I haven’t seen the latest rumor I guess. I’m more on board with trading a one year rental (Randle) for a better one year rental (KD) and I’d be willing to pay DDV and 31 for the upgrade. I’m not willing to pay 120 or anywhere close to that for another 2 years. Nope.WildWolf2813 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 11, 2025 11:03 pmI'd call BS on flexibility if we traded KAT's deal only to turn around and trade for a 37 year old and give him a 2 year $120 mil extension.D-Loser25 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 11, 2025 10:59 pmYeah, hopefully just a rumor. I’d be fine with Randle, DDV and 31 for Durant, but anything beyond that, I’ll pass.KG4Ever wrote: ↑Wed Jun 11, 2025 10:35 pm So TC who lauded the big combo of KAT and Rudy might bail on both. Just terrible roster management by TC. I know some of you are impressed with TC, but to me he's a fkkin idiot terrorist. Now, he apparently wants to get KD so bad, he's willing to throw anyone not named Ant, Jaden or Naz away to get a geriatric rental who has a history of leg and ankle injuries. Just not a sound roster construction method.
I was very skeptical on all of TC trades to date, and he’s proven to me that he knows his stuff. Gobert has worked out very well. Getting off of the Kat contract while getting 17 and DDV along with a solid placeholder for a year or two in Randle has proven to be a smart move. And getting NAW and Conley for DLoser!?!? That was his best move. I can’t really doubt the guy anymore - he’s proven himself to me at least
My theory is that we’ll hear a lot of KD rumors because TC wants Ant to believe we’re doing everything we can to get his guy. Lots of rumors of KD to MN - slim chance it actually happens
