I've only read about half the responses, but I just don't get this take at all. You let your superstar entering-his-prime PG walk for nothing and then hope Tatum or Brown somehow turn out to be as good as Kyrie?
As far as AD goes - if the Rich Paul/Lakers thing never happened, we would all be peeing ourselves at the possibility of trading Tatum, matching contracts, and picks for him. Many of us still are!
This seems like a classic example of not seeing the forest for the trees. We are all so disgusted by what is happening in the here and now when we really only have like another 20 games (and the post-season) to get through before our team could truly transform.
By letting Rozier and Morris walk and trading Tatum and one of Brown/Smart for AD, we thin the herd quite a bit and hopefully solve some of the relationship issues on this team (young guys vs veterans, FAs looking for their own vs guys playing within the system, etc).
Our starting line-up would be Kyrie, Smart/JB, Hayward, Horford, and AD. Sorry, but I take that over the chance that Tatum/Brown somehow turn out to be as good as Kyrie/AD - especially when you get to keep one of them anyway! This all just sounds like a defeatist attitude to me. Don't worry guys, it will all be over soon!
