By far the biggest question in this Kyrie Irving trade is the health of Isaiah Thomas. If he can get back to the level he was at last year, the Cavs may not miss much this year AND they get an exceptionally valuable draft pick. If not, Cleveland has a major problem to solve with IT due for a big contract For the Celtics, this is a huge risk/high reward move. If Kyrie is a true superstar, they both weakened the Cavs and got a great young player on a good contract. If not they could have just cashed in three great trade assets for a player who could leave in 2 years.
