I will give you credit for coming up with the absolute trade idea for Kyrie yet.

As I clicked on the link, Afroman" "Because I Got High" had just started playing on my youtube playlist. Any coincidence?

So we trade Kyrie for D'Angelo Russell and Jeremy Lin?

So basically we trade an Allstar in his prime for D'Angelo Russell, who apparently got traded for like pennies on the dollar, and procure the Boston beloved with Linsanity? No thanks.

I think you may be confused. "Robbing Brooklyn again" would mean getting the better end of the deal
I'm bitter.

Isaiah Thomas wouldn't propose a trade for Kyrie this bad.

We get utterly robbed in that trade.   I got news for you we are in win now mode, not building assets.

Russel  not that far off from becoming what Kyrie is , also younger cheaper , Lin puts some scoring punch in the second unit and we get future pick, or picks . Either way still the best in the east and avoid Kyrie walking away with nothing to show for it
