With Kyrie at least you're able to account for fit and need. With Russ you're just throwing a wrench into the gears.


Reminder Spo wanted Westbrook badly


I'm sure. He looked at his rebounding rate for his position and probably started foaming at the mouth, gurgling "Positionleeeeeessssss.....!" as he passed out.

Klutch going to find a way to get Kyrie to LA for peanuts

Meanwhile Heat probably wouldn’t swap Lowry for Kyrie straight up

If Miami trades for either Don or Kev I will be surprised. The asking price for either is probably unrealistic. Gobert getting traded for 30 draft picks didn't help much.

Honestly, if they take Bam/Herro and it means we retain more picks and Yurt…

Lowry
Strus
Butler
Durant
Yurtseven

Is a pretty solid 5…just sayin’

Lakers are getting Kyrie and Curry or Harris for Westbrook accordingly to the article

Harris and Irving for Westbrook,THT, 2 1st matches up on checker.

Imagine doing that trade and then having to negotiate a buyout with WB. Would legit have scrub Bullfrog and 2 FRPs to show for it. Legit scenario though.

This off season is looking more and more like the Mo Harkless off season... By the time the Mo Harkless (3 or 4 days after ) was announced we were all so worn out that it was a sign of relief and even delusional optimism

Like ICC said, KD asking out phucked up everyone's plans. Wish he would have just kept his mouth shut and retired as a Net. But knowing KD, that wasn't going to happen.

If we trade Kyle Lowry and a 3rd rounder for Kyrie, I'd like Seth Curry included too.

Suns filling out their roster with minimum guys. Landale, Okogie, Lee…I think they feel confident they’ve got KD.

Suns signed 2 wings and traded for a center in the last 24 hours. KD and Kyrie to their requested teams is all but a formality now.

Now, can Miami get Utah's attention and do the unthinkable and land Mitchell?
