ROSTER TALK: Mavs favs for Vogel if no HC job exists. Kyrie handshake deal?

[cow]

7 In that context, he mentioned Kyrie (if, but only if, the price was dirt cheap). His "cheap enough" spitball was Dinwiddie + Bertans. [I dunno if that's cheap enough for me. Given Kyrie unreliability, I don't think you can include a player so vital as SD should Kyrie be sitting.]

I'd be all over this.  You just erased KP's contract a year ahead of it's schedule and after the season ends, save for a 2nd rounder, that nightmare would be behind us.  And maybe you could use Kyrie as a S&T next offseason?  I feel you about losing SD, but you can hopefully recruit Dragic.

Given our asset pool and the cost of all stars these days (Gobert), if the idea is to trade for a second star, they are going to come with warts.  I realize Kyrie has a ton but on the last year of his deal, he has every reason to be on his best behavior.
