No, I feel you.It's never a waste of time to sit down with a superstar & try to recruit them. And those other 3 players you just named, don't need to be courted. Just give them an offer & see if they would be willing to bite. I wouldn't mind Batum, I don't see the hype about Crabbe, and I don't want Whiteside. I'm getting a bad vibe from homie, like he's played his best ball, and is just looking for that big payday.
I mispoke.
If they are rolling out the red carpet...it's a waste.
If they are sitting down and offering a concise pitch... that's cool.
But don't put all all the eggs in a basket
Because it's NY, if Durant signs elsewhere... it'll unreasonably look like an L.
