Durant traded to Houston for Green, Brooks, #10 pick, and multiple 2nd rounders

I'm fairly close with parts of Nets mgmt and many of its former players (Brooklyn is the location to relocate every player it seems).

When Durant was there, he didn't cause any issues, but he certainly wasn't a leader. It's not really his personality. The true combustion was because James grew tired of Kyrie's "decisions" which led to him not playing. James just wants to win and rightfully so.

In my most recent conversation with ThunderDan, PHX had a toxic, toxic locker room. Durant and Book were no longer close, and Beal had the entire bench/low minute guys in his side. Coach had to be replaced as he lost KD very early on. Ironically, KD was closest to Grayson, especially as Book knew more and more that KD checked out.

I'd expect KD to be a quiet leader by his work, but the consistent leader in the Rockets with Ime's complete rust has always been Fred. Despite his numbers, he's incredibly valuable on and off the court.

The current focus is money and one more guard for security. How do you value a great year from mgmt v. player?

Wish you well.

 

So Kevin Durant likes Greyson. He will now love Reed.
