Getting and keeping Kyrie is a final move a team makes to put you over the top when you already have a really good overall roster. But this team is far from that (last year's WCF run was a fluke based on probably the best shooting performances that the 3 and D role players will ever have in their playoff careers).
So it's almost like you're trying to build around a Luka/Kyrie duo from scratch with limited resources for the other roster spots and that can be very dangerous. That's just on the court and not factoring in Kyrie turning into a locker room problem.
I have no problem with Kyrie and I love his game. If this roster and team were at a different place, I'd love to keep him. But this isn't the right situation anymore...if we have a chance to start over and get things right, we need to do it. But of course, a Luka/Kyrie duo has been Cuban's dream so he will do whatever it takes to keep Kyrie.
