Kevin Durant is the wrong Kevin to have your eyes out for. #TranTrain
Hear me out:
As currently constructed, I don't see that PHX team as a true championship contender. Yes they have some big names on paper but I don't think they have the money or picks to get that other key piece that they need. With that being said, I think KD will realize this and at some point, force his way off yet, another team. Where do the Spurs come in? Well obviously we have the draft picks and cash to bring in a KD first off. PHX need picks. Also with KD going to college at Texas, he's already somewhat familiar with the landscape. I don't see KD as the type who really cares what market he plays in. Next he speaks highly of Coach Pop and enjoyed playing for him on team USA. But the thing that gives me the most hope is Wemby. Every interview I've seen KD talk about Wemby, it's like he's gleaming. Like to me, he has that look like he can really see himself playing with him because he sees the potential. He also clearly sees that we need help. This is and will be Wemby's team but KD is the type who doesn't mind that, as we've seen with other teams. Above all, he just wants to ball! Even at this age, he's having one of his best season's and I don't see him falling off the cliff anytime soon, mainly because of his playing style. It may be a long shot and I definitely don't think it'll happen this year. But next year, around the trade deadline, if PHX is still looking like the team they are now, I think we may have a shot.

We can get both.
In the salary cap era? Impossible.
Wemby wouldn't be up for his max deal until 3 more years. Pretty sure KD would be considering retirement at that point, which is why it would be important to get him now while Wemby is on his rookie deal.
I know this sounds crazy but I’d rather have TOSB Lebron or TOSBron.
that championship knowledge, and active leadership would be instrumental to building us back to where we need to be. His abilities to get a ton out of role players is also fantastic.
I like him at Bodyguard, but can he play??
Been saying this for a while tbh. In 2-3 years, IF the Spurs draft and develop well and actually put a team around Wemby, I think KD will be a veteran piece we try to sign. Just makes a lot of sense for both parties.
Spurs getting washed superstars years after their prime
Name something more iconic
Keep that bandwaggoning phuck away.
Do not besmirch the foundation that Timmy Duncan laid any further then Granpa has.
At some point the Spurs absolutely must acquire Duncan Robinson. It's just too good.
okc tbh. he’d get a small amount of redemption helping that team win a le.
especially if that franchise has moved back to seattle.
We'll take him too.
We'll take him too.
They already will have to lose some of their top guys now when it's time to extend them (*Shai, Holgrem, Giddey, Jalen.*) They won't have the money.
While agree with this, KD is statistically having one of his best years ever. I'm trying to see what makes you think he's about to fall off a cliff next year? His style of play will allow him to play like this for at least another 3 years I believe.
He's not banging bodies in the post, he's a finesse guy who doesn't have a lot of elbows raining down on his eye sockets at his height. This isn't news though, he's still a top shelf guy, top shelf money.
I mean it only makes sense. He'll be an excellent fit for the PnR with Wemby. Plus the inside play of Wemby and his outside shooting would be unstoppable.
By then it will be the corpse of KD
Once a little bit of that speeds gone the contests will be much better on him and he'll fall off. Similar to Klay
Difference between him and Klay is not even close. Klay need screens while KD can create his own space and get just about any shot he wants. Plus KD can shoot over just about any player in the NBA, so he can afford to lose a little speed or quickness and have his game not suffer much.
If the Spurs draft or sign undrafted Bronny this would happen
Why would he go here to play for a senile; out of touch Pop?
