I was so against bringing or having Kyrie here. But he's won me over this season. I wouldn't trade him during the season.
We let Brunson go. Sending Kyrie on his way would deprive the team of what Brunson provided in the 2022 playoffs and what Kyrie can provide now. We'd just have to find another top tier scorer/creator so that Luka doesn't have to be the sole scorer/creator.
I'm up for rolling with this for this season: Luka, Kyrie, Exum, DJJ, Lively
Seems like Timmy and maybe Grant are fairly important for this season, but I'd trade them if it was an obvious upgrade.
I don't think I'd trade O-Max because I want to see what he can become, and he wouldn't bring much back anyway.
Essentially, I think the team is good enough this season that I don't want trades that torpedo the season. The starting 5 above, with our depth, gives this Mavs team a chance at long playoff run, imho.
