Kyrie to Utah?

[kabenac]

They could just trade Teague to a another team.

They just signed Teague so I doubt they would do that. Plus I doubt they'd want to give up assets for Kyrie when they already have a halfway decent PG. But if they traded Teague and whatever else to Cleveland for Kyrie, sure - that could maybe be possible.

This offseason has been insane. I love it.

Ya it has been great.

They actually can't trade Teague until sometime in December. So that makes a deal with Minny much less likely.

Kyrie is only talked about cause he's LeBrons side piece. He's good but not amazing.

Offensively, I think he is pretty amazing. In fact, he's more skilled than LeBron offensively, just that LeBron has the incredible power and size.

Yeah, I dont see us getting Kyrie. He is a good player but might not be a good fit and probably does not want to be here long term. The Jazz are not going to risk losing him in 2 years.

I think the Jazz just need to be in position to facilitate trades as the 3rd partner or get Love. If they trade Kyrie and they think Lebron is gone they will just trade all of them and blow it up. Although maybe Kyrie is willing to stay if Lebron gets traded? Will the Cavs have the guts to trade Lebron?

The most likely destination for Kyrie might be Minny. Would T-wolves be willing to trade Wiggins for Kyrie? Who else has enough to get him? I am sure a bunch of teams really want him but do any have the assets to get him? Maybe a team like Phoenix might be willing to make a trade for him and take the risk of him leaving after 2 more years. Boston has the resources but I am guessing they wont go after him.

Kyrie would actually be an amazing fit on the Jazz, even playing with Rubio, heck ESPECIALLY playing with Rubio. You have another guard who will let you shoot, will feed you the ball, and take your defensive assignment? Kyrie would get all kinds of shots on the Jazz.

Would definitely cost us Mitchell though. If we could talk them into Exum and some picks instead, I'd do that in a heartbeat.

i am sure he wants to be the man. he already has a ring. probably no longer want to play under lebron's shadow

I don't blame him for this.

Kyrie to Utah!!!!!????

But where do he want to go? I miss the days when journalism and having editors was a real thing.

Clear path to the Finals for Traitor and the Leprechauns.

Cavs need to get in front of this and blow it up.

Trade Kyrie. Love and Lebron for picks and top young talents, trade JR & Thompson if anyone will take them, take on bad contracts for picks and tank the next 2 years.

I'm not sure Kyrie fits, although he would immediately fill the offensive hole Wayward left and even though he doesn't strictly fit our identity he does have Rudy MF Gobert at his back. But, if he doesn't really want to be here I wouldn't make a play and instead focus in on a K.Love.
