    I’ll agree on Alpi. Not Ime’s fault.

    Fred, Jock, Tari, and #10 should get it done.

    Minnesota might be actually intriguing for the Suns dumbass owner. Instead of getting out of salary cap he may prefer plug and play vets to remain mediocre. They may need a 3rd team to make the money match. Phoenix needs a center, just saying. I always thought NY would try to get in the mix, if Giannis is off the board, but I’m not sure Durant would agree to NY. As far as the reported Durant wants to go to SA, I’m more in the clickbait or Suns trying to get more out of the Rockets angle than it being a real source. I would think Durant would rather go to a 2 seed than a team that didn’t make the playoffs, even with the everyone wants to play with Wemby stuff.

    “Heat culture” is some of the biggest BS in the NBA

    If they are dumb enough to give up Adebayo for Durant I think it would be a done deal, but I agree I don’t see a clear path for Miami to get to competitive any time soon.

    At KD’s point in his career going to live in SA definitely doesn’t sound appealing. But KD is a weird dude so who knows.

    I don’t know I’ve ever heard of Durant hitting the bars or anything. I think I have seen stuff about him being a video game nerd and such. It’s a beautiful area of Texas so if you are a multi-millionaire home body it might be kind of nice place to live.

    It will come down to Houston or SA. Hopefully the relationship he has with Ime will help….

    Towns and Hukporti for Durant works. Knicks are disgruntled with Towns and the Suns want to keep being relevant. It wouldn’t surprise me if this is what gets done if Durant agrees.

    Pretty sure the deal is already done with SA. Just a matter of getting it out
