Andrew Wiggins Yakub Pertl Norm Powell Harrison Barnes Julius Randle “We need 10, Jalen, Jabari & Reed and he’s yours.” GTFO.
They are getting desperate. Just hold the line, the offer is there, if they take it, good, if not, we still good. No reason to overreact and trade valuable assets and players for a 37 year old player when you know, 100%, that younger star players will be available next season.
With the offers from the Spurs, Rockets and Heat coming up short to this point, league sources say the Suns are still hopeful that Durant might warm to the Timberwolves possibility. – via New York Times
Based on how the Suns have treated a future Hall of Famer, I wonder if Durant's agent yawned out loud during that phone call. Does anyone, other than the Phoenix fanbase, care about the Suns' welfare? Their front office has squandered all their picks, blown through so much money, and assembled an untenable roster. Everyone has to start caring at some point, but their mismanagement is not our problem and it's clearly not Durant's problem.
Wouldn't call it desperate if Toronto is offering Poeltl, Quickley and Barrett. Would get the Center they want. Toronto won't give a fork about re-signing see Kawhi last time.
These MFers want the years of pain we had to go through to get these draft picks and young players. They'd be lucky to get Jalen and I'm serious. People need to remember Durant is going to be 37, all it takes is one serious injury and he's gone. That'll be his career. The most they'd get is #10 and salary match, and they can go bug a third team if they want some value.
But Durant doesn't want to go there, I doubt Toronto is making that trade, that is so fantastical that it has to be out there just to get us to raise the price.
“warm” to the Timberwolves? Nah bra. KD don’t want to freeze his ass off in Minny. I don’t blame him. Not a fun place to be during basketball season.
Jalen, 10th pick, and irrelevant salary filler is the most I’m willing to trade for KD Jalen’s stock must be trash
Imagine trading young guys for KD, then not winning a championship over the next couple of years. It’ll set the franchise back and the rebuild would be completely wasted. This is risky as hell.. I wouldn’t even give them Jalen. FVV, Brooks, and Cam should be the only ones that should be in discussion
I think the difference is that Kawhi was 27 then. So it makes sense to try to get him there and convince him. Giving up younger players for a 37 year old player that might have 2-3 years left, LUCKY to have even that, would be dumb. Suns are trying to fool teams into thinking they are not trading a 37 year old player but the reality is, they are, and a player that doesn't want to play there. They are trying to fleece some team and their move should be to get what they can and move on. They are trying to fix the situation they put themselves in and are hoping some team is fool enough to help them. Maybe there will be, but I hope it won't be ours.
Nobody in their right minds would go to Minnesota, when you have your choice between Hou and Miami. Come on dude, you're smarter than that.....even San Antonio is better.
it really is a fair offer. I worry Jalen will blow up somewhere else, but with his contract I’m willing to let him go. I don’t see anyone I’m over the moon with at #10. KD’s age and health risk make this more than a fair offer.
Nobody in their right mind would go play with Anthony Edwards? Lol, ok Miami? U really gotta be kidding. They offer nothing of substance basketball-wise. Any reason to go there is strictly off the court.
