Was LeBron James okay with Kyrie Irving being traded to the Boston Celtics? Despite some words from former Cleveland Cavaliers coach at the time Ty Lue, former Celtics floor general Jeff Teague has some doubts about whether James actually minded all that much when Irving forced his way to the Celtics.

The trade, which sent back injured Boston point guard Isaiah Thomas, has turned out to be among the least popular in team history in retrospect, and ended the Cavs dominance in the East as well. But on a recent episode of his “Club 520” podcast, Teague broke down why he is not buying that LeBron was at all upset about the end of that relationship on the court.
