OTOH, while I'd be very comfortable if they said no to a KD deal because of the massive salary and what it does to the team as a whole, is there anyone in this list that you really can't live without, if this could get you KD?
Klay, Gafford, Martin, Marshall, Powell, OMax, Hardy, 2025 1st, other draft capital?
First thought I'd give up all of them for KD but then I think about the supporting cast and I'm not so sure.
On one hand that would be one bitchin SL (Kyrie/Christie/KD/AD/DLive) with a decent supporting cast (Exum/Dinwiddie?/PJ/Edwards). We'd just need a backup center.
On the other hand, with KD, AD and DLive's injury histories, along with Kyrie and Exum normal absences, I'm not sure we'd make it to the POs.
Interesting thought.
