So I read this trade proposal and chuckled. Sure, why not? If KD's value is this high? Houston: Zaccharie Risacher from the Hawks, along with Duncan Robinson and Ron Holland II + Pistons #1 Hawks: Houston '27 second-rounder, Houston's first in '28, DFS Pistons: Durant Obviously, the Hawks can't have DFS; was he really a coveted commodity? Surely H-town could find another way to make the money work. I can't think this is too serious.
I really don’t like it when Rockets fans waive the white flag and keep assuming “we’re cooked”. Sorry just my opinion. We play those teams tough every year. They’re not unbeatable and they have shown they’re vulnerable. Let’s let the season play out before determining that.
I really think that once LeBron gets relocated, there is gonna be this period of time where the market for Duran Duran becomes very strong. That could happen immediately after LeBron land somewhere, it could potentially happen right before preseason or maybe occurs at the trade deadline.. I would love to be able to see with the team intact until the trade deadline, but obviously that carries the injury risk. I still think there’s going to be a window where he is going to be a very sought after.
The Rockets lottery pick from last year (Malauch) has played very well for the Suns in the SL. I’ll be curious to see if he carries it over to the regular season. When it rains it pours. I would rather have Flemings and Malauch and a ton of cap space than KD and the Suns pick- but I guess I have to just hope for good fortune.
