I'm the one who originally broke the Burt news. :lol: Found it on the Knicks board and figured I'd pass it along. Those weekend at Bernie gifs are hysterical.

Kyrie will be a Sun
it will cost Bledsoe, Dudley or Chandler and possibly Chriss or the Heat pick and the Toronto pick

the Suns will take on Kyrie, Shumpert and if the number match, Frye

I might be giving the Cavs too much -- but that's my prediction

I think it'll be Bled, Chriss, Dudley, and pick for Irving/Shump and whoever else if it's needed. I don't think we give up chandler. will be a shame to see chriss go, but if you still have Jackson, Warren, Bender, Booker, and Ullis with Irving holy moly that's a fun young team.

what an exciting time, even if nothing happens the talk will always be intriguing. imagine what playing cleveland would be like if we had Irving. maybe we'd even get on national television again for once :D

too bad...unless there's some kind of cross-connectivity between Instagram and Snapchat, I don't think McD can like Booker's video which might make him sad

Everyone willing to just throw Chriss into a deal for Kyrie because he had a bad summer league baffle me. You all act like Kyrie is the 2nd coming again he is talented and is one of the best scorers of the basketball in the NBA, he is also one of the worst defenders of the basketball in the NBA and seems to have little to no care in making others around him better. I just don't see the fit with Booker it doesnt make sense. The Warriors do what they do because they all play selfless basketball and they all play D. Would I be willing to take a chance it works and trade Bled, Duds, and Miami 1st yes but thats it, and that is more than likely better than any offer they are going to get, unless they basically tell LeBron screw you and go all in on a rebuild knowing James is leaving and take back a bunch of young prospects and picks.

Reading Haberstroh and Lowe - they kind of give inklings of what a deal would be. Not like Broussard and Windhorst

Cavs want veterans, young players, maybe a pick and possibly cap relief to save Gilbert a boat load of cash

Suns can give two veterans like Bledsoe and Dudley or Chandler
They can take on Shumpert and or Frye - if they take both that gets trickier, but for sure can do say one of those and Jefferson
If they so choose, can give both the Heat pick - -and say the Raptors second round pick
finally - a young guy like Chriss - in lieu of the Heat pick

The Suns "check" a lot of boxes

So its all conjecture on my part but unless the TWolves bring Wiggins/ Teague on Dec 15 2017 - this might be a very good deal for the Cavs

I probably am overpaying by giving Chriss - the Heat pick and Toronto pick should suffice

You have to give them something to make them accept the deal. You can't offer a downgrade at PG plus a bunch of scraps and expect them to take it.

-If the Kyrie experiment doesn't work out, we can probably flip him end of season and recover a package similar to what we paid.

-If Kyrie walks and leaves us high and dry after two seasons, we will have cap space.

-We avoid another Rich Paul negotiation.

-If Booker becomes the legit allstar we all think he will be, we WILL have a top 5 backcourt - GSW/WAS/HOU/POR/PHX

-TJ and JJ could make a VERY low maintenance 3rd and 4th option.

-If we keep Bender/Chriss/our 2018 pick and one of the Miami picks, we can make a godfather offer for another young star should the situation arise. KP ain't going anywhere, but imagine the next name that pops up. I'm thinking Chriss/Bender/2 picks for a 4/5 style guy.

Kyrie/Ulis
Booker
Jackson
TJ
Insert STAR here (via trade, via free agency, or if Bender Chriss develop)

That's easily 100 points a night from our top 6 guys.

I hope your right, but I don't see them giving us Kyrie without Josh Jackson. Which means the deal is prob dead.
