Hopelijk blijft het bij geruchten.
Kan het me niet voorstellen. Welke positie moet Durant dan innemen. Green? En het kan zomaar de teamchemistry verneuken.
Het zal blijkbaar ook afhangen van de mate waarin de Thunder een serieuze contender blijven...
HANG TIME BIG CITY — The summer of 2016 has been looked forward to for a while by teams around the NBA. Not only will many teams around the league be flush with spending money thanks to a new television deal, but at least one marquee player will be a free agent: Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant.
While Durant, the 2014 NBA MVP, has stayed mum on his future plans, that hasn’t stopped media speculation. And a new report today from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo’s The Vertical suggests that if Durant does choose to leave Oklahoma City this summer, the leading contender to sign Durant could conceivably create something of a basketball monster.
Writes Wojnarowski…
The Golden State Warriors’ plan of pursuit predates their 2015 championship run, a bold plot to declare the futility of resistance. It isn’t only that the NBA champions are determined to recruit Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant. The truth is that they’re the most intriguing destination to him. If Durant leaves the Thunder, the Warriors are the significant frontrunners to sign him, league sources told The Vertical.
The Warriors already have everything and yet they’re threatening to take more now. Steph Curry. Klay Thompson. Draymond Green. Committed ownership. Bob Myers, the executive of the year. Steve Kerr, a championship coach. Yes, Golden State has everything, including the ability to create the salary-cap space and a belief that Durant’s persona could fit seamlessly – even onto a potential two-time defending champion.
Make no mistake: Durant isn’t close to gone in Oklahoma City – no decision, no leaning, sources said – but the real threats on the summer market are beginning to reveal themselves. Durant is determined to win – to be an immediate championship contender at 27 years old – and that keeps bringing him back to the Warriors should he make the decision to leave Oklahoma City.
Outside of a Thunder championship closing down the process before July 1, there’s a strong expectation that Durant will hit the road, tour campuses and become a recruit again.
The big free agents, they’re forever living one of two things in the months leading into summer: searching for reasons to stay, or searching for reasons to leave. Durant has always been looking for reasons to stay. He adores the Oklahoma City community and holds a fondness for the franchise, but Durant is chasing championships, chasing a legacy.
http://hangtime.blogs.nba(...)er/?ls=iref:nbahpt6dSommige reacties van lezers zijn precies zoals jij reageert overigens, men denkt dat ie eerder in de weg zal lopen en de teamchemistry om zeep zal helpen, en men ziet het al helemaal niet zitten om bv iemand als Barnes er voor op te geven, wat ik heel goed kan begrijpen. Van de andere kant...het is en blijft natuurlijk wel een complete speler, mits ie heel blijft.
Much like down syndrom, red hair is a genetic mutation, and it occurs when a human has unprotected sex with a clown.
