Not for KP of course, but THJ+Powell+Picks? Kyrie radically transforms this team, when he isn't going AWOL. Only has 1 more year left so we don't even have to fully commit to him if he's bat shit crazy.
I mentioned last week but how about a three team trade with Kyrie, Ben Simmons and Dallas? I would put the odds somewhere close to 0 and Dallas probably doesn't have the assets anyway. But I remember prior to the start of the season, Zach Lowe was saying if the Nets moved Kyrie they would probably lean to the glue guy types vs the third star. He was adamant though that he did not expect them to move Kyrie though.
So could something work out where the Nets got Bullock, DFS, Maxi (maybe two of the three) plus salary and maybe a pick? Philly gets Kyrie. I think that would be the classic Philly move. Get the highest rated player out there. Philly then looks ready to role with Kyrie playing the Harden role but with one of the top two centers in the league. Dallas gets Ben Simmons.
Again, I would put the odds at 0 percent, but just something that stuck with me.
