Kyrie Irving’s trade proposal will make Nico Harrison blush
The season did not turn out any better Dallas Maverickswho are grasping at straws to get anything started.
They lost a heartbreaker to the New York Knicks113-111, at the American Airlines Center on Wednesday to drop to 4-13, including 3-8 at home.
Simply put, the Mavericks can’t win without Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving. Davis is out for a few more days with a calf strain, while Irving is still recovering from a torn ACL.
The way things are going, former Mavericks guard Theo Pinson discussed the possibility Irving who is changing to Houston Rockets. He said the Mavericks could get either Amen Thompson or Alperen Sengun for Irving.
“I don’t know if I’m (Rockets) saying no way. If he’s (Irving) not injury-prone, if he’s not hurt. At this point, he’s in championship mode. So at that point, get me a team that can win,” Pinson said on his podcast.
“We saw that yesterday. They (the Mavericks) have a money problem over there, too. Maybe they’d just get rid of these guys so they don’t get over it — I don’t even know what this apron is and all this other shit.”

When the Rockets hear Pinson’s pitch, they might respond with, “Nico Harrison, is that you?”
In a parallel world where Irving goes to Houston, he would be reunited with Kevin Durantand we all know what happened when they teamed up on the Brooklyn Nets.
The 33-year-old Irving re-signed with the Mavericks to a three-year, $119 million deal in the offseason, so he’s clearly part of the team’s future.
But hey, with the way things are going in Dallas, we never know.
