The Rockets don’t have a pick in this draft.
The Heat (13) are all-in on Giannis at the moment, and that saga never ends.
Hawks (8/23) are giving up #8 for Kyrie without seeing him on the floor in 18 months? #23 isn’t even worth talking about.
The trade deadline is when the Kyrie trade talk should heat up………
Isn't that what I said. We are focusing on teams with picks. That's not realistic because most teams with picks have no need for Kyrie. If you want to turn Kyrie into future assets there are three three options. Wait for the deadline, consider packages that don't include a 2026 pick or trade him for a package that many of this board would hate (late first and/or eating bad salary).
Tough decision. We tend to assume that Kyrie returns and recovers some of his value. Could also turn into a Lillard (thankfully his contract isn't as bad) situation and tank his value even further. Lots of variables that could impact the decision and for the most part we don't have the relevant information. Can only hope that the new front office is going to make the right call.
