Do we even need to pray for that? Isn't that why Brooklyn let him go? He certainly is capable of changing his tune, but not sure I see him taking less money to play here, and somebody would throw money at him.
What you need to be worried about is the Mavs offering him max money. He played fine while he was here, and seems to get along well with team. Would make a good PG, and move Luka to forward (Larry Bird role). Team would be better then, Luka wouldn't be as tired, but...would still have same defensive issues.
FWIW, Kyrie doesn't play bad defense, he's just small (same with Brunson, for that matter). You need those 6'7" players that can guard anybody. Mavs now have...zero of those players?
