Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[SleepingHero]

Mavs without Luka against Celtics would have got... what's the term?.... bum rushed? 

Look, everyone and their grandmother knows that Kyrie is magician on offense. There is very few people who are better than him, on offense. I prefer to think about these much more important things if Dejounte is able to give me 80-90% of what Kyrie does on offense... namely... younger, taller, faster, longer, quicker, better defense, much better contract. 

How can you ignore all these things??

This is why I always say, real Mavericks fans seems to deserve their owner, Mark Cuban. I see so many similarities between the two.

I'm not ignoring it. I'm questioning the validity of this 80-90% figure. Murray has never been on the same level as kyrie at any point in his career. 8x all star vs 1x all star. 

Kyrie at Murray's age was an All NBA caliber dude, Murray isn't even close. 

Kyrie's contract for his production is one of the best values in the league. The only thing Murray has over Kyrie is age.

You also are seemingly choosing to ignore the fact that Murray is not happy being number 2 to Trae in Atlanta at all. He's been complaining about touches and his role all year. Atlanta has been trying to trade him for the last 1 1/2 seasons. What makes you think he'll magically love being number 2 to Luka with probably less touches since he's a worse basketball player than Kyrie?

Further, since you're such a big Luka fan, why are you trying to trade someone that Luka loves having on the team?
