Kevin Durant's Final Chapter Is Inevitable…

- Kevin Durant might be getting traded this summer after the Phoenix Suns big 3 was absolute disaster, and I think that KD might be returning to the OKC Thunder, although rumours about Kevin Durant being traded to the Houston Rockets are gaining traction.

KD winning a championship in okc would go so hard
Kd winning a chip for the suns >>>>
fr
Unfortunately it probably won't happen. Okc is set, and bringing him in would fracture the chemistry and payroll. He got his two Golden State rings to enjoy.....
We don’t want kd back
@@rayval1295 you not even on the team, anyone would like a Kd on his team. You are a selfish fake fan who puts his own needs above the teams
KD got every trade he asked for, forced his way out of the nets immediately after signing a huge contract with them just to go to suns, he gets what he deserves, can play for them until he retires and I hope they're ass every year.
you're gonna have to hold this L when he joins okc
@@alif.6266That's not going to happen. Ever.
@@TheJudgementofDog leaving a comment so I can find this is in September
KD did do some bad things but only on the business side of things. I still believe he deserves some closure to his career instead of just rotting away on this dogshit team.
@@ivanthaboi You mean the team he chose to go to? He deserves what he's chosen.
As a Warriors fan who lives right outside the bay area, KD was never not respected by the fans. It was the media that didn't give him credit. KD wasn't seeing the appreciation posts by random people on Twitter but he saw all the bad takes and negative headlines from actual media platforms and personalities.
KD deserves his number 35 on GSW he is 2 time FINALS MVP there
Facts 💯
Probably shouldn’t be.
Yeah it’s not happening lol, Just Phil tweeted abt KD coming back to OKC to redeem his legacy and KD flamed him 😂
damn i was just watching all ur vids and then u post a new one lol
Same 😂
sounds sad.
@@Bluebirdfalling hush
Love this channel more than any for basketball news. Delighted the Ball brothers haven't been a topic this year 😅
As a okc fan and kd being my favorite player it would be amazing to see
Patiently waiting for Hornets content
What hornets content
KD to the Magic or Wolves would be the best bet for both teams. Wolves trading KAT or Magic trading some of their guards.
I think Phoenix blew their load early and should have trusted Booker. At the time, Imo Booker was not even at his peak and the combination of Booker + Durant stymies Booker’s development as a first option.
Booker will never win as a first option, he’s Jaylen brown with less defense
@@yopp2k and way more offense when he is given the opportunity.
Ayo
two soft superstars
Need a towel?
great take
Absolutely Not We Already Have Shai Gilgeous-Alexander And Chet Holmgren, We Don’t Need Kd
My Opinion Only I would LOVE for KD to Return to Warriors with Steph,Klay, and DG🔥🔥😎🤘🤘🙏🙏🙏!!
At this point kd need to say sorry to bron and just play with him 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
Bron has been declining as well and got his own situation with the lakers
Ggs KD 😢
Durant is a warrior legend regardless of what people say 🙌💯🔥
KD 😞
Tbh this is well deserved Criticism but i wouldnt write off the Suns after 1 season :/ like lets be fr they started the season dealing with injuries & chose to start winning late in the season which got them a 6th seed spot in a rough Western conference against a Great TimberWolves team who beat the defending champs nd made it to the conf finals . All im saying suns just need a True PG a Solid Rebounding BIG nd some depth on the bench nd they easily a top 3 seed in the west ! Look at all the past champs they didnt get to be champions off the rip in 1 year smh ! Lets see how this team develops in a year or 2 💯
Boston literally has a big 3 in the finals(JT,JB and KP) with maybe even big 4 with Jrue being considered for finals MVP
OKC is so close to the team they need. If they get iHart or Claxton in free agency, maybe Drummond too as a backup big and vet, and then cash in some of these picks and young guys who aren’t impacting the team for an upgrade in Giddey’s spot. Whether that’s a consistent 3&D wing or a floor spacing scorer to be the second option. There’s so many options but the best are very clearly KD, PG, Lauri, or Mikal. At least one of them will be gettable. If they were looking for another roleplayer to go with that since they easily have the assets and the cap space, they also need to add more 3pt shooting.
DKM is a BEAST! Great job. I agree w/ you.
KD isn't welcome back to OKC if you ask me. Was truly invested in his belief at first and then he showed his true colors. Gave up in the conference finals to leave for that exact team. Truly not surprised he brought this whole "woke" stuff into play. Thunder have a bright future and we don't need the cloud he brings.
