The Utah pick intrigues me as it's a way for the Mavs to try and draft Bronny James. If we could get Sexton and Lebron this offseason we're cooking.
The problem is Kyrie plays 40 minutes a game in the playoffs, so you have 8 minutes where Sexton makes sense on the court.
It seems like there is thought that we can get a young score first guard (like Simons or Sexton) to boost the offense and eventually replace Kyrie. I don't think we should be trying to find a Kyrie replacement right now. I don't think we have the assets. When we do look for the Kyire replacement, I don't think it should be a smaller score first guard. In an ideal world it would be a two way wing. That gives us a lot more options to fill in the edges.
