The NBA is in a frenzy right now with the recent news of a major trade.
It’s being reported that Clevland Cavs have traded their point guard Kyrie Irving for Bostom Celtics point, Isaiah Thomas.
Sources say that Thompson wanted to play in a situation where he can be more of a focal point of the franchise and that he no longer wants to play alongside & under the wing of LeBron James.
While the trade included Thomas, it also included getting Jae Crowder, Ante Zizic and a first-round draft pick which was initially given to the Nets.
Whats crazy is that the two team will face off for the first game of the NBA season in Cleveland on Oct. 17.
But aside from the NBA making this decision, Twitter users are reacting and they are going in.
Take a look at the tweets below and lets us know what your thoughts are!

The Cavs just traded Kyrie for a guy who played better than Kyrie last year, Crowder and a 1st rounder. LeBron might be the GOAT GM too.

Remember when we traded Bradley and everyone was like “Who’s going to guard Kyrie now?” Well we don’t have to worry about that anymore.
