for KD? i don't think so... nobody thinks the nets would trade KD to the knicks under any circumstances. he was prob talking about mitchell

nola is maybe the team best equipped to make a deal for kd but then the timeline with all their young players just doesnt make sense and they prob wouldnt be a contender anyway

idk imo if you're the pelicans, your title window does not exist and has historically never existed, they have a shitload of picks for just this kind of scenario. i think they should go for it with ingram, cap filler, and like 4 or 5 picks and still have tons of draft capital while opening up a two year window.
― terence trent d'ilfer (m bison), Tuesday, 19 July 2022 22:52 (one year ago) link
the question is if KD is really that player anymore. i tend to agree w/ the everyone who still thinks he's a top 3 player but that boston series has to be a tad concerning. but if you're trading that much stuff to give yourself a two year window you better be 100% sure the guy is still at that level
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:12 (one year ago) link
the question isnt "is kd that guy?" its "will brandon ingram (or any of these picks) ever be that guy?"
― terence trent d'ilfer (m bison), Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:16 (one year ago) link
it's kinda two questions but again if you're giving that much up for KD you can't have him putting up another playoff series where he shoots 40% from the field. i feel like it was just a really bad match up and he'll be a beast again in the playoffs but i would maybe be slightly worried
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:18 (one year ago) link
its not a surefire trade to be sure, but if it was then KD would not be available at all

Dubs getting JaMychal Green for a back-up big seems like a low-key valuable move.
― that's not my post, Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:24 (one year ago) link
hes a quality rotation player for sure
― terence trent d'ilfer (m bison), Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:27 (one year ago) link
he'll fill the bjelica role nicely
― Spottie, Tuesday, 19 July 2022 23:37 (one year ago) link
imo kd is not that guy anymore celtics just exposed him hes basically been exclusively taking elbow jumpers since he he blew up his achilles
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 20 July 2022 00:05 (one year ago) link
i mean he averaged 34 in the offs in 2021, i think its too soon to say hes cooked bc the c's matched up so well on him

no its true actually

The inflation from Gobert trade has got to cool off sooner than later, right? If asking prices for players oriented around that price end up stifling the trade market, the askers are going to have to start lowering their prices right? Unless it's all a game of chicken and some idiot GM caves.
― Stone Cold Steve Ostinato (Leee), Thursday, 21 July 2022 21:00 (one year ago) link
it will cool off but it might take time. there was a point in time where no one thought a team would ever give up something like the nets package for pierce/garnett again. these things always cycle.
― call all destroyer, Friday, 22 July 2022 01:05 (one year ago) link
i think its good that teams are giving up a lot for stars now theyre worth it you just have to make sure theyre actual stars
― lag∞n, Friday, 22 July 2022 01:26 (one year ago) link
arguably the current inflation started with anthony davis to the lakers then you had paul george right after which was crazy
― lag∞n, Friday, 22 July 2022 01:32 (one year ago) link
gobert is the pinnacle tho that shits folkloric

yeah the davis deal restarted this whole cycle

if you've got a big older star you're never going to win with now is really the time to trade him for peak assets, i am not talking about any specific teams local to me don't get me wrong about this

no please why
Sources: The Boston Celtics have offered a Jaylen Brown package to the Nets for Kevin Durant, which Brooklyn turned down and countered.Full details on a potential Celtics-Nets mega-deal to be had, latest on Donovan Mitchell and more at the Inside Pass: https://t.co/Gkyfkhg5A1— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 25, 2022

prob just some conversation they were never close on that the nets are leaking to try to juice the offers

As of right now, the Celtics have emerged as a serious possibility as a landing spot for Durant.
...
No deal for Durant is imminent

as if brooklyn would turn down a package led by jaylen brown for kd lol

shams
The Celtics offered Brown, guard Derrick White and a draft pick to the Nets for Durant, sources said. The proposal was rejected, and Brooklyn has asked Boston — in any proposal — to include Brown, Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Smart, draft picks and potentially one more rotation player, those sources added.

there’s obviously something funky going on here, woj posted his story at like 2 am last night so he must’ve gotten word that shams had gotten leaked the same info. the woj story was absolutely nothing — the celtics are talking to the nets but aren’t closer to a deal than any other team. ok?

if jaylen brown was actually on the table for KD that trade would already be done imo. there’s no way the nets are doing better than that if what they want back is an established player
