00:00We're talking NBA, and there's a lot of guys that are being mentioned before Thursday and that deadline, and KD's one of them, right?
00:10It sounds like KD is one of them, I'm not sure I exactly believe it, but the Suns are allegedly listening to offers for KD.
00:18I mean, you talk about taking a total loss if they trade him, like, they gave up the moon to get KD, there's no way they'd get even a quarter of the return back.
00:30Where he's at at this point, so we shall see. I don't believe it until I see it, when it comes to him.
00:36But the Warriors are allegedly trying to get everybody, Paul George, Kevin Durant, the Warriors need more stars to go with Steph to try to win, allegedly.
00:46So if they, now look, let me ask you this question. Do you believe for one minute, are you buying that they're still, Riley's still trying to do a deal with Phoenix for Butler?
00:56Because if they're making a move for Butler and a flip for Beal, then there's no way they're getting rid of Kevin Durant.
01:03They're going to play, you know, bottom line Booker, instead of Beal, it's going to be, you know, Butler in that spot.
01:10And there's no way they'd get rid of Durant, in my opinion, in that position.
01:14Beal said for the thousandth time last night after the game, he said, I'm not leaving.
01:20I can veto every trade. My family likes it here. We bought, you know, my family, I moved my family out to Phoenix after being in Washington.
01:29I don't want to go anywhere, so I'm not accepting any trade. So Beal ain't leaving Phoenix.
01:33This is, that's great. He's got full veto. So I don't know what they're going to do.
01:38I think the Butler stuff with Phoenix is over. I think there's a better chance Phoenix gets rid of KD than takes in more stars at this point.
01:45I think that's because of the Beals situation.
01:48So do you think that Kevin Durant is going to go back to the Warriors and play with Curry again?
01:57I think it's more possible than it was two days ago. I think it's possible.
02:03It sounds like the Warriors are really trying to put someone else big with Steph, to try to get something else out of Steph before he's done.
02:11So it sounds like they're working on that. A big power struggle in the Western Conference right now.
02:16Do you believe that actually that Draymond Green and Steph Curry and Durant, if they got Durant back, let's say hypothetically, like they get him in a deal by Thursday.
02:30I don't know what they'd give up, but let's face facts. The Suns are, they're so thin it's not even funny.
02:37But for Durant, what would you give up? Wiggins? Kaminga? They'd want Podzemski. Obviously they're going to want something big to get him.
02:48Do you think that they could actually win again a title with Kevin Durant at his age now and Curry at his age and Draymond Green, who I think has precipitously fallen?
03:00I do not believe that he's got, I'm not afraid of Draymond Green anymore. I think he's starting to look like he's going down the other side of the mountain.
03:08I'll tell you this. The Warriors can go get Kevin Durant and Paul George and I don't think they're one of the five or six best teams in the West.
03:17They could get both of those guys and I still don't think they'd be in the top five or six best teams in the Western Conference.
03:24I think you said it perfectly. I think you're talking about a lot of guys who are on the other side of the mountain and you're putting them all together like that.
03:34That don't ever work. Remember when the Lakers tried that, like with Malone? Yeah, you're right.
03:39But took all the guys on the other side of the mountain? Didn't happen. And I think that's what would happen with the Warriors if they tried all that.
