How Is THIS Happening AGAIN?!

The Kevin Durant drama gets even crazier as both Marc Spears from ESPN and Marcus Thompson from the Athletic write that the Warriors superstars have been in communication with KD and a potential comeback to Golden State for him has been mentioned.
Wait what?! Let’s go through all the details and explain everything. What up everybody, my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it.
Ok so we already know that Brooklyn is asking for an All star level player and multiple young prospects. Golden State has a lot of young players with tremendous potential in Poole, Kuminga, Moody, and even Wiseman who’s still a mystery box at this point.
Also, the value of Andrew Wiggins right now is the highest that’s ever been, so he could as well be thrown into this deal.
But does it make sense to do it? Poole developed into a blistering hot scorer, putting up 18.5 points per game last season, Kuminga and Moody both showed flashes of being great 2 way players even in the limited time that they got last season.
This is a great young core that could help the aging core of Steph, Klay and Draymond bring this team a few more championships.
So then this report looks strange.
The Warriors superstars have been in conversations with Durant. In addition to catching up, the Hall of Fame-bound peers did entertain the idea of a reunion.
You can pause the video to go through the entire paragraph, but why would they swap their bright future for 2-3 years of who knows what type of circus with a 34 year old KD?

Well, someone from the Warriors revealed to the Athletic the real reason for that: Because it’s Kevin freaking Durant.
A once in a generation type of offensive player and we saw how unstoppable that team was.
So according to people in the Golden State organization, the guys are open to having Durant back.
Which is interesting to hear because Draymond and KD have had a few back and forth sneaky jabs. Whether it’s on a podcast
And there was also this petty exchange on twitter where Durant tweeted after game 1 of the finals which Golden State lost, and then check the date, Green remembered and waited for almost 2 weeks to tweet those same exact words back after he won the title.
This is just the tip of the iceberg of the slight back and forth between the 2 sides ever since KD left, but hey, I guess winning heals everything.
To me however this makes the least sense for Durant himself. He couldn’t win in Oklahoma, then joined the Warriors in a move that’s probably the most scrutinized in NBA history, and got his wish fulfilled regardless. He won 2 championships and 2 finals MVP’s, but as he said it himself, it didn’t feel good. He wasn’t happy.
So from there to go to Brooklyn ending up in a debacle, and to once again come to Golden State? That’s ridiculous.
And how would it feel to win yet another championship on this superteam that’s not going to be acknowledged by the critics? What would that do to his legacy?
I don’t really care about legacy to be honest, and those top 10 debates on ESPN are beyond insane.
MAD DOG BOB COUSY CLIP
But as we know Durant is one of the more sensitive when it comes to criticism and how he’s perceived, so to do a full replay of what happened the last time- after already admitting how that made him feel- to me that’s unthinkable. So we’re all waiting to see if Kevin Durant is about to do the unthinkable.
Can you imagine this team being formed once again? Do you think they win the title by default? Let me know in the comments. That’s it for now, subscribe and talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
