Phoenix offered Chris Paul and Jae Crowder plus “unspecified picks” for Kyrie per @Chris Haynes.

I think you have to be willing to take a major risk at some point if you ever hope to win a championship. You don’t win titles by accident.

I’m legitimately stunned the Lakers didn’t pull the trigger on Kyrie.

Though Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving are both ball dominant, Mavs have optimism they’ll co-exist well. Luka & Kyrie respect each other. They can both play together & have staggered minutes. Luka has more help. Kyrie played well with two other ball-dominant stars (LeBron, Durant). – 5:27 PM

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant went to the Nets nearly 3-1/2 years ago.
They played 74 regular-season games together.
KD’s Achilles rehab year, Kyrie’s vax decision, injuries, leaves of absence, the suspension … 74 games together. Not even a full season. – 4:25 PM
Anthony Puccio @APOOCH
Mavericks suddenly have the best backcourt duo in the NBA + Kyrie plays for childhood hero, Jason Kidd.
Another scenario that can pay off tremendously or become an off-season disaster if they don’t win the chip. – 4:23 PM
Michael Dugat @mdug
To be clear, I understand how good Kyrie can be and how fun he can be to watch, but to pretend the rest of what comes w/ him just vanishes because it would be convenient isn’t reality.
I also understand some people don’t care about that.
Hope it works out as well as possible – 4:23 PM

Kyrie Irving played 143 of a possible 278 regular season games during his Brooklyn Nets tenure. Barely half.
KD and Kyrie played together in 74 of a possible 206 games after KD returned from his Achilles injury.
KD-Kyrie-Harden played 10 games.
KD-Kyrie-Simmons played 24. – 4:19 PM
Erik Slater @erikslater_
Kyrie Irving had zero value over the summer. Brooklyn then had to suspend him early in the year.
He raised his value with an incredible 2-month stretch. Nets then played several desperate teams against each other to recoup assets.
I’d think they’re very happy with this outcome. – 4:19 PM

I would have been very surprised, based on what I was hearing in the last few days, if Kyrie ended up in Miami. The Heat will continue to see what they can do with some of their other contracts ahead of the deadline. A 1st-rd pick could be on the table, depending on the player. – 4:18 PM

Kyrie has had some really incredible quotes – but is his finest work!

Michael Dugat @mdug
Keeping it to basketball, which isn’t really the full picture with Kyrie, my guess is there will be a honeymoon period this season, the on-court pain will most likely come during that guaranteed four years after – and if personal history is any indicator, it will come. – 4:15 PM

There was speculation that Kyrie Irving would hold out if he was not traded.
A player who withholds services for 30 days or more is viewed as not finishing his contract.

Two huge questions remain for Nets in wake of Kyrie deal.

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS
There was a real chance the Mavericks were never going to get another All-Star if they didn’t move on Kyrie.
They just didn’t have the assets to win a bidding war against the Knicks, Thunder, Rockets, Jazz, Pels or Grizzlies.
They had to do this here and now. This is their shot – 3:38 PM

Kyrie Irving extension talks are expected to be put off until this summer. He is eligible for a 2-year extension now and a 4-year deal in the summer.

From @Sam Amick:
The Lakers would trade their two 1st-round picks, as well as Austin Reaves and Max Christie, if Kyrie is willing to sign a two-year extension.
If Kyrie is set on a 4-year max deal after this year, LA considers him a rental and would offer “significantly less”. – 1:47 PM
Michael Dugat @mdug
Not sure if it’s arrogance or just a lack of awareness, but one concern I have with the Mavs FO, only compounded by the Kyrie trade demand, is their apparent inability to realize when they are out of the running for a primary target and pivot to the other possibly good deals. – 1:20 PM

This should be some week. Clippers almost certainly will make a move or two. I keep remembering that Coach Lue won an NBA title in Cleveland with Irving and that George won Olympic Gold with Kyrie. Their opinions will be vital inputs. – 12:44 PM

Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz
The Athletic reports Clippers made “strong offer” for Kyrie. Clippers previously only team publicly linked to Lowry. In terms of having contracts to do something significant,
it’s unfortunate for Heat that Lowry&Duncan are out for undetermined lengths with Thurs. trade deadline – 12:06 PM
Micah Adams @MicahAdams13
Lakers get:
– Kyrie + Dragic
Nets get:
– LaVine + Jones Jr. + Bradley
Bulls get:
– Westbrook + 2027 & 2029 LAL picks
Lakers have no leverage and are desperate. Plus proven backup. Nets get proven 2nd banana plus some depth. If they want DDR instead, ok. Bulls get the picks. – 12:04 PM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Kyrie Irving has not decided yet whether he will suit up for the #Nets again and play or sit out the rest of the season if not moved by Thursday’s trade deadline, according to a source familiar with the situation. But it is a nuclear option they say is being discussed. #NBA10:51 AM

🆕 @TheAthletic
Why the hell would the Clippers even consider breaking up their depth and risking their chemistry for Kyrie Irving, a player who is consistently unavailable?
Because the door was never quite closed between Tyronn Lue and Kyrie Irving.

Feels like the Nets have a decent chance of unloading Ben Simmons in a Kyrie trade if they can get the Lakers and Clippers to bid against each other.
I can think of one really good example where one LA team overpaid in a trade out of concern over what the other LA team might do. – 10:13 AM

Jacque Vaughn after his #Nets – with no Big Three & stunned by Kyrie news – rallied from 23 down to win: “It’s proof, its evidence of who we want to be as a team. We talked about it before. Just show up, man. Show up and do the work.”

More on this storyline

The Nets, rather than trading with Phoenix or the Lakers, ultimately came away with the two Mavericks they wanted most and a better win-now duo than L.A. could offer: Dinwiddie and Finney-Smith. The Nets also succeeded, as one source close to the process put it, in meeting one of the presumed objectives held by team owner Joe Tsai by sending Irving somewhere other than the Lakers — his preferred destination. -via Marc Stein @ marcstein.substack.com / February 5, 2023
League sources say the Clippers offered Luke Kennard, Terance Mann, one future first, and two first-round pick swaps. An additional salary would’ve been required to complete the trade, but that was the gist of it. -via The Ringer / February 5, 2023
Nets Daily: Trade will generate two trade exceptions for Nets, one of $5 million, another of $1.8 million that they can use at any point in next year. Trade also saves Joe Tsai $18.8 million in luxury taxes, dropping the bill from $108 million to $80 million barring any subsequent moves. -via Twitter @NetsDaily / February 5, 2023
