Between pick equity and salaries that work, they do seem a logical fit if Masai follows his usual pattern of a big mid-season trade his first year. I wonder what the relationship between KD and Kyrie is these days.
The question I’d have is do you build something around FVV and picks or do you build it around 24 year old all-star Sengun while also sending Gafford with Kyrie? Sengun seems really unhappy in Houston.
I love Kyrie here, but job one for M&M is to find Cooper’s long term running mate. I’d love that to be someone like Harper or Edgecombe. I don’t love having to find that through the draft as it is never a sure thing. Sengun - who I also like - probably qualifies for that second star title, but is he the greatest fit? He’d be wonderful if you told me Morez and Cooper are both 38% three-point shooters and Larry is a serviceable starter. Short of that, we are still hurting for self-creation.
