Durant s trading is on the verge of the string, and the championship pattern may be completely rewritten. Who will take over this time?

Kevin Durant, maybe he will change teams again.

On June 13, several American media released shocking news: Durant is expected to be traded by the Sun next week, and the transaction is expected to be settled before the end of the finals. ESPN famous reporter Shams even named the Rockets, Timberwolves, Spurs, Knicks, and Heat. These five teams have quietly begun to compete.

This is not a rumor, it is a real storm. Once Durant leaves the team, it is not just a signal of the Suns' reconstruction, but also a possibility of detonating a new round of super team reshuffle in the league.

Durant: The "turbulent life" of superstars

Since leaving the Thunder to join the Warriors in 2016, Durant's life has been destined to be inseparable from "controversy". At that moment, he won the championship and lost the respect of many fans.

After that, he went to the Nets and formed the "Big Three" but failed to end; he turned to the Suns and partnered with Booker and Bill, and was highly expected, but he didn't even find the threshold for the Western Conference Finals. Now, the sun's "super three-core" bubble has been broken, and Durant once again stood at the fork in his career after he was 33 years old.

He can still play, the data is still gorgeous, and the influence is still huge, but "stability" and "team compatibility" have become problems that the traders cannot avoid.

Who wants to be Durant All in?

Shams pointed out five potential next players, but they are not limited to them. We might as well disassemble one by one:

Spurs: the most favored dark horse. With Wenban Yama as the foundation, there is enough capital space, potential, experience and core. If the Spurs can really win KD, it would be like an extra "flying mentor" for the Xiaowen class. Cooperating with Popovich's experienced tactics, the western pattern will be directly torn apart.

Timberwolves: The biggest dark horse in the playoffs this year. With Edwards' passion and Gobert's basket protection, what is missing is the scoring champion at critical moments. KD can provide it all. But the question is, is the Timberwolves willing to tear down the existing balance and replace it with an older star?

Rockets: Young + Space + Ambition. The Rockets management obviously hopes to take the "old leads to new" route. Van Jordan + KD looks like the new version of "Nash + Amare". If Shin Kyung and Smith can grow rapidly, this will be a very lethal configuration.

Knicks: New York's traffic destiny. Durant refused to go to the Nets to go to the Nets, but now the plot is backwards, and the emotional and marketing value of this deal will explode. But the question is also obvious, will Durant's glass attribute repeat the tragedy in Madison Garden?

Heat: The team that can always use the remaining formation to play the finals. Once KD is added, they are the big bosses in the eastern region with hardware upgrades. But what is the Heat willing to give? Is Herro + draft pick enough? Or do you want to bet on Butler + Durant's last sprint?

Durant is a blessing or a disaster, it all depends on the team's mentality

If you think you can win the championship "only Durant" then KD is an accelerator;

If you are still in the running-in period or semi-reconstruction, then KD may be a catalyst or a time bomb.

Durant's problem has never been data, but system adaptation and injury control. Now he is no longer the God of Death who can play 70 games in a year and take the team back at critical moments. It is an elite terminator who needs to be used appropriately and is suitable for playing in a clear system.

So, this is a big bet. If you bet right, it is the champion. If you bet wrong, you may send out the next five years.

What do I think: Not everyone who wins Durant can win the championship

Fans like to regard Durant's arrival as the final puzzle to the championship. Indeed, he could turn an 80-point team into 95 points, but only if that team itself has 80 points, not 50 points.

Durant is a sharp dagger, but if you don't hold it firmly, it can also backfire itself.

The Sun thought so at the beginning, with Booker and Paul, but the result was that they were hindering each other, with constant injuries and empty tactics. Now change the environment. If it is a team with clear tactics and clear division of labor, KD can still play a huge role; if it is only relying on him to "grow popularity and bring hope", then this path is likely to repeat the mistakes of the Nets.

written in the last

Durant's next stop will not only determine the final honor of his career, but will also affect the changes in the entire league's new season.

Perhaps this time, he can finally meet the ideal team of "I don't ask for your redemption, I just want you to end"; or maybe he will prove himself in criticism and doubt again.

The trading window has been opened and the gambling table has been set.

Is it worth it to bet on Durant?
