Kyrie Irving ready to leave turbulent times in Brooklyn behind and focus on future in Dallas
Briefly

"I don't want to get too deep into it because I love protecting the people that I'm in business with, even if it doesn't work out. Again, I wish all those guys well, but conversations that needed to be had weren't had before the trade deadline and I don't know if anything needed to be salvaged, I just think it was time to get my own peace of mind and go somewhere where I was able to thrive."
"Being in a situation where I didn't have to worry about kind of behind-the-back talk or the media talk, or not knowing how to handle real-life circumstances that has nothing to do with the game of basketball. Has everything to do with how you handle someone as a person and while I was here I learned a lot of lessons, but I've made my peace again, like I said, and I just want to move forward."
