Kills the future of the team, put the Mitchell stuff to bed, takes away an elite recruiter and player everyone wants to play with. Takes the backbone of our entire defense away.

Would be a horrible move.

1. Brooklyn has Miami's best. They have the trades line up with confirmation to pick up 2 additional FRPs plus releasing OKC pick aswell. Until Brooklyn gives us an Approval Miami will not pull the trigger as one of the trades happens away from a third team to pick up assets.
2. NY is working hand in hand with Miami, surprising but to mutual degree. We cannot allow Utah to fleece NY and drive up Market. And NY wants us to nab Durant because around the league he is seen as a more valuable asset than Mitchell thus bringing the market back to tolerable levels. This help push the Gobert trade to operpayed obscurity and NY current offer should net them Mitchell.
3. Brooklyn GM and Execs have gone on family vacations and are mulling over our offer. Expect silence and small tidbits in the next 2 weeks with their final determination happening next.
4. More on the Durant meeting, he was heard saying I need to move on from this ish in the background as his Agent talked about their commitment to next season. He expressed his client has zero intentions of doing that. A Brooklyn exec was on the call as well although nothing was said from his end. They obviously know we know Durant wants nothing to do with them moving into any future negotiations to stay.
5. Herro's Agent did reach out to Miami, he has been traveling with his girlfriend nothing there as previously reported of lack of communication.
6. Theres a planned training sessions with a few Miami Heat players including Jimmy/Bam where Durant will be joining middle of next month August on the team board.

It makes sense for 2 teams to work together to do that. The Golbert thing messed up the value of players. By that logic, Mitchell deserves 8 frp and Durant 10. Market is way too overinflated. Working together makes it possible for NY to get what they want and for Miami to possibly get what they want.

It seems like they are even trying not to trade Lowry...no way Bam is or has been offered for anybody.

3rd team? Thats a low bar for a player with no ceiling. We should want competition

That belongs on the fantasy trade thread. If all it takes to move Duncan is second round picks we would have bought them and done that by now.

Then you have the Mavs giving up two first round draft pick.

The word delusional comes to mind. The Mavs, The Nets and The Spurs all say hard pass. Miami is the only one jumping up and down in that trade.

You gotta be smoking some questionable stuff if you think the Spurs and Mavs say no in that trade. A lotto protected 1st and an additional 1st for Lowry and Strus is a good deal for a team that already has Luka and was going hard for Lowry last year. Spurs are getting FOUR 2nd rounders just to take on Duncan (who, if he has a good year, can easily be flipped for more assets).

Nets are getting Herro, Jovic, Powell, AND 7 1sts lol.

I can see the Mavs haggling down to just a single 2nd, but even getting 2 2nds just to take on Dunc's 17mil with the impending cap jump is a great deal for the Spurs.

If we all acknowledge that Bam is too crucial to our future to trade, why are we talking about KD? Because there is zero pathway otherwise lol.

And I mean Zero. Riley and Andy will certainly try to be wizards here, but it simply ain’t happening.

Cap space is worth more than second rounders, the Knicks traded a high draft pick to make space. The Spurs are not idiots here. The Mavs have no interest in that trade, no way they trade two first round draft picks.

Seems to be broken out as

Heat in - Durant, Bertans
Heat out - Lowry, Strus, Highsmith, Herro, Yurtseven, Jovic, Duncan, 2023 1st, 2027 1st, 2029 1st, 2024 pick swap, 2028 pick swap, 2026 2nd, 2028 2nd, 2029 2nd

Mavericks in - Lowry, Highsmith, Strus
Mavericks out - Bertans, 2025 1st, 2027 1st, 2025 2nd, 2029 2nd

Thunder in - 2026 2nd, Heat pick in 2025 unprotected
Thunder out - Cash considerations? Idk. Maybe an overseas player that never comes

Spurs in - Duncan Robinson, 4 2nd round picks (25, 27, 28, 29)
Spurs out - Cash considerations? Idk. Maybe an overseas player that never comes

Nets in - Herro, Yurtseven, Jovic, 2023 1st, 2027 1st, 2029 1st, 2024 pick swap, 2028 pick swap, 2025 1st (Dallas), 2027 1st (Dallas)
Nets out - Durant

Heat look like

Vincent/Schroder
Oladipo/Ellington?
Jimmy/Martin
KD/Bertans
Bam/Dedmon

With no picks for the rest of the decade

Barry just click baiting. Riley is not moving Bam for Durant. And any notion of Ben Simmons coming here is beyond all levels of absurdity in every single fashion. I don't care how he fits or what not. We are not taking on that Klutch baggage in the name of moving Bam. That would be one of the biggest black eyes on this organization and everything it stands for.

Before we got Lowry, the Pelicans and Mavericks both really wanted him.

Don't be surprised if those are the 2 teams interested.

Did you see my deal with the Pelicans? Can I be famous too like Adam if I post my trades on Twitter and get them posted here? Lol
