LULZ Delusional homers and triple chinned Maury keep taking L's. Another L to their record "Houston is a top 5 FA agent destination" "We have a superstar in Harden who everyone wants to play with" "We have cap room to sign another max along with Durant" "Harden and Durant are best buddies" "Oh and we have his childhood buddy in Beasley" - Kool aiders and
All I know is someone better sign Harrison Barnes to a max offer sheet at midnight and put GSW on the clock.
I hope Durant is just taking fake meetings and the screws everybody and sign with us, Warriors lose Barnes for nothing, Spurs lose Mills and Diaw...Rockets 2016/17 nba champions baby!!!
The only thing to be hoped for now is that Durant signs a 1+1 year deal with OKC and the somehow we miraculously turn it around this offseason and become a contender with Pringles as our coach.... Pringles...Pringle... ...ah, we are screwed.
Pretty sure he will stay in OKC. They were close to beating the Warriors. And the Ibaka trade further strengthen the team. If I were him, I would want to build my legacy with the team that drafted me.
Lol you guys are delusional, he will not come to Houston with this joke of an owner, and joke of a coach.
Harden will want out by the All-Star Break. I hope the misery of a forced rebuild finally motivates Les to sell the team.
A rebuild would help us no matter who the owner is. It's long overdue. I just don't trust Les to ever have the patience for one.
I am not sure why this is surprising. A year ago Durant would have strongly considered the Rockets. He has spoken very highly of the front office in the past. However why would KD want to come to a team with a GM in limbo, an owner that is erratic and middling talent other than Harden. Also firing their head coach after a handful of games didn't help.
How? Olidipo was impressingly athletic but not as athletic as Westbrook. OKC lost a true inside man that can shoot the midrange and 3 at times. When Adams and Kanter are off OKC will be hurting in the paint. Heck Ibaka was an outstanding front court continuity guy. I dunno... OKC got worse.
He won't even need to. The Rockets will be forced to deal him by next summer when it becomes clear he has no intention of resigning in 2018.
First 3 teams he's meeting with are Spurs, Thunder, and Warriors. Durant is planning to leave on a publicity tour in the Far East on July 9, and a decision is expected before the departure date, league sources said.
