As a Nets fan, I was quite content to turn the page on the calendar with Kevin Durant still listed on Brooklyn’s roster. The organization has not found a deal for their superstar forward, who reportedly requested a trade during a meeting with Nets owner Joseph Tsai a month ago, to their liking, which should be their posture for however long it takes.
I'm a HUGE fan of Tim Grover. "Your mind has to be stronger than your feelings. Think about every poor decision you've made in life... they're was more emotion involve than there was mind."
Did Durant make an emotion mistake? The players he wanted (Irving, Jordan, Harden) were unreliable. The players that were here (D'Angelo Russell, Caris LeVert, Spencer Dinwiddie, Jarrett Allen, RHJ) would've yielded better results.
The man he ordered around put together this team. Perhaps Sean Marks is incapable of building a winner around Durant...
Who would construct a roster where the skinny Durant is asked to play Center? Who would construct a roster where the light in the ass Durant plays Power-Forward? Who would construct a roster where your best player, soneone that is a bit fragile, does a lot of the dirty work? Sean Marks is guilty of poor roster construction.
Up until now, we have no Stretch-5 for Ben Simmons to operate. We have skinny-ass Claxton preparing to play Center instead of his natural Power-Forward position. We have a sophomore who can't shoot and jump very high about to play backup Center. We have Ben Simmons about to play Power-Forward, which is not ideal but okay given the circumstances.
Durant SHOULD be pissed with Sean Marks. I'm pissed he's abandoning the ship he captained for three years. And I hope the Celtics become desperate enough to give us Jaylen Brown, Grant Williams, and Derrick White along with two or three 1sts so that we can move on from Durant. Hopefully, we trade Irving in a 3-way that nets us Myles Turner AND Daniel Theis, along with more draft capital. Then we close the book on this Durant experiment.
Forever.
Durant has now shown the Nets and fans he cannot be trusted to lead this franchise. Do what's best for the team and move them in the best good deal before Durant gets a chance to punish us further by sitting out until he's traded
