KYRIE FOR KRISTAPS? WHO SAYS NO?

[I.AM.PIFF]

Plus combine Combine Melo
with another elite scorer would be

Melo is 33 and is already when it comes to athletic ability.

Kyrie (25) and Kristaps (22) are a much better timeline for the future. Only way NY trades for Kyrie is to pair him with Kris.

 

[I.AM.PIFF]

Love and Kris damn near the same player..

Not at all

Do you watch basketball or do you skim through it

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

But who is KRISTAPS?

Phil Jackson got bushed for even suggesting a trade and u think we gon do this?

 

[GetInTheTruck]

anyone with a spine and a cerebellum.

 

[Miles Davis]

Hell no

For the Knicks they'd just be giving up is some defense and shot blocking.

I'm deeply disturbed at how you just glossed over that like it's nothing important.

"ah you just losing your interior defender"

But who is KRISTAPS?

Cool, why should the Cavs want him if he's just a random big with "some defense and shot blocking"? What's in this for the Cavs?

 

[CEOHaize]

That would be a bad trade for the Knicks

I'm just saying that aspect of Kristaps game can be easily replaced in the NBA with a specialty type role player.

There are a lot of upcoming talented young players (and vets) who can bring that to the Knicks although they might not have kristAps offensive skill set and scoring ability.

@Floyd Pinkerton says neg, that's for sure.

 

[qnsfinest]

There's maybe 10 players I would trade KP for and kyrie ain't one of them

 

[Professor Emeritus]

It would actually be a great combo for LeBron, especially since Kristaps at the 5 is definitely where he belongs long term. Maybe he doesn't think Kristaps can defend.

Even if you could play Porzingis at the 5, that would leave the Cavs with a massive hole at PG. And TT getting $20 million a year to sit on the bench.


Unless...how do teams defend this?


PG: Lebron
SG: JR/Shump
SF: Porzingis
PF: Love
Center: TT




That would be like taking that weird positionless Nets team to the next level.

And with D-Rose and Porzingis there, you might actually have enough offense to let Lebron sit on the bench instead of running the 2nd unit.

He's called the unicorn for a reason breh. lets not act like a player with KP's talent is just hanging on trees to pick off these days
