Stay tuned, this may get a 3rd team involved and grow into a bigger deal.

There’s talk that Brooklyn is trying to flip Spencer somewhere else, they also have 3 1st round picks to trade with the 27 6ers, 29 Dallas and their own 29 pick

I don't think SAS knows anything coming out of Durant's camp.

Certainly seems like this could happen, I think Nets are big game hunting to see if they can keep Durant

Brown is a solid return for Durant honestly

But SAS is repped by WME(Spent most of his career at CAA, the biggest agency in the NBA) and more specifically Josh Pyatt, who is a big name in getting a lot of players transitioned into media.

he might not be in KD's camp, but he might know of someone that is being included in trade talks to make salaries work.

Durant is being moved and we can't offer Ingram? Jesus...

First team to really say frick you to a player that just signed a contract and dare them to tank their career over it(and KD and Kyrie flinched and showed up to work), then taking the step of actively not taking the trade to the team the player was trying to force his way to.


Yep. Was talking to my buddy about this yesterday. Props to him.

But also, the Lakers just can't put together a package to compete with other teams when it comes to a big name player. Tsai could actively avoid trading him to the Lakers but it also probably wasn't that hard on him because their offers don't compare to what else is out there. Lakers fans are rioting on Twitter saying Pelinka should be fired for not getting Kyrie. I mean what do they think they had that could get him? That 2029 pick isn't worth what they think it is, the Nets needed players too. He should be fired for letting Lebron be GM.

That's what an entitled fan base thinks like. People should trade to them for nothing.

The gm may not be there in 6 years either.

We don't know if KD is being moved nor do we know if BI is being offered for KD.

As much as I am kinda down on Ingram currently, I still wouldn't trade him for KD. I just do not believe in trading for guys who will be 35 to start next season.

It's not like he's been injury free either. There's a much better chance that he's injured and out of the league at 38, than that he's still an All Star.

He is, or it could be that Marks is leaking a name like Brown to get whoever is bidding for KD to up their offer. I always figured if KD was available that BI would be the biggest trade chip offered up so that could limit the picks we'd have to offer. (tinfoil hat time) If we were negotiating with the nets for KD by offering BI and a couple picks and a swap this is a good way to make the Pels up their offer, because Brown has a higher trade value than BI right now IMO.

It sounds kind of crazy for Boston to make any moves right now. They are in the driver seat for the next 3-5 years. They would have to believe that they have no shot at the title for a move like this to be made. I don't see it.

Unless they get the sense Jaylen may seek other pastures and would prefer to bring in an upgraded player with 3 years on his contract after this one as opposed to sticking with the lesser player with only one year left.

I think this is a very good possibility. You can tell he and Tatum don’t care for playing with each other, and Brown thinks he can be the man somewhere.

Eh. Even in the East it's not that hard to imagine the Bucks or Sixers beating them in a 7 game series. They are awesome no doubt, and I wouldn't trade for KD if I were them, but I'm not penciling them in for anything.

Jaylen Brown's contract expires after next season. That is the reason they'd trade him for KD if it happens...it doesn't seem like they have the best relationship, and that would be why they could go for a move like that.
