I don't think there's any trickery here. It is exactly what they said they wanted for years.
Oh yeah. Of course if they have a great season, then they won´t trade Kyrie.
What they define as success, is the big question.
If Kyrie has a great season, we could still be looking at a 5th-8th seed with a first round loss. Is that enough or do they adjust the timeline at that point?
Also if they wanted a 2nd star so desperately, they should have kept Brunson.
