Miami Heat Could Win With Kyrie Irving… But At What Cost?

Here’s what the latest reports suggest.

"The Nets would be interested in Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, or Tyler Herro coming to Brooklyn in a potential Irving trade. Miami would prefer to move off Kyle Lowry, who’s owed $29.7 million next season. While Pat Riley has never shied away from a talented but controversial player in the past, it’s hard to logistically see how Miami can acquire Irving."

And that sounds about right, based on all that’s ever been seen or heard from that Heat side. But here’s the real view of it all, from a point-blank perspective.

If you are Miami Heat, you have to consider a deal, however, you don’t want to have to give up either of the three desired guys mentioned to do so.

With that part out of the way though, whatever you may find yourself having to give up, it’s going to be a massive package, especially if it includes future assets like draft picks or young talent, such as Nikola Jovic.

But then there’s another thought built off of that. It involves ramifications, so to speak.
