So the Nets turned KD into 8 first round draft picks and 6 second round draft picks with a bunch of pick swaps?

Sounds like a win to me.

Woj is reporting the Rockets wanted picks from the Nets to go get Durant

so the Nets and rockets are making a trade it seems to send the Rockets back the Suns picks

If true, Suns should jump htis offseason on trading Durant to Houston

Mikal is never coming back to Phoenix - probably signing an extension with the Knickerbockers

Jeez - I never wanted that Durant trade with Mikal involved

I fantasized about pairing OG with Bridges on the Suns. I hope the Knicks can keep them both.

Would you do Steven Adams , Dillon Brooks, and 3 firsts for Durant ?

I think

Dragic
Booker
Mikal
Frye
Gortat

Smokes current suns in a 7 game series...


Not positive on trading Durant, but 100% positive on Booker needing to know he is the leader and should make that known. This team will thrive if he puts himself back up as top dog and dominates.

No thanks. Need higher potential than Brooks, Adams if giving up Durant. Also if Mikal just drew 6 picks, Durant is going to have more value than this still.

Make it 4 picks and they take back Nurkic then deal.

But does the new rule allow this to happen?

Gambo is always posting like a fan instead of being a journalist of some sort. I don't think Ishiba gives him any information anyways.


I think Suns seeing how competitive the league is with thunder getting better, Wolves on the rise, Celtics absolutely being stacked, Mavs have flexibility to improve, Nuggets also looking to reload...Suns trio of Booker, Durant and Beal rely on a massive improvement on both ends to even sniff the 2nd round. Considering KD, Beal are High Risk to get injuries and miss games, I think Ishiba needs to listen to his risk assessor and reinvest on another path.

Suns have too many holes to be a contender again. And need immense luck with health and injuries to have a chance at the playoffs... it's just ridiculously unlikely the team will win a ring or go deep in the western playoffs.

Ishiba needs to be realistic.
