    I mean, getting Bradley Beal was a stupid decision. Ownerships were idiots.

    Tell Beal and Booker to stop sitting on the bench and getting injured then. It’s on them to be more available and healthy

    It was a desperate move but they had to do something. Before the trade, they were far from being a contender. After the trade, they were a little closer if Beal somehow managed to stay healthy.

    They should have been more patient instead of making such a low percentage move.

    We should manage that situation...we have the assets to trade for KD and keep our young core in Sengun, Jabari, and Tari...everyone else is fair game, except I would keep FVV

    I don't think trading for Durant would be wise. We still aren't there. We just need to be patient.

    I wouldn't feel comfortable trading any of our young guys for a 35 year old KD.

    KD can actually retire and put his feet up and sit in his beach house. Drink some bath tub water.....

    Many people would trade Jalen Green for Kevin Durant in a heartbeat. ;)

    Without looking totally clueless, why don't you propose a KD trade that doesn't include Alpi or Bari or Tari.

    KD (47M) for
    Jalen (9.9M) + Jeff (9.6M) + Oladipo (9.45M) + Landale (8M) + Tate (6.5M) + Bullock (2M) = 45.45M

    Voila! We only give up two semi-useful players and unload 3 guys everybody hates. :D

    No way we should even think about trading for Durant you do that if you are one guy from winning it all not when you might make the play in tournament.

    Trading for Beal was such an unnecessary move. KD and Booker are already two of the best scorers they should have gotten defensive players not Beal who is basically a poor man's version of Booker.

    There is an old rule that you should always beware of dudes that put up big numbers on bad teams. That is Bradley Beal in todays league.

    Durant getting ready to jump teams again? Cool. Maybe he can join the NBA champs like he did last time to get another ring.

    KD is frustrated?

    OK.

    He can go lie in the bed that he made.

    What'll be his excuse for leaving this time?
