Ky is 25 ppg, proven 2nd option on a championship team all at 24 years old.
And he's signed for 3 more years.
The 70 point game was cool but I need a proven commodity. Not potential.
If you're giving me guys w/ potential, then I need booker chriss & JJ.

Add to that Myrie too averaged 22 in his second year on a bad team. Except he was better than Booker and more efficient.
We gotta temper expectations on Booker

only valid answers are lebatard or bomani
the point was even a homer pushed it.. not the validity of it.. homers will always skew things to there teams, he threw out that same trade (i think it was one of the celtics picks though, a 1st just not the lakers or nets picks)

I think the main question though is does a booker + fillers for kyrie make the suns better?

I personally wouldn't trade Booker. I'd give up everyone else but I'd rather pair the two. You gain a better player but your still not gaining ground in the west with one all star in Phoenix

Crazy that Kyrie and Isaiah were the first and last picks in the same draft.

I would do IT/Crowder/BOS 2018 or something like that, but that's about it. I don't think Kyrie is substantially better than IT whatsoever. We'd basically be doing it in order to get a few years younger at the position without getting worse.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have actively shopped All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving ever since he went to ownership requesting a trade. And according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, 20 teams have reached out to Cleveland to gauge interest in landing the 25-year-old guard.
Of those teams, six made trade offers, according to ESPN: the San Antonio Spurs, LA Clippers, Phoenix Suns, Minnesota Timberwolves, New York Knicks, and Miami Heat. The others either don’t have enough assets to make a legitimate offer or “loom in the shadows” throughout the deal-making process.
Had to be low-ball offers.

I thought it was a sign and trade with Phoenix when he was a restricted free agent or something like that.
Edit: Yeah it was a sign and trade

If I'm Phoenix, I'm building around a Booker/Jackson core. They complement each other very nicely. Everyone else would be expendable though.
Would Cleveland accept Bledsoe, Warren and a protected first for Kyrie?

I would.
They probably would not. Gilbert is in some fantasy land where he thinks he can get a kings ransom. (no pun intended)

Isaiah put up 20 a game in Sacramento. The Kings' return was Alex Oriakhi, who never stepped foot on an NBA floor and is currently playing in Puerto Rico.

@nelson999 couldn't wait to get rid of him. Said he's a 6th man at best. Meanwhile Cousins continued to lead them to 30 win seasons.

We still got NTers who still think he's a 6th man after averaging 29 on the second best team in the East.
