Four days ago it was my disagreeable duty to commend Kirby Altman and Dan Gilbert for the Kyrie Irving trade. Now, not so much.
Isaiah Thomas, Ky-Baby's replacement, was, as noted here on Tuesday, injured: hip. Hip injuries are, apparently, particularly ominous for athletes. 'Member Bo Jackson? Anyways, since Tuesday there have been the sounds of silence from the principals in this trade. No statement from Ky-Baby, no statement from "IT4", no welcome from LeBron James. Which is portentous.
For, comes now A-Woj dropping one of his bombs: Thomas flunked his physical with Cleve
Which confounded Alt-Bert, too! What to do, what to do. The options are to void the trade, bend over and take it in the ass, or ask Bawston for additional compensation. There is no option to commend Alt-Bert. Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.
