Listen, Kyrie is not nearly as "great" a player as you think he is.
Matter fact Westbrook is superior to that guy in EVERY way...but guess what?
They both have the same mentality and I would say Kyrie is even way more problematic.
Kyrie needs to go period...and you guys sure know how to show your age.
I guess you can go cry to the mods for an ignore button cause you can't deal with the real.
I'll ignore the age comment - that is asinine.
It is also not really worth debating this with people like you, but as has been said a million times:
1) Why in the world would AD choose to stay here if there wasn't another high level star on the roster? We have one year to impress him and he is going to want concrete proof that we are contenders.
2) Why in the world would you let a high level star in his prime walk for nothing? The only way you will be able to replace Kyrie is with a vet minimum contract. Even if you hate him, you should still want us to sign him and then trade him next off-season for a substantial return.
Guys like me that only want the best cohesive unit on the floor with the aggressive "playing for each other" attitude last years team had. They will NEVER have that with Kyrie suited up.
If you think i'm somehow Anti-Celtic while you guys decisions are golden is beyond me.
If we sign him to trade...HE WILL HAVE TO PLAY...and the season is already lost no matter how many circus shots for the great Kyrie he will have.
We are over the cap and everyone knows it so how are you gonna pay all these guys?
And i'm telling yall...trading Tatum is gonna break yalls heart a few years from now.
Oh, and if Davis can't see he's the missing piece for this team, and that it's better for us to keep our assets around him, or that Kyrie isn't good for his game...
Then he's just not the guy and there's plenty talent always coming through the NBA. I don't know why yall act so desperate.
Probably because yall know deep down Danny is a horrible talent evaluator.
