 The Dominican connection Horford and Towns. I think Horford and Stevens would be the perfect help that Towns needs. We would have the best pair of bigs in the league. The best wings. Hayward, Tatum, Brown, Morris

 Rozier and maybe Smart. Plus three firsts next year to find our guy.

I vote no.

I would rather have Kyrie Irving on my team than Towns.

I would say yes if the guy could play a lick of defense.

Big men who can't defend are massive liabilities in a "switch everything" defense.

I dont think I would do this without knowing how a fully healthy Cs squad looks next year. Everyone is antsy to make another big move. I don think that happens this summer. I think this summer is about consolidating pieces into viable 6th man type players along with re-signing some key role players (i.e. Baynes and Smart). A healthy Cs team next season could be a 60 win team and a legitimate defensive/offensive machine.

I'd make the trade without hesitation for reasons that don't matter given that Irving would never  tell the Wolves he'd re-sign there.

Unless he has real concerns about Kyrie's knee long-term, Ainge should laugh at this idea.

I would do it. Something like

KAT + Aldrich + Tyus Jones for Kyrie + Clips 2019 first

- Generational big men don't grow on trees.
- He is 3 years younger than Kyrie.
- Has never missed a game (82/82 three seasons in a row). Kyrie on the other hand is not exactly an iron man.

Having said that

- I don't believe KAT is gonna leave Minny any time soon.
- Even if he does, I bet the Wolves would rather have Tatum.

Exactly! I like KAT but he seems lazy at times especially at the defensive end.

Like to add if Irving was playing, tonight would be the close out game and we would be headed to the NBA finals!

After seeing Rozier’s mostly poor performance tonight so far, the notion of trading Kyrie is utterly ridiculous.

Absolutely not. Kyrie is a proven commodity while Towns went missing during their playoff run.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

This poll is silly. I can’t believe 1/4 CB Members would do this. Kyrie is a top 10 player playing skill position.
The only color that matters is GREEN
