Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
KD is not going to want to go to the Bulls. He wants to compete.

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
You're not getting KD for a late first and fillers. Make it 12 instead of 24 and this has legs. You asked for lotto pick for coby white before but is only willing to offer ayo and por 1st for KD? You're not being serious

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
I don't think Durant gets the Suns multiple firsts, but he definitely will get them more than a bunch of garbage and a late first round pick.

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
Is Chicago planning to make more additions? Doesn't feel like enough left to do much with KD.
Also feels like OKC is losing value on their part. I'm all for pushing assets back, but there is no upside and there is real downside of not getting a first.
KD value is a less interesting part of this for me, but yeah its underwhelming for the Suns.

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
OKC can only scratch their collective heads and wonder why they're involved
If this is the best PHO can do for a perennial all star, I'd sit down with KD and say let's just be professional, lump it and you can stay or retire. That is a high quantity return that is very close to nothing in quality. the best thing for PHO is the 5 expiring contracts and that's only if housecleaning is their goal.
I actually think that if that roster plays the same style of ball that they finished last year with, they might get to the 2nd round of the play OFFS

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
Mediocre players and a late 1st round pick isn't going to be enough to get Kevin Durant. The Suns would be getting a lot worse, while still not owning their own picks going forward. Any deal with that involves the Bulls getting Kevin Durant is going include ether Coby White or the 12th pick, which at that the Bulls should decline since they're not a 37 year old KD away from contending for a Championship in a weak Eastern Conference.

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
Thanks for the feedback-I would add Coby and take our Huerter for sure
Remember, Suns save a bunch of $ here too. Switch Coby/Huerter saves more

Re: KD to Bulls w/ OKC
I’m just kind of surprised Dieng not going to Chicago.
