Reading an article by Joe Friedman at Mavs Moneyball and he calls Kyrie “the single most polarizing trade asset on the mavs”… am i missing something or is that not AD? I haven’t heard anyone really advocate for trading Ky but have heard quite a few for and against trading the unabrow china doll

It’s just buzzwords. By technicality ad is the most polarizing.
It’s true I don’t think Kyrie is polarizing, but now that I think about it idk anyone who actually wants to keep AD, so theoretically that would mean he isn’t that polarizing, right? 🤷♂️ I think either Gafford or Lively is the most polarizing because people actually have strong opinions about if they should be traded or not
Edit: Just to be clear, I mean polarizing strictly regarding whether or not they should be traded, not how they fit on the team or how good they are
Polarizing requires wildly different opinions
I think everyone in the league is pretty much in agreement on AD– a Top 15 player when healthy but declining with age and only available at full strength 35-40 games a year at best
Kyrie seems untradeable so this is all cope. 33 going on 34, has an extensive injury history missing long stretches. Suffered once of the worst tears for a perimeter player who relies on stopping on a dime quickness, also has the rep of being a potential cancer in the wrong situation. Plus Kyrie will be a shell of himself the remainder of this year. He is not Adrian Peterson
why would y’all even considering trading kai? dont you want to build a culture? kai, klay & naji seem to be good vets to be around our young players
