Phoenix Suns Can Get MASSIVE HAUL For Kevin Durant From Rockets, Nets In Three-Team Deal

yeah you got to match salaries but you still you keep in in addition to that so your starting lineup going into next season is Okay you have another trade Stephen uh a similar return but some some different teams here so the template is very clear in terms of the return for the Suns two of the team well one of the teams involved here obviously two if you’re including the Suns just a different team in Texas let’s look at the Houston Rockets you see the template for what the Suns are getting in Claxton and Johnson we don’t need to rehash that they would be getting Tari Een in this who I think fits very well defensively in ways different from the ways that Sohan would fit with the Suns but would still provide a similar impact a little bit more perimeter oriented than front court oriented but do you think that those three would be a really good front court next to Book Tam and Claxton they could all play together too 1,000% yep gives you all the versatility you want on offense and defense in addition to that also gives you blue collar guys three through five all three of them um Houston gets obviously Kevin Durant Noah Clowny Dariq Whitehead as well as the number 52 pick from the Suns so it’ll be a second round swap that the Suns are getting into with the Rockets here and then Brooklyn will be getting Jaylen Green Jabari Smith Jr Reed Shepard Jo Landell and the number 10 pick i mentioned them wanting to punch up to get into the number 10 that’s exactly what will be going on here you know I like it no nobody is is giving up a top five pick obviously because you you don’t have it yeah uh the the Nets have two top 10 picks then at at eight and at 10 the Rockets are are getting KD for Tari E i guess you’re giving up you know you’re giving up Jabari as well which I know they don’t they don’t love that might be a little too much value going out from from Houston’s end this is a caveat I wanted to get to i hope you brought it up so looming with the Rockets they pushed back the deadline for the extension talks with um Fred Van Vleet obviously if you get Kevin Durant and you’re trading away Jaylen Green you want to keep Fred Van Vleet around you now have put yourself in a position capwise to where you can extend Fred Van Vleet still have a little bit of extra money left over to do what you need to as far as transactions to fill out the rest of your main rotation and it gives you a little bit more roster flexibility there so the Rockets clean their books they get the player that they’re targeting most in terms of the best player on the market that’s available that’s not a free agent and they also put themselves in position to extend Fred Van Vleet who was the spearheader of the identity that you chose to go forward with i think it’s interesting i I don’t think that Houston would want to part with that much but you got to match the salaries at a certain point though that’s the thing yeah you got to match salaries but you still you keep and in addition to that so your starting lineup going into next season is Fred Vanleet Aman Thompson Dylan Brooks Kevin Durant and you got big fella big Alp yeah I I mean that’s looking for a rotation piece you still have Cam Whitmore who who would be your super i just don’t know if the Rockets are that desperate to make the step now i’m not saying that they can’t in theory be maybe a better team if they they do that you are sacrificing a lot of your future a lot of it but I I do wonder if at the end of the day if the price gets too high Houston just looks at everything and just goes we can wait a year and see who’s on the market next year right we can wait a year and see the next team Kevin Durant wants to go to it’s not going to hit the same when you ain’t got number 10 though it’s true no it’s true 10 but you will have drafted 10 and so then you have that and maybe you hit on 10 and maybe that changes things as well for Houston [Applause] we all sitting like the mayor

The Phoenix Suns are expected to trade Kevin Durant sooner rather than later, and this hypothetical three-team deal between the Houston Rockets and the Brooklyn Nets could be perfect for every team involved. Erik and Stephen take you through the trade and which teams would say no, and yes, to a trade involving, KD, Cam Johnson, Nic Claxton, Jabari Smith Jr. and more!
