Going back to a small market would help his image, which he's obviously concerned about, mend his relationship with Thunder fans and be able to retire with a team and fanbase that he will always be able to call his own. And still have a chance at a few good playoff runs with a young talented team. I could definitely see it happening. Maybe I'm a homer but if he gets traded from Brooklyn that feels like the most likely scenario to me.jokeboy86 wrote:Best2EverDoIt wrote:Yup. Coming back to OKC.
I'll put it this way, if he were to wind up back in OKC he would get absolutely no hate and probably universally applauded just because of what the national media thinks of small markets and how they feel that superstars are doing them favors by wanting to stay there or play there.
Kevin Durant crapped on the franchise, front office and everyone affiliated with the thunder. No thanks.

Joe Tsai (owner of the Nets) just liked a tweet stating: "Team and culture > any one player."
I honestly cant get enough of the Nets soap opera.

I believe Howard mass will say OKCfanSinceSGA&ClippersSinceDURANT has too many characters.

I know a Magical land which could open up a lot of salary space if need be.

I still don’t think he’s going anywhere.
He’s doing this because he’s an attention whore

Nets brass haver zero reason to respect a KD trade request unless the perfect offer comes along.

Maybe but at the same time,KD is 34 and of course he is still a great player but he is injury prone too
The offer will be good but not the biggest in NBA history

nah, he knows he only has a few years of greatness left and he's not about to waste it on a team with nothing around him

Re: Woj:Kevin Durant will want a trade if Kyrie leaves
I wouldn’t be surprised if LeBron and KD joined forces before their careers ended. They’ve always had a weirdly close relationship and have a bone to pick with the Warriors

All of this news is so much ammo for people who dislikes KD the player.

Kyrie has KD Simmons and some decent role players around him that’s not “nothing around him”
He has the Knicks on the list which would be the definition of nothing around him and this is coming from a Knicks fan

Or will just do what they’ve always done and join them rather than beat them.

Re: Woj:Kevin Durant will want a trade if Kyrie leaves
Completely disagree with the "Largest trade package in NBA history"
KD is not in his prime, he's had major injuries, and he'll be 34 when the season starts. Not to say the package isn't going to be a haul but let's not pretend its 2016.
