Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[omahen]

What are your thoughts on the suggested 3 way a few weeks ago where Kyrie goes to LA and Murray comes here?  He is not as good as Kyrie, but he is younger, healthier, and has a history of playing defense before Atlanta.  That would allow us more patience in the team building process.

I think Murray is a very good player and could fit next to Luka. However, a couple of things about that. 

I think Kyrie is a better player and Mavs should be compensated in addition to just getting Murray. But, LA doesn't have the assets to get Murray on his own. Perhaps in the summer, when they can offer 2 picks (2029 and 2031).

Murrays rumored biggest issue in Atlanta was that he wasn't the PG. He would have same problem in Dallas.
