That's a great point, but obviously I wasn't thinking about draft picks when I wrote that. My point is that I would rather win with Kyrie and whoever we build around him and knock LBJ and whatever team he plays for out of the playoffs, instead of trying to get him to come back.
The problem is that you can't know ahead of time whether we can win with just Kyrie and whomever else is around him. It may not be enough. So the real question is whether you're okay with losing with Kyrie and whomever else we build around him rather than having increased our chances by taking back LBJ.
Personally, given the uncertainties, I'm for maximizing our chances.
