But what do the Pacers get out of doing a s+t if all the pick from the suns would have to go to the nets?

Yeah I was just thinking it over again. I'm not sure why they would bother. They cleared the cap room to sign him outright. This could actually be us involving Indy to try get Brooklyn on our side.

Indy want to sign Ayton. So they may be hoping Brooklyn don't arrange a S&T for Ayton for KD. So they offer a good deal for Turner. which could make Brooklyn lean towards a deal with Miami. That way Brooklyn don't need Bam, Indy get their guy in Ayton.

If this is even the case with Miami even more, literally NOBODY is talking about KD to Miami anymore because we don’t have enough assets. The reporters, ESPN, fans and even the casuals.

Was watching espn earlier and they said Raptors,Pelicans and Hawks have good pieces to move (Perkins dumb azz said hawks) (they just traded a bunch of picks for Murray too). Chit a lot of teams have more assets than us

Yeah Hawks can only send 2FRPs, If Pelicans send out Ingram and matching salary, Is KD thinking he's going anywhere with McCollum and 21yo Zion? Raptors have the assets to do it easily but would a VanVleet/Siakam/Durant trio be appealing enough to him? Could be possible but I also imagine KD not being very interested in living in Toronto.

These insiders are such clowns. What does full roster even mean, is Phoenix getting him for free? :lol:

it’s devin booker and an aging Chris Paul in a loaded West, or teaming with Jimmy and Bam in a top heavy East.

Durant has lost his damn mind and is living in a fantasy world. U WANNA PLAY WITH LOWRY SO BAD??????

There's no way this includes Lowry, if that was a requirement should KD come here then we wouldn't even be on his list because that is impossible.

Blurb about wanting to play with Butler, Bam and Lowry allows a framing of narrative/perspective where there’s a greater concession by Miami’s side to get it done by giving Lowry. It ups Lowry’s trade value too. IMO it’s not actually that KD is demanding Lowry be kept

Nevermind on fillers he makes 31m

It's getting worse as we go too. Each one of these attention seekers is making up more outlandish stories.

Seems like these “sources” are getting worse and more unbearable by the year. It’s definitely worth checking out from following all this talk for a while

Its either that or he really wants PHX so he's trying to make the Miami equation a lot harder.

I’ve been refreshing all day in Twitter and here in Realgm but still no movement from the Heat. This KD/Kyrie/Mitchell saga is killing me, I just want this to be over with and move on whatever roster we build for the next season lol

Just give me John Collins at this point lol

All I know is that running it back is unacceptable. This is 2005 all over again. In 2005 after falling so close to Detroit, Riley pulled off the trade with most players involved in NBA history. Then in 2006 we won it all. Something drastic needs to happen so we can win it all again.

One hitch in our plans for Durant. If the packages floating out there with us for Irving are to be believed then why would Brooklyn entertain our offers of the same package plus all our picks for Durant?

Brooklyn can just take the haul of picks, Bridges and expiring's from PHX and then still likely get Kyle and Herro from us for Irving anyway.

Whereas PHX likely have no interest in Irving unless they planning on moving CP3 for him and the alternative for him will be what scraps you get from LAL.

If I'm Brooklyn I take the PHX deal and take Miami's deal for Kyrie.

So basically
Bridges, Crowder, Johnson, Saric, 4FRPs, Swaps from Phoenix for KD
Herro, Lowry, Strus from us for Kyrie.

Then Nets look to reroute Harris and some of pick/s to Indy for Turner

I’m not giving up herro for one year of Kyrie

It doesn't really. We can't complete a trade for Durant without including one of them. It doesn't really do anything to Lowry's value as he would be a starting point in any discussions without Jimmy and Bam at a bear minimum.

I doubt the Heat are offering Lowry for Kyrie. Herro, Duncan, and a 1st
