KD can do a Ben Simmons (who else, he's just a whisper away in team practices) and sit the whole year and wait for a buy out or whatever. It's not a nice view to see players sit while under contract. It's getting to be a trend of sorts.
I'm with Tatum on this one. I admit KD is one of the greatest but he's 38 yo and under contract for 4 years. I would definitely pull a Jerry Buss and keep KD. Kyrie is a different story as who knows how many games he will decide to play so I agree with Tatum on this one. I like the Celtics as is. To get KD will destroy the team
Jayson Tatum likes current Celtics team amid Kevin Durant trade talks
The Celtics have emerged among teams engaged in talks on a possible deal for Nets star Kevin Durant, sources told ESPN, with the ability to include Jaylen Brown as a centerpiece in any offer helping make Boston formidable in its pursuit.

KD has indicated he doesn't want to go to a team which have no stars left. So Brad will not sell his farm either. And the Nets want the farm and lot. Tough situation.

I don't know, either.
My guesses are:
Away from Kyrie?
Somewhere where his chances are better than on his own and in addition being troubled by a proper nutcase and someone who refuses to work

Though I read some reports saying he's backing Kyrie to get a long term contract from the Nets, and since the Nets didn't give in, KD wants out despite having 4 years in his contract.
Rival NBA executives reportedly believe the Boston Celtics can offer the best player in a Kevin Durant trade package, likely in the form of Jaylen Brown, but...
Pretty simple.....there won't be any championships in Brooklyn and with Kyrie's demand KD decided he too wanted to extricate himself. Honestly KD is a great player but he's as far over the pinnacle of his career as is LeBron. The Kobert trade must have sobered all of the league GM's
Plus KD and his age have rendered him much more injury prone. Im sure the Nets also want to eliminate his large 4 year contract but which team will truly give up the farm for a 38 yo injury prone has been. Sorry Christoph, we both like him but I abhor the tail wagging the dog in this league. Hell Lakers have the top tail wagger
