Like if the option is no Kyrie but Ayton +Stuff vs. Kyrie on a max and merry minimums that we hope can exceed their contract value I choose option A.
Not excited about the Kyrie trade or his incoming max, and I’m on the record (belligerently) about both. But, if given the choice between him and Ayton, give me Kyrie 20/20 times, even with the age and possibility for off-court drama.
I wouldn’t want Ayton as anything more than a sub-MLE backup big. He’s just not very good. The evidence is right there, anytime we watch the Suns play, it’s just that people are stubbornly holding onto his name value because he was a #1 pick.
Just my opinion, of course.
