I actually think Kyrie will play at a higher level in two years then he will next year. Guys come back from that injury perfectly healthy, but they don't trust the knee. There are a lot of guys who talk about not really feeling right for a couple of months after coming back.
We are on the same page regarding as currently constructed, but what if they made a move in the neighborhood of Gafford plus assets for Derrick White? Does that move the needle for you from a contention standpoint?
I would be thrilled with that trade. I'm not sure it would be enough to make them contenders, but I would like to find out. But that's a lot of salary to add, and I don't know how you fill out the roster and avoid the super double secret repeater probation tax in 26/27. That's a problem for the next GM though, I think I would do it.
