Apparently KD might hold out.

Price keeps dropping…


Nets were never gonna get what they thought for a 34 yr old KD,yes he was a superstar last year but when you get to 34 that could be over at any moment.

As a reference compare Dirk's numbers when he got to 34/35....thats why i wouldnt overpay for him.Hes at the age where the decline starts for 98% of players...

As they should, win win those rockets picks are pick swaps. They get a good rookie regardless :blessed:
That is what they should be doing tbh, draft class is great. I would send both Kyrie and KD home lmao and Houston is bad enough where swaps wont mean much

Kd is far more skilled than dirk. Dirk relied on size and shooting but his bag was limited in general due to his lack of mobility and handle. Kd a whole different animal with his handle.

whats crazy is he was a toe on the line away from beating the Bucks almost single handedly

if he would stop sucking Kyrie's dikk, he would have the help he needed. but when shyt gets rough he lies and runs

in hindsight warriors really played the fukk out of him :russ: they gave Draymond the super green light to get him out of there and it worked easily

one thing about Durant is he wants to "keep it real on the internet" which I love
but when it comes to his actual reality... he doesnt keep it real at all
he has never been capable of leading a team or manning up and becoming one
2 years ago in BK off a terrible injury was the closest he came... and then he folded up immediately next season

same shyt happened in OKC with Westbrook and Scott Brooks

Sean marks will do the Morey playbook
Doubt it …Marks has to win games ..they don’t own their own pick this year and they don’t have an MVP caliber player like Embiid to carry them while KD is sitting out ..so tanking isn’t even an option

Their pick swaps are with Rockets who won't be good either, Rockets will have a worse record with or without Durant playing for Nets.

You can'y compare him to 98% of players when all his life he's been 1 percenter. Dude is elite and the dudes these teams don't want to give up ain't never gonna reach KD levels.

not only is KD 134, but he's missed like 150 games in the last 3 seasons. and the nets are wondering why they aren't getting more teams willing to offer young talent plus like 8 picks for dude.

I wouldn't want the bulls to make that trade either. the asking price is way too high given his age. I don't care how good he was in 2021 playoffs. what does that have to do with now?
