When it was revealed last week that Kyrie Irving handed in a trade request, it most likely began what must have been an onslaught of phone calls for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Irving is one of the most talented point guards in the NBA today, so there is bound to be a lot of teams interested in his services. However, he still has two years remaining on his current deal with the Cavaliers, so they don't have to trade him away if they don't want to.

To make negotiations smoother if Cleveland does decide to trade the 25-year-old away, a report has emerged revealing what the team wants in return for the four-time NBA All-Star.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Cavaliers are looking for a deal that is similar to that of the 2011 Denver Nuggets-New York Knicks deal for Carmelo Anthony, meaning they want young players, win-now veterans and draft picks.

However, according to the same reports, most teams that would be the most well suited for Irving are using the Minnesota Timberwolves-Chicago Bulls deal for Jimmy Butler as the basis for their trade offers, which is a scaled-down model of Melo's rich return of assets.

Irving has indicated his teams of choice to be traded to are the San Antonio Spurs, Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves, and the New York Knicks, with the latter looking to be the favorites to sign the point guard as it would mean he would be returning to where he grew up.

Would the Knicks be able to meet the Cavaliers demand of a similar style trade that they put together that saw Anthony come to them from the Nuggets in 2011? Probably not.

They won't be willing to give up Kristaps Porzingis to Cleveland as he is more valuable to them, and although the Cavaliers was mentioned as a likely landing spot, Melo seems more than likely to the Houston Rockets if he is to waive his no-trade clause.

According to the report, six teams have made offers for Irving, with the Knicks being one of those teams. The Spurs, Heat, and Timberwolves have given offers as well, so there is healthy competition for his signature, but no one as of yet has met the Cavaliers' demand for their point guard of a 2011 Denver Nuggets-New York Knicks trade for Carmelo Anthony style deal.
