Goodbye the Sun! Goodbye Booker! Durant s trading chips are exposed, netizens: bargain price

NBA playoffs are in full swing, but rumors about Durant's trade have attracted the attention of many media and fans. For the Suns, this season was obviously a failure. They only achieved a record of 36 wins and 46 losses in the regular season, and eventually missed the playoffs and playoffs in the fierce Western Conference competition. This result undoubtedly made it difficult for the team's management and fans to accept.

It has to be admitted that the Suns have the strongest starting lineup in the league today - the super three-team combination of Durant + Booker + Bill. However, they failed to produce good chemical reactions. Coupled with the shortage of salary space, the management can no longer strengthen the team's recruitment. With the combined combination of various unfavorable factors, Durant, who is determined to win the championship, is willing to leave, and the Suns, who are willing to rebuild, also intend to send Durant away. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, the two sides are likely to part ways during the offseason.

According to US media reports, the Rockets intend to pursue Durant in the offseason. Former NBA player Perkins supports the Rockets, believing that the team has obvious shortcomings in shooting and urgently needs a player like Durant with super scoring ability to solve the problem of difficulty in scoring at critical moments.

Perkins also proposed a specific trading plan, suggesting that the Rockets package young players such as Jaylen Green, Cam Whitmore, Jabbarry Smith and some draft picks in exchange for Durant. Although this plan may make the Rockets lose some potential new stars, in the long run, introducing Durant will greatly enhance the team's overall strength and competitiveness.

In addition, US media Ball Don 't Stop also pointed out that the Rockets exposed the lack of a final decision in the critical moment in the playoffs, and Durant was able to make up for this shortcoming. If Durant can join, his combination with Shin Kyung, Van Vleet and Amen Thompson will be extremely competitive and is expected to set off a new storm in the Western Conference.

Looking back at the relationship between the Rockets and Durant, the two sides have always had a certain degree of common interest in cooperation. Earlier, according to well-known journalist Shams, if the Rockets could go far in the playoffs, they might choose to maintain their existing core lineup; but if they were eliminated early, the team's management is likely to reconsider the team's future plans, and Durant will undoubtedly become one of their focus. Now, the Rockets were eliminated from the Warriors in the first round, which will undoubtedly make the Rockets management further consider introducing Durant.

In addition, judging from the odds of Durant's next house announced by the gambling website, the Rockets led the list with an odds of +120, with the Warriors and the Spurs tied for second place, with an odds of +325. This odds also reflect the outside world's high expectations for Durant to join the Rockets.

It is worth mentioning that Durant also talked about the Rockets in an interview with the All-Star Weekend. He said he has been paying close attention to the young team because this talented team reminds him of the Thunder he once played for.

To sum up, Durant's fate with the Suns seems to be coming to an end, and the Rockets are expected to be his next stop. If this transaction is set, it will have a profound impact on the alliance structure. So, what do you think about the possible deal between Durant and the Rockets?