Nah you wrong
@@henryslatt9041 that is just my opinion. When he left it felt worse than being cheated on. Turned that page and don't want to give him the pleasure of winning again and then take credit
@@henryslatt9041no he’s right lol. I was born and raised in Oklahoma, seen all the ups and downs of Thunder basketball firsthand. When KD left the way he did, he proved what kind of person he was. Then his team hopping after his stint in GS, showed who he really was as a basketball player. We don’t want any part of that. There is no room in OKC’s lineup for him, we have the best young team in the NBA. there will never be a KD redemption story, because he doesn’t deserve one
Another GM voicing his opinion lol
Just a fan who's been going to NBA games since katrina
Warriors fan since 2011 here 🙋🏾♂️ Durant's time as a Warrior definitely doesn't get downplayed 🚫 The fact of the matter is Durant sat at their table. Curry won before and after Durant.
I don't think OKC needs KD that much, specially for the impact he is gonna have in the salary cap. OKC has a great team but they've got a hole in their roster. What they're lacking the most right now is bruising bigs, meanin size that can help Chet protect the paint, and can absorb physical teams that exploit their smaller less physical team. Chet is very good defensively, but we've seen against teams with size and strength that OKC crumbles, like the Mavs that eliminated them in the 2nd round, or the Lakers that despite being a "struggling" team half the season beat OKC with ease during the regular season.
KD brings size, yes. He brings the scoring punch and star quality that is inherent to him, but outside of his size and some solid defence, what you expect when paying what KD is making is not what OKC really needs right now to take them over the hump. He can bring a lot offensively of course, but OKC are clicking very well on that side, they jave good chemistry and KD skillset would just be an overlap with Chet, and a bit SGA, and J Williams. I think OKC is better investing in and developing they're young core, than throwing a star into the mix that is going to limit their ability to make moves due to salary capital
wrong on the draft picks, they own every other year, as per the Stepien Rule...you really should research what you report....lol
The only thing that can save his legacy fr is him leading a team to a championship. His rings will always have an asterisk next to them for jumping on a team that won before and after him
I still wouldn’t give KD credit if he came back and won a championship in OKC. I mean hell why should he get the credit when that team is beyond stacked already
Come back to the Bay Bay KD
05:59 "Devin Booker want's to be a neck" lol
Durant to the clippers
KD deserves to get shit for going to the warriors but why doesn't Curry, Klay, and Draymond get no where near as much criticism for recruiting him? They couldn't beat LeBron and the Cavs and instead of trying to get better with their core group of guys, they go begging KD to bail them out. Then they took him for granted and acted like they didn't need him after all
Make a tons of sense the only trade that make sense is 💯
They need to kd back to golden state and draymond needs to suck it up
he's a clipper or warrior
As an OKC fan we don't want him back
I think. OKC needs a veteran player with experience, I just want someone who can carry the load off SGA
I think Trade for KD to OKC for like four first round picks and Giddey and Also sign Russ in free agency
I mean come on you know if this is true then kd will hold a press conference and give a public emotional apology and the organization would bring him back for the rest of his career. 😂
I don't see why people don't see that Kd on OKC would be the perfect fit.
He costs too much
taking someone who is old and expensive when they have the resources to both plan for the future and win in a couple years is ridiculous
@@user-ze3sg6ix1uthey can literally send 5 of their future draft picks lmao
Toooo much to give up
KD doesn’t deserve the hate he’s an insanely good player one of the greatest
Nobody in their right mind debates if Miami should retire his jersey.
People need to stop saying this the only people think that this would be a happy ending are people that don't live in Oklahoma. He's not the best to put on a OKC jersey I put Westbrook above him and soon I'll put SGA above him
What do you mean if KD goes then booker leaves too ?
All teams use KD to scare their stars out of leaving... " they will hate you"
Okc mind as well try to grab bol bol to, in their system I think he could be productive
The biggest let down for this much talent
Even if he does go back to OKC and win a championship, the fans won't respect him because the team as already good. The reason Lebron was able to clear his name with the Cavs was because they we're trash and he pieced together a championship team.
