Barring that, trade the two of them for a kaboodle of starters and rotation players (Murray, Poeltl, and Vassell is still my pipe dream). We simply cannot keep KP. If Kidd's experiment in making KP look good has taught us anything, it's that 1) he doesn't fit with Luka, and 2) he's overpaid. And then there are the injury concerns. There are many options for how to re-do this team over the next two years. None of them involve retaining KP. Too big of a salary slot. Ideally, THJ goes too.
Based on your own estimation of KP value, why would Spurs give up that much for KP/Brunson? Personally I think KP has looked just fine this season. I don't agree with the second center to "protect" KP and honestly Luka has not been himself all season. If we can get value for him, I am all for it, but I don't see him getting much back in a trade right now, and dumping him to dump him does not really accomplish anything.
