    Durant would be crazy to leave OKC after that sick trade they just pulled off. Oladipo is a big big improvement over waiters, and they get a front court swishing 3 point threat and a great prospect in Sabonis. On top of that they have cap room to bring in a free agent.

    Given that they came a few points from being in the finals - there's no way you leave as other than bolting to GS, Durant doesn't have a better chance anywhere else.

    I can't see him going to GS either. He is going to stay.

    We're a top five free agent destination. Don't believe the lying media. We're one of the best regular season franchises over the last 10 years. We're amazing! And Kevin... two words for you... iPad Pro.

    Don't pressure him. This is not the kind of guy you show up at his door at 12:01 A.M. and expect him to appreciate that. He's a private dude. Ask for a meeting whenever it is convenient for him. Let our best personalities say we would love him here and he would be part of the family. If we do anything well, it's getting all of our legends together like were one big family. I think KD would appreciate that more than anything.

    Just maybe don't bring T-Mac, he'd probably tell KD to go to the Lakers.

    Kinda hard to pitch Durant when he won't even meet with the Rockets. Which BTW should be a big wakeup call for Les and Morey. If that doesn't drive the point home how far this franchise has fallen, maybe the half-empty arena this season will do the trick.

    What do the Rockets have over the 6 teams he's rumored to be talking to?

    "You won't have to run... just set up in the corner and wait for Harden to throw you pass when the shot clock is almost to zero."

    Everybody has overhyped the Ibaka trade. Victor is good, however he and Westbrook will shoot themselves out of games. Their shooting and turnovers are a concern.