This man sound goofy saying u not the #1😂😂
Okc is really playing mynba in real life😂
jamal murray not an official all star but lets be real he’s an all star caliber player
Of course KD would go back there now that it’s built up again 😂
I heard a rumor lebron might go to okc too
he only had one year. let them run a little. I don't think they are givin them enough time. if they let them run it back, I bet they can get out the 1st round and then everyone is gonna be sweating them. People act like The Pelicans, The Clippers with MVP James Harden, MVP Russell Westbrook, 2 time ring winner Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. All Ringless Accept Kawhi, The Lakers, Jimmy Butler and the Heat, Joel Embiid and the sixers, Giannis and Damian Lillard and the so called stacked Bucks LOL and the Magic (Understandable) all got smacked out of the 1st round too. At least KD Got 2 Rings & 2 Final Mvp's which he earned over the Hometown hero cause Stephen Curry kept lookin at KD like, save me, I can't get the ball in the hole. So Let's not insult the assasin we all know as Kevin Durant. Let's be super honest and admit Russell Westbrick aka Captain Eratic didn't cost KD a ring or 2. Pluys He single Handedly almost took the nets to the final and kept his end of the Brooklyn Bargain while Kyrie and Harden flaked
I don’t think Kd is a top 15 player, nice mid range game though, if he never busted his Achilles this might be a different story.
kd is wat his nick name says he EASY MONEY SNIPER . a hired gun
OKC doesn't want him back so this is not happening.
please bro please replace that music the loop is torture
This lineup would beat Boston next year
G Shia Gilgeous-Alexander
G Jalen Williams
F Luguenz Dort
F Kevin Durant Trade KD for 4 1st RD picks and Josh Giddey
C Chet Holmgren
bench
G Cason Wallace
G Isaiah Joe
F Aaron Wiggins
F Ousman Dieng
C Kyle Filipkowski 12th PIck 04
Way way way way way way way way too much for kd. 5 players plus 4-5 1st rounders? You’re insane.
Durant to Miami…
I love to see Kevin Durant back in the Oklahoma City Thunder again
The disrespect Westbrook is the best player OKC has ever had period loyal to the soil period
When KD was on OKC, he knocked LeBron for going to Miami to create a super team. Then, he went and did the same thing a few years later. He's a clown.
Trade for KD
Sign Rus to vet minimum to come of the bench
Win the chip
If this happens it will be fire
You arr making the same flawed statement as everyone else.
Big 3 is not dead at all man u just have to draft and pay your big 3, you cant trade you're entire team for any player.
Everyteam has a big 3 just about as in 3 players they are paying max or close to max even denver with joker Jamal gordon and mpj. Mpj is on a max joker is on a max and Jamal and gordon are close to max. The key is you jave to pay the right players the right money have them fit together and hold onto your future assets to keep getting young cheap talent. The issue for denver as example is they have joker best player in the world bet...but their second max is mpj who on this team plays basically as their 4th option which severely limited their ability to fill out the roster. You can't tell me that if you got rid of mpj contract and had 2 to 3 role players vet role players instead thay they would not have been better.
Same with the thunder in the future man chet jdub and Shai are all gonna be max players so thats a big 3. Just depends on how good they actually are when you are paying them the max.
He should go the spurs or join sacramento kings
Go Back To Warriors all Squad Needs u KD what are u doing?
Not the driver.
I’m from Indiana, and I love KD so much. He is one of my favorite players ever and I hate it when I see hate towards him
Trade booker in a sign and trade for O.G Mitchell Robinson and 3 first round picks
Come back to Brooklyn and bring book with you it was that crazy ass kyrie that ruined everything a title in Brooklyn would be bigger than Lebron Cleveland ring and dirks 2011 ring
think KDs jersey should obviously be retired in OKC, shouldn’t be a debate. he’s the franchises all time best player & will be for the foreseeable future. KD only played 3 seasons in GSW but 2 rings means something. Vince has his jersey retired in Brooklyn & cause of that I think it only makes sense for KD to be retired in GSW.
Josh giddey + Gordon Hayward + picks.
The Knicks have TWO all-stars. Brunson and Randle.
randle was injured
KD has more recognition being on Golden State then LeBron has anywhere no one cares about LeBron in America as I can see from your accent you must pay attention to the articles his investors post no one likes him over here
The suns will win the entire thing next year
Hell yeah
This video is brought to you by Kevin Durant.
KD... 1 Dimensional scorer... That's the point I have to leave. Great video up until that nonsense though.
In 2024 he is yes
@@DKM_Sports Lol. Okay. Basketballs' 1st ever 1 dimensional All-Star that still shoots 90-50-40. Crazy.
Okc has so many picks they need to throw all those picks to suns and get durant. Sign some good role players during the off season and have Beal and booker run the team and maybe with durants salary gone they can sign someone of value.
Durant should retire in OKC
KD is respected!Knock it off!He does have a fanbase
The worst video you have ever made, Warriors fans love KD, OKC will retire Durant's Jersey. The Suns made bad moves and that's why Durant's in an unenviable situation. If Durant goes to the Sixers, Knicks, Thunder they can definitely make a championship run.
