This whole idea of Kyrie for Leonard kind of breaks my brain. I can imagine some lineups that could lay waste to the league, but then I worry - a lot - about building a team that might have to sit two of its best players at crunch time and has only one capable (and aging) big. Then add the question mark that is Kawhi - he's either got a nagging injury or just let everybody who depends on him go hang - his teammates, his coach, the team owners and fans. That's a heck of a lot of risk.
But, but, but -- Smart, Brown, Hayward, Kawhi, Horford. Can that group score and defend? Oh yes. Or if Tatum develops his PG skills, go mad scientist: Tatum, Brown, Hayward, Kawhi, Horford. I mean...
Then I remember the current team, if Hayward had been healthy, would probably have gone to the finals. Exhale. Relax. Sit tight - and hope for the Lakers pick to transfer via the lottery...
