Nets' Kevin Durant Trade Philosophy Revealed

August 15, 2022

Kevin Durant trade talks have been a slow burn.

Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets are on their way to a divorce. Unfortunately for Durant, the Nets are taking their time when it comes to trading him. KD is one of the best players in the history of the league, which means he will yield a very large return for the Nets. Brooklyn knows this trade can ruin their future if they don't get it right, and as a result, they are taking their time and are being quite stingy when it comes to the offers they've received. 

According to Brian Windhorst of ESPN, the Brooklyn Nets are taking their sweet time with this deal, and they don't have a lot of motivation to get it done right now. This news comes amid reports that Durant would actually hold out from training camp if a deal isn't done. It's clearly a messy situation for the Nets, but they are trying to take back control of their franchise, by any means necessary.



Per Windhorst:



The Nets are better off trading KD and ripping off the bandaid. With that being said, Joe Tsai wants to show the rest of the league that he knows how to run a franchise, and thus we are left with a power struggle that the NBA has never quite seen before.
