To my way of thinking, the bad deal for AD is done, and it's a sunk cost now. Can't go back and remake it. And no wisdom in valuing AD by what you paid, rather than what he's really worth.
If we think he's valuable and is the best answer to make this team better, by all means keep him, but keeping him doesn't repair or undo or make better the Luka lunacy by NTI.
I think he has good value as a player, but his bad fit (in the context of the rest of the roster) makes his value much lower in Dallas. So I'd much rather change him into some other good value player or players while we can, and before we move down the road of remaking the roster (by getting rid of valuable players on well-priced contracts who want to be here) to make the fit better.
It was not about AD over KD as a player...but yes, probably AD is better than KD right now IMHO.
However i prefer AD because we can trade him higher than KD, the win now mode is done after Luka trade and Irving injury.
If that Harrison still wants to go on with that foolish plan to win next year then i agree with you, KD is a better fit that AD for this squad.
Unfortunately a hypothetical AD trade will always be compared to what we got for him so i don't think Harrison is so fool to trade him. No way.
