The Suns are Durant's top choice and it is now going to be very difficult for them to construct a deal with the Nets that makes sense.

Zach Lowe breaks down why teams need to be concerned about acquiring Durant @ 3:44


if he is not happy with the coach of his choice , on the team of his choice , playing with his flat-earth metaphysically timeless buddy ...
what will make him happy and wanting a long term stay any where?
these open ended questions lower his trade value.

Durant is not a long term answer for anybody. Any team that wants him should view him as a short term rental.

i dont think anyone whos going to trade for KD at this current time will be THAT much better, since you have to trade a lot of shit to get him. the gobert trade really fucked it up for the nets

Min really fucked, that package probably gets you Durrant! If you are screwing your future might as well do it for a guy that gives you a chance at winning it all rather then making the playoffs.


Wolves probably fucked it up for the Nets as well. Nets are now under pressure to get something better for Durant, even though it would be difficult. Nobody was going to give Wiggins + Kuminga for Russell, either.

Miles Bridges fumbled the bag. Domestic violence charges and it looks serious. If true he's a pig and should go to jail.

1.6 million residents of LA face food insecurity every month...
https://www.lafoodbank.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/HungerFacts-Report.pdf

but , hey don't worry about it... Steve Balmer is here to save the day with a multi billion dollar play palace for the most elite finely tuned athletes on plane(t) earth.
https://twitter.com/bytimreynolds/status/1550305888547868673?s=21&t=nBIbQesV_mZYyAf0ZNoGnA

Who needs bread when you've got such an awesome circus?
btw, "Bread Not Circuses Toronto" is a really cool org. Toronto keeps losing Olympic bids partly because of this org and I think its great.

One thing in Balmer's favour though... the whole thing is privately funded. At least they are not scamming the tax payer building this arena.

DISCLAIMER: The (t) is there to be inclusive to Kyrie , Wiggins and guys like that.

which is why i made the comment about GMs wanting to know about Durant's trade value next summer.

Got my Kyrie Irving shoes!

I said to the sales lady.. "i'm looking for the Kyrie Irving Infinity shoe."
She said, "we don't have that shoe we only have the Kyrie Irving 8 shoe"
I thought for a second and said "uhhh I think that's it".
ROFLMAO.

and this just in... Kevin Durant is unhappy.

Ya, there are some ugly versions of the shoe. I got black and white. Also, you can custom assemble the shoe as well. It is a very tight fitting shoe. I prolly shoulda got 1/2 a size bigger.

Welp, Lowry still has a ready-made excuse for being fat and distracted.

https://www.thestar.com/sports/raptors/2022/08/03/life-happens-kyle-lowry-keeps-pushing-through-difficult-period-that-derailed-his-season-with-heat.html?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=SocialMedia&utm_campaign=SportsBasketball&utm_content=lowryback&utm_source=twitter&source=torontostar&utm_medium=SocialMedia&utm_campaign=&utm_campaign_id=&utm_content=

Riley says he wants Lowry in world class condition. It'll be interesting to see how long the Heat tolerate Lowry being out of shape and overweight while he continues to deal with a "family issue".

the Toronto media is so soft and squishy.

I really didn't think Kevin Durant could outdo James Harden, Ben Simmons and Kyrie Irving in unlikability. I mean, ok maybe not Kyrie, but holy shit this tantrum throwing that he's doing is all time on the "what the fuck NBA?" scale.

I do not think its a tantrum. I think it is a strategic decision cooked up by his management team to improve his chances of getting traded out of Brooklyn. If he only demanded 1 management person get fired they might acquiesce to his demand. By requesting the firing of more than 1 management person he improves his chances of getting out of Brooklyn.

One thing is for certain: Durant's trade value did not go up this week.

Yup, that's exactly what I'm thinking. He doesn't want any one of them fired. He's creating an untenable situation to get himself out of there.

rather than the Hollywood 52 year running soap opera ... "As The World Turns"....
in Brooklyn we have "As The Flat Earth Remains Stationary"

Durant is staying.
