Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Tell me you’re 70 years old without telling me.
Look I get it. Even I recognize the skill level is greater now than in any other era, but it was much more exciting to be a fan, the rivalry, bravado, and drama. Now days we look at 3 or four teams that even have a shot. Every year from 94 and on in the 90’s I thought the jazz had a shot. How many years since then have they realistically had a shot to win it all? Maybe one year? In 22 years since the end of the 90’s. It was certainly much more fun to be a jazz fan in the 90s.
 
Durant could’ve gone down as a true great, but when you have a chance to team up with a flat-earther that doesn’t love basketball in New York you just have to do it.
With a team that doesn’t have a great fan base and is always little brother.
 
I just don't get it. Feels like he is challenging Tsai (who kinda tried to get tough with Kyrie)... If you are KD do you want your own GM and coach... Who's to say he doesn't ask out again?

This whole thing is weird.

Asking for a trade is one thing. Demanding that the GM be fired is out of line. In any case, if KD wanted this kind of leverage with the Nets, he should have signed a 1-year deal rather than a 4-year max extension.

Also, the reason that the Nets are low on assets is because they emptied them to trade for James Harden, something KD and Kyrie wanted. Then trading James Harden was again something KD wanted.

I think the Nets will trade KD to get rid of him at this point.
 
Depends on how badly you want to win. Assuming your team has a decent team around him, you always have a shot to win. With that said you risk having to deal with all the baggage that comes with KD.

He needs to be load managed during the regular season and then be allowed to take over in the post-season. He really needs the situation he had with the Warriors, though he probably doesn't want to admit it. He's the ultimate luxury addition to an already-solid playoff team.
 
Kevin Durant is trying to undertake “bridge-actions” e.g., mobilizing support within distinct and sometimes competing political venues. (Media, management, ownership, court of public opinion, etc.). Believe me , I served on a US Army tactical psyop team in Central America during the 1980s so I’m well aware of the tactic/strategy.
