I love this boy but I don't know how can we get him. there is little chance for OKC to give durant away,so this would be a holy crap for us to discuss this issue here>
there is no "Hell Yes" option. Actually, if it means breaking up the team to get him like the Barkley trade, then I dunno. I've grown too attached to this team. If we win a championship, it has to be with the core of this team together. meaning everyone is untouchable except for Cook, JT, and tmac. If we can do a Cook, tmac, and JT for Durant and fillers then yes.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that OKC matches any offer that is made to Durant. He will be a RESTRICTED free agent next year folks. That makes a huge difference.
This. I can fairly confidently state that Kevin Durant is the LEAST ATTAINABLE player in the NBA. Unlike Lebron, Wade, etc. (who are UNRESTRICTED free agents who can sign wherever the hell they want next summer), Durant is a restricted free agent who has no such freedom. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if Sam Presti already has a max contract printed out and in his desk drawer, just waiting for it to be signed by Durant when (or maybe even before) he hits restricted free agency. \thread
Kevin Durant will get his max extension contract when this seasons end and he will be the franchise player for the Thunder for another 5 years. I say we move on.
Uh . . . I think Sam Presti has plans to use all that cap space they've been saving for the last couple of seasons BEFORE extending/signing Durant. He's a hell of a GM and has a set plan for that team.
I want Durant on the Rockets more than I want VY on Texans.... Why do you make me suffer like this...
Exactly, he won't hit the market, he'll be signed before they even get a chance of having to match an offer. He's not going anywhere.
i guess im an idiot because i wouldn't want him, would i want him as a back up player on my team, yeah sure... but do i want to pay him big money to be the main focus,absolutely not!.. i think he is overrated , and thats no problem of his but being on a mediocore team and the focal point tends to make a player look better than what he actuall is. He reminds me of Al harrington, D Granger in indiana, andrea bargnini in tor., and douglas roberts in NJ... in other words, he can score because he gets a lot of touches and is asked to shoot the majority of the time, but he can't do the little things like defend, find the open man from the post, post up with ease and hit a fadeaway, rebound consistently. Dont get me wrong, he is young and can only get better, but to me he has a long ways to go, he is not lebron, hes not wade, hes not carmelo, he is Durant on a mediocore team. just an opinion from an idiot i guess
No, he sucks. Wait...we're talking about PGA Tour player Joe Durant...right? No way we're talking about whether the fans would want NBA stud Kevin Durant.
Amazing. I'd like to ask a favor from the ts. Could you actually break down your thought process beteen typing this and hitting submit?
