Re: Grimes - He's a young guy who looked really good two years ago. Could he be so good that if Kyrie chooses to leave next summer (PO, right?), Grimes could be his replacement?

I doubt it, because they're different players. Grimes seems like the kind of player who could be a really good complement next to a Kyrie type... but not a direct replacement for a Kyrie type (i.e., someone who the burden of creation can be placed on). Grimes does has some ability to create though, as in, he's not a purely 3&D guy like Reggie Bullock.