Trade Dort!
*Yawwwwwwwn* make some finals content
Denver would never pick up Bradley Beal lmaooo
Beal is sorta a joke.
@@Senzel100 he fr a joke
Way way way way way way way way too much for kd. 5 players plus 4-5 1st rounders? You’re insane.
KD never had any shred of loyalty towards OKC and especially to the ownership group and Sam Presti. He's far more attached to Seattle - the place he made his NBA debut. If there's a place where KD would like to bookend his career - a reborn Seattle SuperSonics (if the NBA ever decides to right the wrong) in the next few years would be his dream choice. Even if that means he won't be in a contention for a championship, IMO he would have no problem sacrificing his last opportunity to finish his career where it started - wearing a green uniform with SONICS wordmark on it.
Would KD like to be a Thunder again? Maybe. Does anyone think Presti would give up much to get him? Nope. This fantasy makes for fun conversation but dude is too expensive for most teams to want any part of trading for him. These days 35 ain't too old to play high level NBA ball but KD is owed $55 million two years from now when he will be 37. OKC ain't trying to pay him all that
Presti has loads of resources to burn but will he? Nope
Yeah there's 0 reason for OKC to want KD, and unlike LeBron in Cleveland, KD has no obligation to try to fix anything in OKC or win them a chip
@@stevens1-o7s KD needs OKC right now much more than they need him
@@I.am_Groot alr lil kid okc is very deep with a lot of picks they can give that up for kd easy and he fits in the roster to well also even after kd retiers the okc players will all be in there prime and still be championchip contenders
We can absolutely afford him the next 2 years wdym
Are you kidding? Warriors fans love KD. They don't love him like they love Steph, but they don't love *anyone* like they love Steph. Everyone knows he's going to get his jersey retired there (confirmed years ago, no new players are allowed his number since he left).
As long as Draymond Green didn’t hurt his feelings again…
But a return is unlikely because warriors are rebuilding
His Warriors jersey may get retired, as long as Draymond Green didn’t hurt his feelings again
@@Mathieu-LuLunah F rebuilding. Honor the franchise goat and try to win until Curry's wheels fall off.
Pffff no we don’t…
My boy KD just needs a young team around him
Why would a boy need a young team? Make that make sense
Because it works
KD’s only “good” moves left are:
Stay
OKC
Timely Seattle expansion team
Anything else will almost certainly detract from his legacy. These are the only 3 situations where anybody would ever be convinced he might actually be happy.
Knicks?
On the deadline when they brought Durant in, I was hoping the headline would read Ayton, Crowder, and picks. But of course it was Bridges, Johnson, Crowder, and the picks. Ishbia was over eager to make a drastic move and was blinded by Ayton being a first overall pick. It was such a stupid decision to opt to keep him over the 2 clearly better wings. But it is what it is. I think KD gets moved this off season, the Suns land a bunch of picks to restore that issue and the players they bring on combined with Booker and Beal will be competitive enough to make the playoffs. If they make the playoffs, anything can happen. I just want competitive basketball.
If Im OKC, I wouldnt touch KD with a vet minimum contract....OKC is set for the future with the team they got & all those future 1st rd pick they holding in the bacl pocket
Honestly…. As a thunder fan I’d much rather have someone like Al horford, or decent sized center/pf that can shoot. We struggled on the boards in the playoffs and getting kd wouldn’t fix that, plus it just doesn’t make sense logically to have kd, and sga on the same team.
OKC didn’t decide to give up & rebuild. The players requested exits. PG demanded a trade & so did Russ.
had a conversation like this recently looks like the obvious move for all party's and the only reason i can see they made the hayward trade to get cap for a trade for the true prize if this run didn't work out
Chris Paul is all of phoenix’s bench they already traded everyone good for kd
Watch a team like SAC or Orlando or even Indiana get KD😂
It’s not going to happen,
1) no one in OKC would want him back
2) he would ruin what the OKC are trying to go for
3) if they were to get someone like him it would be Lauri, he cost less, puts up similar stats with less minutes, will have a longer career left, and is a better rebounder.
4) he would cost waaaay to much
5) if any thunderer were to come back it would be Russ, he’s cheaper and people would actually want to see him win a ring on the thunder
KD is not coming back, I do think his jersey will be retired in OKC tho
This would be KD’s best move. LeBron went from villain to hero when he returned to the Cavs and win a championship. KD could do the same.
