Tristan Thompson to Cavs: Khloe Kardashian Will Dump Me If I Get Traded!
It’s been two months since Tristan Thompson was caught cheating on Khloe Kardashian, and yet somehow, the Cleveland Cavaliers forward remains un-dumped.
Sources say Khloe and Tristan are trying to make their relationship work, and they’ve both been making sacrifices.
Hell, Khloe is so committed to making this relationship work that she relocated to Cleveland.
No offense, Cleveland, but you know damn well the shores of Lake Erie have nothing on sunny southern California.
Anyway, C-town is one thing, but would Khloe be willing to relocate to Indiana? Milwaukee? Oklahoma City? Utah?!
We may be soon to find out.
If you’re a basketball fan, then you’re probably aware that the Cavs need to do some restructuring this season in order to assemble a roster of players who are able to remember what the freakin’ score is in the last seconds of a finals game.
That could be bad news for Tristan, who’s reportedly terrified of being traded.
“Tristan going to be in many draft day discussions and could be moving to a new team and he is dreading it,” a source tells Hollywood Life.
He doesn’t have a no trade clause so he can go anywhere and if he heads to a new city it would be a sore thumb for his relationship with Khloe,” the insider adds.
They would have to worry about moving all summer instead of enjoying the summer.”
We’re not sure this person understands how the “sore thumb” idiom works, but that’s neither here nor there.
It seems weird that Khloe would happily uproot her life and give birth to her first child in Cleveland, but she draws the line at moving a second time.
Like, that’s the deal-breaker? Really?!
It’s not the fact that Tristan was banging strippers while Khloe was eight months pregnant with his kid?!
Because we would think that that edges out moving to Minnesota on the terribleness index.
Not by a lot, mind you, but at least by a point or two.
We swear it wasn’t our goal to piss off the entire Midwest with this article.

LeBron James: The Cavs Are Losing Because of Khloe Kardashian!
Watching the Golden State Warriors is like watching someone play a video game on cheat mode.
The team has been so consistently dominant for so long that one hopes the rest of the NBA enjoys taking on a submissive role in the relationship.
Unfortunately for Steph Curry and company, LeBron James isn’t eager to roll over and play dead.
Sure, the rest of the Cavs might be, but King James wants to bring another title back to the Land, and he’ll do whatever it takes to bring his team back from its 3-0 deficit in the NBA finals — even if it means indulging in some old-fashioned superstition.
If you’re a sports fan, there’s a good chance you’re already familiar with the so-called “Kardashian Kurse.”
It’s based on the idea that athletes who date members of the Kardashian clan are more prone to, um … performance issues, and may even bring their entire team down as a result of their relationship.
Now, Khloe Kardashian has been dating Tristan Thompson all season, and his team made it all the way to the finals, so we think t would be safe to say his teammates don’t buy into such nonsense.
But there are those who say LeBron James is a believer in the curse, and that he feels Thompson’s relationship has been bad for the team.
“Cavaliers players are paranoid right now and fear the Kardashian curse might be a very real thing as they face a finals sweep by the Warriors,” one insider tells Hollywood Life.
“LeBron and the rest of the players can’t help but think that Tristan brought Khloe along with bad luck to the Cleveland team.”
According to the insider, LeBron and the Cavs are grasping at straws to try and figure out their lack of success against the Warriors, and they keep coming back to the Khloe explanation,
“Professional athletes are very superstitious and so they are looking for any explanation, logical or illogical, to explain their bad luck against the Warriors,” says the source.
“Rumblings in the locker room, behind Tristan’s back, are that the Cavs will not win another championship as long as a Kardashian is dating a teammate and going to games at the arena. They want her gone.”
If there’s any truth to this report, those “rumblings” must come as quite a slap in the face to Khloe, who has stood by Thompson’s side despite revelations that he cheated on her while she was pregnant with his child.
Khloe has been in attendance at Cavs games and has remained in Cleveland in the months since she welcomed her first child.
It remains unclear what the future holds for Khloe and Tristan, but insiders say the couple is intent on working things out.
But first, Tristan and his team have to attempt to defy impossible odds and come back against a team that’s been described as the most dominant in NBA history.
Here’s hoping Tristan doesn’t secure his place as the world’s most egregious d-bag by breaking up with the mother of his child over a stupid superstition.

