With Cooper we have someone that may make Luka want to return to Dallas in order to win a ring once Kyrie is gone. I can only hope that is the case.
Starters: Cooper, AD, Kyrie*, Lively, & Klay
Bench, PJ, Naji, Gafford, Max, & Brandon
fill in the blank __________ for who we get in trade or draft picks we can still try to obtain to play for Kyrie
*INJURED
Obvious trade bait useful for getting other assets: Powell, Omax, Martin, Hardy, & possibly S&T opportunities with Exum and Dinwiddie.
Guys we can resign if still needed: Kai Jones, Moses Brown, and Kessler Edwards
Every year we make our lists of options and every year the MBT does something out of left field nobody thinks is possible. I see a lot of great ideas and targets being listed but in all that wishing we need to keep our top 10 guys and use the left overs to trade off guys that we might be lucky to find a buyer for. If we can find takers for them then we can acquire usable assets whether those assets are picks to use in the draft or guys that can fill an area of need.
Some of the bench guys may be useful if a difference maker comes back in trade.
Boston has a need to drop salary so lets definitely see what we can do to take advantage of that. Similar situations may exist with teams that are deciding to blow things up like Milwaukee.
Lets try to find solutions to our Kyrie problem without involving a trade that might empower LA or any other team that is possibly a contender.
