You mean, if they were to acquire a player I wouldn't be thrilled about, would I prefer to keep Kyrie? Yes, probably. But, Kyrie for an ADDED pick that results in Lendeborg, for example, would be much more exciting than taking him at 24 years old with #9. I could potentially be excited about that. You grab the best PG left at 9 (Brown or Flemings would be my hope) and then add a super long wing/forward on top of that. In that case, his age is a positive comparatively to Kyrie's. I might be doing some mental gymnastics to see it that way, but I do.
