I think Brad should go after him. Houston is not good enough to contend with Durant, but I think the Celtics would be. He averaged 26pts/6rebs/5ast with 52/41/87 shooting splits. A JT/KD duo would be lethal. Not sure what it would take to get him, but I?d be willing to give up a first round pick, Maybe two.

A starting 5 of: Pritchard, White, Tatum, Durant, Queta is as good as any in the NBA. Window is short, but at least they would have a chance to contend this coming season.

I have no idea whether HOU would consider trading Durant or not, but the only way that I could see a deal with BOS working would be if we sent out Paul George.  We then would have to take back VanVleet also and maybe send out Hauser.  To that, BOS would likely have to add Gonzalez and a first round pick or two.

Durant and VanVleet would likely be an upgrade on Paul George and Sam Hauser, but I am not sure Durant will be any more durable than George. I really don't see why HOU would do this, if they wanted to trade Durant, why not offer him for Brown?

Durant played in 78 games last year. He has been a durable player since the Achilles injury. The reason they would not want to trade KD for JB is because Brown has more years on his contract, is making the super max and will be looking to extend it. Durant is not.
