Coming off another NBA Finals loss to the Golden State Warriors, the Cleveland Cavaliers’ off-season continues to be a train wreck. Not only are rumors swirling that LeBron may want to leave after his contract expires after the 2018 season, but Kyrie Irving allegedly wants out now. The icing on the cake? Video that has surfaced online that appears to show Irving and Warriors rival Steph Curry making fun of ‘The King.’

Don’t quite get it? Watch this video.
The video was reportedly taken at Harrison Barnes’ wedding. The outrageous pantomiming appears awfully close to be a tease at one of LeBron’s recent workout posts on social. It has to be a slap in the face that LeBron’s own teammate is egging Curry on.
So now where will this new development lead? Could it be likely that this video means nothing? Of course. It’s just as possible that it means everything.
