No way Boston would bite on your deal, Brent.
Kyrie is a gifted iso player who vanishes on defense and is only a middling at everything else point guards are supposed to do: make plays for teammates, assists, etc.
Boston already has a point guard that vanishes on defense. Smart and Crowder are strong defensive assets, which they need to compensate for their point guard. Trading all three for Irving would send Boston tumbling backward. Boston’s front office and coaching staff are smart enough to know it, too, unlike the front offices and coaching staffs of some other teams I could mention.
That just isn’t going to happen.
