The Rockets should drive up a Brinks truck and give up a lottery pick to secure Donatas Motiejunas and his bad back....but Kevin Durant? Sorry them feet are too risky and it's just more can kicking, plus with all of the can kicking the feet are at even greater risk. C'mon Morey take a RISK. DD
Durant isn't a team first player with serious injury concerns. Give DMO 20 shots a game and he will get 27 points like Durant. We need to sign our own guys so we don't make the mistakes we made with Parsons, Scola and Kevin Martin. DD
On topic, am happy to place a solid tip jar bet about this. No way we get Durant. (Insert pic of Melo being key to a championship.)
Be careful. That mural pissed off the LOFs. He was wearing Lin's number. Would a Durant mural piss off Montrezl fans? (yes, I had to look up who was wearing 35)
I think the Rockets will have a very good pitch to Durant in the off-season. I don't think he's like Melo or Bosh in that I don't think getting the absolute highest contract possible is his sole goal. If that's the case, the Rockets have as good a chance as just about anyone and a better chance than most.
No. Their goal may not have been to get the highest contract possible with their own team, it was to go to a big city and large market for other endorsement deals to make more $$$. Houston gets passed up in that situation over and over again. Honestly, KD should be bigger than he is. Right now he's headed down that Karl Malone or KG(Before trade) territory wasting away with little town teams, he needs to play in a big market.

That's the dumbest comment that I've read thus far on ClutchFans...comparing DMo to Durant is like comparing apples to oranges...you should be banned
DD is seriously the most intense fan on this site. Who else among us can claim to hate the owner, the GM, and all the players and still watch the games? Kudos, DD. You are "special."
