Don’t stress too hard, Thunder fans. Yes, Durant, 27, is the star of this year’s NBA free agency reality show. But barring an incredible sales job, several friends and business colleagues close to the 2014 NBA MVP expect him to return to Oklahoma City for at least another year.

“His decision is 90 percent made. It would take an amazing sales pitch to change it,” said one of Durant’s longtime friends.

Giving Whiteside or Derozan the max would qualify.

i don't understand why they didn't trade him. shite maybe no one wants him lol. he's not a franchise player he won't be a franchise layer and he's a locker room cancer on one of the few teams that's a legit free agent destination every year


They got Ingram shite they can get SOMEONE to play with them as long as he isn't there no one is going to go there with him there and it's not like his talent is good enough to over look his snitchiness it's not

That's Darrell's guy . We could have gotten boogie for Russell, Randle, 32nd pick.

Hopefully the Lakers get Horford, but I doubt it.

Batum,Charlotte, and Baze, Atl are doubtful now.

The Buss family has got to wake up.

Disagree with his on court potential. D'Angelo is going to be a stud imo. He's got everything you would want in a young PG but yeah the Nick Young thing was awful for his reputation

Hey at least Batum will talk to Lakers the phone. Progress right?

Source tells @MarcJSpearsESPN that Nic Batum will meet with Hornets and Mavs in Dallas and will talk to Knicks, Lakers, Wizards on phone.

Bosh is fricking the heat over right now. His contract they aren't going to pay 2 centers over 20 million each and he's not going to play next year. They want to pay Hassan but don't want to pay 2 centers. That's why they wouldn't let Bosh play in the playoffs they want him to retire




He isn't fricking them over. They are fricking themselves over. They signed the contract. He was not holding them hostage.

If I had to guess, re-sign horford, lose Baze, sign a few solid rotational wings, get a 4-6 seed and prepare for some major FA disappointment next summer.


I'm guessing keep Horford, lose Baze, get vet FA backup big and PG (bring back Hump, get someone like Jarrett Jack), and maybe 1 vet wing. prob more of a combo PG/SG. they just spent 1st round picks on 2 wing players. whoever vet FAs are, give them big 1 year deals and go back into FA next year.

Man I am thinking Horford goes to OKC, and if so they will be LOADED.

C Adams
PF Horford
SF KD
SG Oladipo
PG Westbrook

I think Billy Donovan is going to be a swaying factor and the Thunder suddenly become the favorite to win the west / title.

Damn! On paper, I'd pick them over GS without hesitation.
