The team’s 23rd-ranked defense won’t be helped by Irving’s addition or the departure of Finney-Smith, though the Mavericks hope to bolster it with another trade later this week. [unstoppable dilemma](https://theathletic.com/4023901/2023/01/04/luka-doncic-mavericks-defense-scheme-pointless/) who caused coaching staffs to become too frazzled to even strategize against. But the crux of the Mavericks’ decision to trade for Irving came down to a fairly simple point: They’d rather deal with those questions now, ones attached to the most talented teammate Dončić has ever played with, than future questions they cannot and would not know until (or if) another opportunity appeared. Now the team has replaced Dinwiddie for Irving, an offensive marvel just as dangerous playing off the ball than with it.

Au final, la franchise a décidé d'accepter celle des Mavericks, mais pas forcément parce que cette dernière était meilleure. En effet, l'insider Marc Stein a ...

Même si l’offre des Lakers était meilleure que celle des Mavericks, les Nets n’auraient pas accepté. Rob Pelinka a fait l’effort, mais il n’avait manifestement aucune chance de conclure ce dossier, pas avec ce comportement des Nets. La franchise ne voulait pas négocier avec Rob Pelinka et compagnie, ce qui ne devrait pas plaire à une bonne partie de la ligue. Selon Marc Stein, Joe Tsai, le propriétaire, ne voulait absolument pas négocier avec les Pourpre et Or. En effet, on apprend via divers insiders que les Suns et les Lakers ont également formulé des offres. En à peine deux jours, les Nets ont reçu de nombreuses offres pour céder Kyrie Irving.

Fallout from the Mavs-Nets megadeal might be felt this week ... or maybe this summer.

[Luka Dončić](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/luka-doncic-gMyReUOesjAikT7S/). [Kevin Durant](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/kevin-durant-ho6h1sijyi2PAURU/). much as happened with [James Harden](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/james-harden-xj359Qh34ugWFbVp/) in Brooklyn. They also have expiring contracts ( [Dwight Powell](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/dwight-powell-BhTxjrEIUSrtsBS0/), [Frank Ntilikina](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/frank-ntilikina-ED8ru3pDGnaPdwH9/), a partially guaranteed [Reggie Bullock](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/reggie-bullock-ikD8UAkJCkf8mvyF/) and perhaps even [Christian Wood](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/christian-wood-9N0XSWw21RX1pkVk/)) to put on the table with a future first to get win-now help for the Luka-Kyrie pairing. Again, they are all in whether or not they like it, and part of the prize here is that they got two real players for Irving rather than just, say, picks from the Lakers. That Nets team would be limping into the summer with a soon-to-be-35, not-terribly-happy franchise centerpiece in Durant, and the prospect of owing picks and swaps to [Houston](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/rockets/) through 2027 boxing out any tanking scenarios. Irving is arguably the league’s most brilliant finisher, a whirling shake-and-bake ankle breaker off the bounce and a knockdown shooter off the catch or the dribble (39.1 percent career from beyond the arc). His money free-throw shooting (88.2 percent career) also offers Dallas a strong end-game option, especially since that’s the weak link in Dončić’s offensive game. Between age, ability and contract, he has more trade value than any other player in the association. Given the fact that Durant already demanded a trade once, and that he’s for the moment marooned as the only All-Star (not even the most die-hard [Nets](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/nets/) fan can muster a hopeful “ [Ben Simmons](https://theathletic.com/nba/player/ben-simmons-xfSMIwcIYOvLWzUw/)?”) on an old team without much draft capital, his situation warrants monitoring. [the Kyrie Irving trade](https://theathletic.com/4158002/2023/02/05/kyrie-irving-trade-nets-mavericks/) that nobody is quite thinking about just yet: I expect teams to be very guarded with their future first-round picks this week, much more so than they would have been oh, say, Sunday morning.

Adding Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant hasn't led to a conference finals berth, much less a championship. After meeting Irving's trade request, the Nets are ...

[asked for a trade in June](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/30/sports/basketball/kevin-durant-trade-demand-nets.html) and was given permission to seek one, but couldn’t find one to which the Nets would agree. [some irony](https://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/24/sports/basketball/nets-disastrous-deal-with-the-celtics-keeps-getting-worse.html) to the Nets’ being eliminated by the Celtics. The [Boston Celtics swept the Nets](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/25/sports/basketball/nets-eliminated-celtics-sweep.html) out of the first round of the 2022 playoffs. In 2013, the Nets gave up five players, three first-round picks and the option to swap another first-round pick for four players, including [Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett](https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/29/sports/the-nets-go-big-bold-and-old.html). It’s possible that once he’s healthy he will lead the Nets to a strong finish this season. Do the sources know the information? And so, for the past three and a half years, the Nets firmly set their sights on a championship that, they believed, the arrivals of Irving and Durant had put within reach. They gave up a king’s ransom to do it: The package included three first-round picks, four pick swaps and Jarrett Allen, a talented young center who has found success, including an All-Star selection, in Cleveland. In return, the Nets will receive two players, a distant first-round draft pick and multiple second-round picks. “I’m consistently in the lineup, that helps,” Irving said. Having superstar talent is the only surefire way to win a championship in the N.B.A. After meeting Irving’s trade request, the Nets are once again in a state of uncertainty.

Now, just days after requesting a trade from the Nets due to what he viewed as an untenable contract situation, he's off to Dallas to play with one of the ...

In theory, Durant, Simmons and the roster of role players they've assembled should be more than enough to be competitive, but what we have seen from Simmons this season makes it hard to view him as anything but an albatross contract. The Nets just traded their second-best player, who happens to be close friends with their best player, for a package of largely win-now assets. The Rockets share a division with the Mavericks. The two complement each other well on the court, with Irving's ability to shoot from the perimeter as well as being one of the greatest shot-creators the game has seen. [NBA](/nba/). Now, just days after requesting a trade from the Nets due to what he viewed as an untenable contract situation, he's off to Dallas to play with one of the game's transcendent superstars in Luka Doncic. Given that the entire league probably had an inkling that Irving wouldn't play another game with the Nets, Sean Marks and the front office ended up with a solid haul. [Brooklyn Nets](https://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/BKN/brooklyn-nets/) traded [Kyrie Irving](/nba/players/1779901/kyrie-irving/) just days after he requested that the organization find him a new home. Now Durant has a crucial decision about whether he wants to stick with the Nets or renew his trade request from last offseason. That keeps the Nets, with a healthy Durant, at least relevant in the Eastern Conference hierarchy, while the draft assets allow them to build toward the future and/or flip them for another star. He's likely going to receive the financial assurance he failed to get from Brooklyn. Here's a look at the specifics of the trade, along with some winners and losers.
