Kevin Durant: Insane. It’s loopy. It’s loopy… I might have by no means although Luka Doncic would get traded at this age, mid-season… The NBA is a wild place, man. If he can get traded then anyone’s up for grabs. For the followers, for someone spectating it’s fairly enjoyable. I do know it’s form of nerve-wracking although, in all probability for Luka, everyone in Dallas, LA, AD… For everyone concerned, I’m positive their heads are spinning proper now.
It’s at all times been a transactional enterprise. Gamers are held to a distinct normal of loyalty, committment to a program, however organizations don’t get held to that very same normal from the surface world: media members, followers. All of us ought to be held to that very same normal. It’s a transactional sport, there’s some huge cash concerned. We shouldn’t be too shocked about trades. It’s a reasonably wild time within the NBA, particularly across the commerce deadline. I do know everyone’s gonna be watching their cellphone for the subsequent week. We obtained 5 days, so I do know everyone’s gonna be following the updates, so it’s loopy.
You’ve gotten Luka and LeBron, Reaves… Then Kyrie, AD, Gafford… So many nice gamers. I simply can’t wait to see it on the ground and listen to from each of them, I do know that first time speaking is gonna be an eventful time.
It’s the character of the game, something can occur, retains you on the sting… I imply, you begin seeing stuff like that and also you, as a company, you would possibly get slightly bit extra braveness to do some stuff if you see one other crew commerce away someone like that… This gotta be the largest commerce I’ve seen since I’ve been within the league or since I’ve been watching the game, that is insane. So yeah, each different crew would possibly get the boldness to say ‘f— it, I’ll commerce my – what I’m saying? I’ll commerce my prime gamers, just a few of my prime gamers, f— it, if this ain’t working… I’m nonetheless shocked.
