I was right with you regarding the trade, but this deal is short enough to where it gives Kyrie an incentive to not give into his mercurial tendencies.
I think he'll all but decline the PO, which means this is a 2 year deal. I was expecting Kyrie to get 4/200 at the minimum and instead Kyrie is getting paid less than Fred VanVleet.
Mavs finally got their steal of a deal AND resigned a player of theirs (which based on last years summer was a big problem this FO had).
