5 Kyrie Irving sign-and-trades to boost the Dallas Mavericks' title odds

2. Miami Heat

After their success in the postseason this year, the Miami Heat may get eager to push things forward even more. A trade for Kyrie Irving would certainly help them do that, especially if they got to keep their core intact.

This deal would see them create a core of Irving, Tyler Herro, Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and Kyle Lowry, who could either come off the bench or run in a very small backcourt alongside Irving.

Regardless, the Heat would vastly increase their top-end talent at the expense of their depth, but considering how they’ve fared at finding talent on the scrap heap, they would more than likely be fine.

The Dallas Mavericks would look to improve their depth around Luka Doncic in this deal by adding three quality bench pieces.

Gabe Vincent is by far the most intriguing of the three additions, as he’s shown amazing flashes during this year’s postseason. He could turn into a starting-caliber player and a great running mate next to Doncic in the backcourt.

Meanwhile, Duncan Robinson has seemingly refound his shooting touch during this year’s playoffs. If he can get back to shooting 38-40 percent from deep on high volume, he’d be a fantastic weapon in Dallas.

Lastly, Victor Oladipo’s injury history is concerning, but when healthy, he’s a great defender to employ on the perimeter. Plus, the Dallas Mavericks would get two much-needed picks.