Tristan Thompson: The REAL Reason He"s Been Benched by the Cavs!
FACT: Tristan Thompson cheated on Khloe Kardashian will multiple women.
FACT: Tristan Thompson did not play any meaningful minutes for the Cleveland Cavaliers in their first two playoff games since news of this scandal broke.
RUMOR: Fact number-two is a direct result of fact number-one.
You’ve likely read this rumor all over the Internet, haven’t you?
Multiple celebrity gossip websites out there are trying to allege that Cleveland Head Coach Tyronn Lue has determined that either:
1. Thompson has become so much of a distraction, due to his off-the-court behavior, that he would negatively effect the team on the court.
2. Thompson does not deserve to see any playing time as punishment for stepping out on at least two occasions on his baby mama.
But are either of these statements true?
Would LeBron James actually risk a shot at his fourth NBA title because a teammate slept with a few Instagram models?
The truth is that Thompson only averaged 20.2 minutes per game this season, about seven-and-a-half minutes fewer per game than his career average.
He lost his spot in the starting lineup before the opening game even tipped off, as Coach Lue decided to start Kevin Love at center in order to optimize the offensive spacing on the court.
Thompson never seemed to recover from the slight.
He averaged a career-low 5.8 points per game in 2017-2018 and essentially tied for a career low by only averaging 6.6 rebounds per game.
Moreover, Cleveland made-over its roster almost entirely at the February trade deadline, acquiring four new players, including Larry Nance Jr.
Nance is a younger and more athletic version of Thompson, playing basically the same position, but doing so with more energy and with a higher shot-blocking rate.
In other words:
Thompson saw his minutes decline throughout the season, and then saw them take a precipitous drop once Nance Jr. joined the team.
The power forward only played 15 combined minutes in the third-to-last and second-to-last games of the season, prior to racking up nearly 30 minutes in the final regular season contest…
… only to end the game with plus/minus of -24. Against the awful New York Knicks, no less!
Thompson is simply an anachronistic basketball player.
Yes, he signed a five-year, $ 82 million contract as recently as 2015, but the league since then has emphasized three-point shooting and spacing on offense.
Thompson plays for a team that employs arguably the best driver and best passer in basketball.
Someone who cannot shoot from outside three feet simply clogs the lane for James, who is at his most unstoppable when his squad spreads the floor and gives him many options to whom he can pass.
The game has mostly passed Thompson by.
This may explain why he didn’t care about partying all night in early April with some random side piece, allegedly taking her back to his hotel room very early in the morning to have unprotected sex.
If he’s not gonna see any action between the lines that week, why not stay awake for awhile and see some action between the sheets, right?
With the Cavs playing the Pacers, who start Myles Turner at center, we doubt we’ll see much of Thompson at all this series.
Turner shot over 35% from three-point range this season and would drag Thompson away from the basket, mitigating Tristan’s one supposed skill: rebounding.
And if Thompson isn’t camped out under the basket boxing out opposing players, there’s really no point in having him on the court.
In closing, Tristan Thompson may be riding two to five side pieces these days, but that’s not why he’s riding the pine for Cleveland.
He simply isn’t very good at modern NBA basketball

Tristan Thompson, Cavs Suffer Humiliating Playoff Upset
If Tristan Thompson was hoping to find solace from his personal life in his professional life, well…
… he’ll need to hope that things turn around quickly for he and his basketball team.
On Sunday afternoon, in front of a sold out arena in Cleveland and millions of people watching across the country, Thompson’s Cavs were thumped by the Indiana Pacers in Game One of their Eastern Conference playoff matchup.
The final score was 98-80, as LeBron James suffered his first-ever career loss in a first round opener.
As Thompson himself?
Did he at least acquit himself well on the court, following a week in which he made news off of it for multiple alleged affairs behind the back (and pregnant belly) of Khloe Kardashian?
Not at all.
Thompson only played the final two minutes of the game, after the outcome was very much decided… and he did not score a single point.
Afterwards, no one on the team blamed Thompson or his wandering penis for serving as a distraction in the days leading up to the big game.
James said he’s been down three games to one in the NBA Finals and gone on to win the title, so he isn’t concerned here about the big picture.
But it’s hard not to wonder what the team talked about in the locker room and whether or not Thompson’s unethical actions played any role at all in the team underperforming to such a significant level.
To be clear, though:
Tristan wasn’t benched for cheating on Kardashian, considering he continually lost minutes to Larry Nance Jr. and Jeff Green as the season ticked down.
He simply can’t spread the floor for Cleveland in the same way he spread the legs of numerous women over the past few months while Khloe sat at home waiting to birth his daughter.
It’s just not a great time to be Tristan Thompson right now.
News of Thompson’s infidelity went viral late last week, just a day before Khloe welcomed a baby girl into the world.
Sources have confirmed that Thompson was in the room for the delivery, but Kardashian is expected to fly back to Los Angeles once she feels up for it and raise the baby far away from her father.
This is what sister Kim is reportedly encouraging her sibling to do.
Could anyone blame Khloe for listening and agreeing to this advice?
Thus far, however, neither Khloe nor Tristan has actually commented on this scandal.
No matter what you think of Thompson’s behavior, it is important to remember that a small human being is now in the picture.
Even if Khloe no longer wants to romance Tristan, she’ll need to work something out with him for the sake of her child.
In the meantime, the Cavs take on the Pacers in Game 2 this Wednesday night.
Will things finally turn around at all for the flailing power forward?
