This is an interesting point. And I hadn’t actually thought about it, I’ve kind of been drinking along with watching soccer. Even if we didn’t love brown, just swapping him for Durant Would seem to be a pretty good set up for both teams. Durant Is a hell of a lot better than Paul George.
Too late now, that upgrade made sense. Literally the corpse of Paul George, 2 first rounds and 2 second rounds. That's reasonable I thought, not like the crazy 4 picks and haul of players Giannis got.
FVV + DFS + Capela + PHX 2027 FRP (top 5 protected) for Irving + Lively If Lively were available more / less injured, I doubt he would be available. But Mavs just traded for Aldama ssssooooooo....
I need to stop thinking about this, because I’m seriously about to crash out Paul George is only a year younger than KD and makes more money while being a worse player…if Celtics were willing to take that for Jaylen Brown, they would’ve taken KD
Surprised that KD has not asked to be traded yet. Maybe a mid season request when we are below 500. Keep Burning KD!
Kyrie has always seemed a lil too cray cray to me... but as long as its a reasonable deal, i'd be for trying to do something in the KD window... Kyrie and FVV are both coming off of significant injuries... FVV is expiring and Kyrie has another year.... Kyrie is 34 and Fred is 32... If mavs are figuring that they're still another year out from contending, itd make sense... FVV and DFS work for salaries - and both could be off the books at the end of the year... If a frp got it done... i'd pull the trigger...
Kyrie the theoretical basketball player is kind of a perfect fit if we are truly running it back with KD and Sengun which it looks like we are. Of course Kyrie in actuality is about as reliable as Christmas bonuses. Sometimes you get enough to put in a pool. Sometimes you get enrolled in the “Jelly of the Month” club.
If the sixers got Jaylen Brown for PG, then it lets you know that A) The front office has no intentions of trading KD. B) They are content with these young guys or tanking in a few years.
