TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[Mavs2021]

Well, at least there's some good news today.

I assume the Lakers are the only team that might be willing to give him an extension. LeBron has proven before that he can handle Irving.

Everybody else probably wants him as an expiring contract and dump $36M in bad salary on the Nets. I´d have no problem to take opted-in Irving for Dinwiddie/THJ straight-up. That´s also the kind of con artist move Cuban would pull, if the Brunson mess ends with him leaving. Only I am concerned Cuban would throw in two 1st round picks and a three year max extension for Irving.
