First of all the way he is explaining how it went down, he is pulling it out of his ass. And he is just saying things for clicks.

A trade of Butler, Jamie, Jovic and 1st straight up for Durant could not happen. Because the Suns are in the 2nd apron.
There was no other trade option othan Butler and Richardson and pick for Durant.
The Heat was going to make a second trade using Jamie or/Jovic for other players on the Suns. The deal was close to being agreed upon and then Suns owner stepped in an asked for more including Ware and others. Durant got hold of the news and nixed it because he didnt want to traded then. That is when it was decided to lets wait til the summer.
James Jones and the owner finally decide to seperate. Because there has been strife on who is making the decisions.

There was no bad blood between Heat and Suns on the negotiations. Because of the circumstances, Durant getting involved, owner getting involved it was mutually agreement to wait. Heat wanted to go ahead and part with Butler, thus quickly made a series of moves as the clock was ticking.


lol, calling someone out for "pulling it out of his ass" while writing your own fanfic is wild
You’ve got Durant blocking trades like he’s playing GM, owners stepping in last minute, the hypocrisy writes itself

I promise you, nobody views the Terry contract desirable, literally nobody and you have to attach something to move it or take on long term money

You think Rozier's contract is desirable? It's salary filler and nothing more. If you tried to trade Rozier by himself the only thing you could get back is an even worse contract.

Who told you this?


Lets just say this, there is a reason why I was posting James Jones quiet departure from the Suns and mentioning Jones leaving before he did.


To be fair if thats what James Jones wanted for KD, every owner would have fired him. Assuming this is all true, we need to come to the harsh realization that the owner will not take our undesirable and will want actual real assets.

twix2500 wrote:The most likely scenario, that Jamie and Jovic will be sent elsewhere for picks. Because Suns have a bad situation, they can not add players to a trade. They can only trade one player at a time. And the salary they take in has to damn near exactly match. So the Suns can not play around with who they get in return. They are very limited on what they can get in return.

its likely only future salary cap relief and picks is what the Suns are limited to getting.


If a team like Ind wanted to get in on KD, Mia's got no shot.

I mention them because they are already contending and have desirable young players that they could move.

There's gonna be a few teams that nobody's mentioning now that will likely have interest.

KD to Mia feels like a pipedream.

Get fux'ed Cleveland. The 1 seed down 41 at halftime? And going down 3-1 in 2nd round?
Smh. Too bad, so sad.

1st seed in the East down 1-3

2nd seed in the East started down 0-2

1st seed in the West 2-2 after trailing (would be down 1-3 if you swap Jokic for Randle)

2nd seed in the West bounced round 1

3rd seed in the west bounced in 5 in round 1

It’s like Patrick James Riley and I always tell you all, always try your best to compete and have the best possible roster, you just NEVER know who will fold under pressure of the playoffs, who will get injured, etc.

Its not even about that. They made T-Shirts and gave it away game 1 vs Indiana at their home game, celebrating the point difference of how bad they beat us. Cuz wow a 1 seed rocked an 8 seed that had roster turmoil all season in the first round. Congratulations. They can use those shirts to wipe away the tears. Lmao sorry but that really ticked me off when I saw it. I became an instant pacers fan for the duration of the series.

Nesmith and Nembhard looks a lot different than Herro and Wiggins. You should’ve faked an injury after round 1 with that new contract needed this summer

i wasnt aware of this since i'm skipping the playoffs altogether, what they did was supper scummy but the heat are also to blame for allowing it and to think that the same cast minor a few players could be back next season :noway:

Calling it today in the clearest way:

If this team trades Jovic or Ware or anything more then 1 pick for Durant this summer - Ya'll be crying about how bad we got **** in this trade in less then a year.

Sending our limited assets for a 37YO is beyond desperate..it's sad.

I'm okay if the Suns would take Wiggins/Terry/Jaquez + 20th pick.
This gets rid of all their bad contracts and keeps their flexibility for the future.
It also means Heat can waive Duncan to make some space and resign Davion.

I don't see the Suns taking this deal though, but this is the only thing I'd offer for KD, take it or leave it.
