The Kryie thing is so hard for me. He was really fun to watch with the Mavs, even if the team sucked. I fear if we lose him, it is just a matter of time before Luka leaves. Although everything in my body is telling me, I will regret mightily if we resign him to a max/near max deal...which will also end up with Luka leaving.
But I hate seeing the Lakers get him. Sure, Lebron could lose it anytime soon, but that team looks really good if you add Kyrie to the team. Plus, you know the Mavs will find a way to end up less in return.
So, I guess what I think is even though I am feeling otherwise, this front office went all in with Kyrie. Being unable to resign him would make me want to get rid of the front office (BTW, I generally like Nico. I heard him interviewed after the lottery and thought he came across well, but that is not the determining factor of his role). So, as of now, I guess I prefer to resign him. Although every time I hear him talk, I go a little bit the other way. I want people surrounding Luka who are all about trying to win a championship. The last 4-5 this has not been a strong point for Kyrie.
