I would be shocked if that happened.   Brooklyn didn't really get a chance to see their big 3 play together on the court hardly at all this year and they were still a few plays away form possibly making the finals.

Plus, the whole KD and Kryie were a packaged deal and things would get extremely messy if they traded Kyrie without buy in from KD.  And he wouldn't give it now.   

Regardless what happens the rest of the year, the Nets are the substantial favorites to win the title next year imo.

I don't know if it will get messy trading Kyrie away. 

Kyrie is a headache. The amount of offcourt attention he brings can affect any team. Sure him and KD are friends, but I think KD would rather win than hangout (who knows though?). 

There is no doubt in my mind if BRK had a better bench this year KD would've led them to a chip. Imagine if they had 2 more high quality role players like a Danny Green/Nic Batum/Reggie Jackson/Bogdan Bogdanovic.  

Though I'm sure you can make the same argument that if Kyrie was healthy BRK would've won anyways, which may be true. Just if it were me, I'd trade Kyrie while he's coming off the best season of his career and be done with that headache.
