Sorry, @Dan, if my question offended you. I even said I hadn’t been following the discussion very closely. In the future, I’ll just keep my beak out of the discussion unless I’m better informed. I haven’t had the time to keep up with these super threads lately, unfortunately.
I know you said this already (that he’s staying), but I don’t think these hypotheticals really matter, anyway. There isn’t a shred of doubt in my mind that the basic framework of a new contract for Irving to re-sign in Dallas wasn’t already tactfully set in place before the deal went down. I said as much before and immediately after the trade happened.
But, it’s still fun to imagine the possibilities, so thanks for taking the time to lay them out!
Totally agree. They went all in on Kyrie, and even Cuban wouldn’t have done that if he weren’t sure he wanted to invest in the next contract.
