Are the Phoenix Suns Destined To Trade Kevin Durant This Offseason?

NBA insiders believe the Phoenix Suns are for sure trading Kevin Durant this summer, but does it have to be that way?

Brendon Kleen breaks down what’s holding the Suns back from fixing their relationship with KD, what has to happen for the Suns to make the play-in, and the difference between mistakes and being misguided since Mat Ishbia bought the team.

    Bob Myers will not take this job….there is nothing here to build on, it’s rebuild time this offseason

    No draft picks, free agents are minimal in this generation, too stubborn too stubborn to trade Booker, Durant will age more and you want to hang on to him….Sell Low, Buy High

  2. @SithLordCarterII

    The return is going to be disappointing. KD has to realize the reason he hasn’t been successful in these stops is because he gets traded to these destinations and in order for those trades to happen, the target team is gutted. He shouldn’t extend his contract, and sign somewhere else as a FA in 26

  6. @ki2726

    I need four unprotected first round picks and two young all stars in any KD trade. Yes he’s older but he’s still a top-5 player and transcendent talent.

  7. @michaelpierre208

    Trading the best player on the team means Bradley Beal has to go also
    Not gonna be a good idea to keep Beal because that man is trash

  10. @joshuakam5841

    The question is, if you trade Durant.. How do you convince Booker that this team can contend?

    We have no assets and the Bradley Beal contract is goes through the end of 2027… When Dbook will be 31

  11. @teddynitro2733

    It doesn't matter what we do with KD until we get rid of Beal. When does his contract expire, 2026-27? Because no-one wants him and even if they did, he's not leaving anyway with his clause, he's just enjoying semi-retirement at this point getting 50+ mil a year. Crazy.

  13. @JamesDonlan-jv8bm

    Great podcast Brendon KD looks like he still has a Tonleft in the Tank like Shams said his splits are as good as ever, they need to build around he and Book Winning Pieces.👏🏀

  17. @nunyabusiness3666

    I think it's time to go nuclear on Beal trade. Ask him to pick a team he wants to go to and take anything for him.
    Get out from under it.
    Then deal KD. I love KD, but it didn't work.
    There are guys on the team I love and others I don't, but man, it just isn't working…..

  18. @sirbarles4808

    But what is Bob Myers suposed to do? Magically disappear Beal's contract? In last two seasons Suns rotated 28 different players of all archetypes and positions arond 'big' 3 and it never worked… 'Big' 3 is paid 150 mln USD its extremely difficult to put an optimal roster around them. And next year they will be paid 160 mln, so it's only gonna get worse…. It has been proven that this 'big' 3 is too chunky to make use of it.
    The only way to be able to change something substantially is to trade Booker and build around KD and Beal. Good luck with that. Because of both fans outrage and age/health issues of your two top players.
    Trade KD. Blow it up. Or keep suffering.

  19. @braulioquinonez

    Can we buy out Beal and stretch out the money for a few years? I know it’s a lot of money but it’s probably for the best.
