Last night, Stephen A. Smith reported Lebron James would be "tempted to beat Kyrie Irving's ass" if he ran into his trade requesting teammate.
Another report in Cleveland.com said James is "eager" to have the Cavs fulfill Irving's wishes and deal him so the team can move on.

James has spent the morning debunking these rumors on Twitter.

LBJ is extremely unhappy with Kyrie's trade request.

Are you buying Lebron's denials?
Given Irving "blindsided" James and the rest of the organization with the trade request, we'd imagine James would be pretty pissed.
