Why are teams lowballing the Phoenix Suns in Kevin Durant trade negotiations?
but this part of it is fascinating to me because these other teams are like “Well you said you’re going to trade them this week so we’ve got you we’ll offer you whatever we want you have to take it.” I know that perception’s out there and it might be true we’re going to see how how much the Sun’s self-imposed deadline is like is is you know a thing they can’t move but in reality if you just take a step back and remove all emotion from this and forget the fact that it’s the Suns and that it’s Kevin Durant or whatever you have a team that is on the verge of trading an all-time great player who’s still a great player and that team knows they’re not winning the title next year so really they got nothing to lose if I’m the Suns I’m like you don’t want to make me an offer i’ll just sit here and whatever you know I’ll go out there and if I keep KD and Booker I’ll probably win 45 games next year um if I can move Beal I don’t know but I I got nothing to lose it’s not like the sun’s window is right now

This commentary makes no sense to me, so you’re saying if the Suns keep KD pay him $50+M and he walks or gets traded at 37/38 y/o next summer the Suns didn’t lose anything???
Nothing to lose, really you win 45 games next season and KD becomes a FA and the Suns get nothing!?
They actually do, 25,5 and 5. The chance to recoup some draft capital from the decisions of that imbecile james jones.
Also, once durant leaves for nothing you can't pay anyone enough to come here despite booker. Players want a chance to win, then get paid. Only beal wants money over wins.
You got a rookie coach,GM and a green owner and they’ve handled this as such. No one should care about KD feelings they should have traded him at the deadline last season now teams smell blood in the water
They’re low balling because we’re desperate and inexperienced. Ish is trigger happy and teams are waiting as long as they can. Honestly I could see KD held onto until draft night.
