    Yup. Gordon is worse at being available than AD. Heild sucks on defense and makes near max money to boot. No bueno.

    That plan B is just really terrible unless more players would be involved

    Rob has to get more creative, we’ve been hearing Hield and Gordon connected to to the Lakers for years. What is this obsession with Hield? There’s lots of pretty good players being traded for very little out there.

    Sigh. Just make the trade for Irving.

    I don’t think Rob and Kurt are good enough to get us a deal that doesn’t involve a bit of an overpay.

    But I’ve slowly talked myself into Irving + Harris + AD + LeBron + whoever else starting lineup with a bunch of youth and athleticism coming off the bench.

    We will have to deal with the off the court stuff with Kyrie but I suppose that may be better than dealing with the on the court issues with Russ.

    All I could think of, but you're right, there are other players

    The difference is Mitch didn't have a Hinrich poster in his room. I think Buddy needs to file a restraining order against Rob at this point.

    It's the one trade that instantly turns us into a contender again, and it's not even close. No other trade that is even remotely possible can get us back contending. This is clear.

    Just because Kyrie is a top5/top10 talent in the NBA, except he's bat**** crazy as well, so no other team wants to deal with that baggage.

    Of course he is. Lol. At this rate Rob and Kurt are probably throwing in everything we’ve got to offer.

    We keep seeing info leak out.

    I swear Morey or Presti would hunt a third team down and make this happen.

    Guess we will see if Rob does...

    would hate to give up reaves in the kyrie trade, but if the backup plan is eric gordon or buddy hield, i guess i'm fine with it
