I think I would take the Suns package in this scenario. 3 or 4 firsts would mean a first round pick every other year until 2027 or 2029, right? It seems like the Heat never have a bad record even when star players leave, so I'd rather gamble on the Suns being really bad in the future.
One thing to consider is Ben Simmons. The fit with the new players. I would take the Heat offer honestly

good. Get Durant out of the East. Go to Phoenix.

Obviously Durant on a 4 year deal is an insane asset.

just saying though- Durant will be 34 before the season starts and seems to get injured a lot. I think there is more risk here then you would expect on the surface.

Would you give up Bam?

They cant because of something with ben simmons but i wouldn't. The point of getting kd would be to have a big 3 of jimmy, kd, and bam. Waste of time imo if you are including one of them

Suns wouldn't blow it up.

But, everyone minus Book?

Hell yeah....lol

I'd take Kyrie to get off Paul's deal.

Ayton, Mikal, Paul four 1sts for Durant.....and Kyrie.

I almost said Simmons.

But, they can probably get more for him than Kyrie in a solo deal.
I think KD said he wants out because Irving opted in.

Sixers are coming with Harris Thybulle Maxey and picks. Not sure anybody else can do anything better without it becoming a place KD doesn’t want to go.

1 in a million chance, but the Warriors would have to deal Draymond, right? I can't see a Dray-KD reunion working.
They could do it with Wiggins, Moody, Kuminga, Wiseman, and a couple firsts. Dray and KD would be fine, we tend to overdramatize player conflicts from our vantage point.

Won't happen though, and I think in the end I wouldn't want it to. I like what they are doing I want to see it play out, see if they can Spurs this and keep contending with a new wave of youngsters taking over for the big 3.

Played in just 90 games the last 2 years.

It's more that the Nets have made it clear that they are dealing Kyrie. If they had said to KD no we want to run it back maybe he stays. But who knows in the end. And so what, this is a big reason why the NBA is awesome.

Yeah, just heard it on ESPN.

Can't have 2 guys you traded for with 5 year designated extensions on the roster at the same time.

I think KD staying in the East is better for everyone....

Somebody said he wants Phoenix.

I was thinking Philly because KD didn't have an issue with Harden. He played, Irving didn't.

Or maybe KD is tired of Irving's BS.

Can't happen with Simmons on the roster because of the 5 yr extension rules.

He'd have to be dealt first.
