    Seriously, the timing of this is pure chaos!

    Definitely has to throw a wrinkle in free agency. Teams who think they’re in the mix for KD may stall on other signings while they see how the KD situation plays out.

    I mean even with us, if we think we’re back in the mix for Kyrie, that may influence what signings we’re targeting.

    it's our season on the line at this point.

    if we don't Kyrie, it's a bust, plus possibly just wasted Lebron's last year with us, and so on.

    I also think this helps us if we want Kyrie.

    Screw it I’m in on Russ for Kyrie if it doesn’t involve first round picks. Russ sucks, this season will be boring with him, at least Kyrie would make it entertaining and it’s just a one year experiment, I choose chaos.

    Phoenix though? Booker and who? What does Miami really have besides Butler? They can't have Bam due to the CBA.

    I'm not sure Phoenix will trade Booker for a 34 yo Durant.

    Heat doesn't have much a rebuilding franchise would want apart from Herro and Bam.

    Sounds like he’d be a good fit for us based on our recent roster construction trends!

    KD and Kyrie will end up with the Clippers for Kawhi and George.

    They can't have Bam, they already have Simmons. You can't have two rookie max players that weren't drafted by your team. Weird rule.

    I will say this.....I dont know too many teams that could offer a better package than:

    AD/RW and two future #1 picks for

    KD/Kyrie Irving

    Yes, you have to wait on the first rounders, and they could get as many as three for him....but who can offer someone as good as 29-year old Davis....

    Not going to happen, but seriously that trade is competitive....

    KD isn't playing with Lebron. Kyrie would though.
