Because it is hard to land superstar free agents. Every team is trying to bring them in and so much of it is driven by personal relationships of the player.
Maybe Kawhi will come to LA. Maybe Kawhi will love playing with Lowry and Siakim and stay in Toronto. Or maybe he will prefer the Clippers over the circus that is the Lebron James media circle. I think it is pretty clear that Kyrie and KD will not be joining Lebron anytime soon.
So then you are looking at guys like Walker or Middleton who are not superstars but great players that will have numerous suitors.
When you have the chance to get a All-NBA level player, I think you do whatever you can to do it.
Kyrie in LA LA Land would be a bad idea. That fella would see the Pacific Ocean, notice how flat it is & his flat Earth nonsense will start all over again.
Trading him & who knows to N.O. for the Unibrow is a much better destination for that former dookie.
