“KD asked for a trade. He knows what’s exactly best for him and nobody can tell him what’s best for him. As for DA’s situation, I think the team would love to have DA back. Everybody loves DA.” #Suns big Bismack Biyombo on Kevin Durant and Deandre Ayton. https://t.co/sgYiDOPEIl pic.twitter.com/wZqIXeDLhl – 9:42 AM

2 points mentioned
1. Everyone loves their roster in the offseason. That changes during the regular season after a 4 game losing streak
2. The cost of gutting your roster.

Damian Lillard has made 200+ 3-pointers in 7 different seasons, tied with Klay Thompson for 2nd-most all-time. Only Stephen Curry has more with 9 such seasons.
Entering 2022-23, Lillard has made 2,143 career 3-pointers, tied with Paul Pierce for 9th-most all-time. – 5:23 PM

Lillard is the tied for third as the longest tenured NBA player to remain with the team that he was drafted by, joining Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. His career on court earnings is now $436 million. That ranks only behind Kevin Durant, Curry and Beal. – 5:19 PM

David Kahn passed on Stephen Curry twice in the 2009 NBA Draft as the President of B-ball Operations of the Timberwolves. I asked him if this is something that still haunts him. “I don’t believe in ghosts”, he replied during his interview at @SdnaGr. #RaisedByWolves #DubNation – 7:48 AM

My preference remains a two-team Lakers-Nets deal for Kyrie Irving because I prefer Joe Harris and Seth Curry to Josh Richardson and Doug McDermott. – 10:02 PM

More on this storyline
The only thing is I’ve heard from people who would know is that KD has his heart set on Phoenix. And that Miami is also right behind the Suns. That’s it. -via Spotify / July 9, 2022 Marc J. Spears was the first to report the Warriors were interested in discussinga Durant deal after the former Warrior made his trade request on June 30. Quickly after Spears backpedaled just a tad to clarify his comments. “A call is a call, and that’s what Bob Myers makes all the time. So, I think people shouldn’t put the cart in front of the horse, but there was a phone call.” -via Heavy.com / July 9, 2022 According to Jovan Buha of The Athletic, some members in the organization prefer trading for Indiana Pacers veterans Myles Turner and Buddy Hield instead (via “The Athletic NBA Show”): “There’s a stalemate right now, really between multiple teams. The league is kinda in a gridlock right now with this whole Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving situation. I think particularly for the Lakers with Russ and Kyrie, from what I’ve heard the Nets’ plan right now is to move KD first before moving Kyrie, so I don’t think you’re going to see a Kyrie deal happen until KD gets moved. “On top of that, they don’t want to take back Russell Westbrook, and they want at least one pick back. The Lakers have been hesitant to give up that draft capital… I know that they’ve looked around at Indiana. ‘Can we get a Myles Turner and a Buddy Hield?’” -via Silverscreenandroll.com / July 9, 2022 “They are two great players in their 20s,” Lacob said. “We’d love to retain them. But this becomes the problem going forward when you have a team like ours where you’ve got three guys that have been with us for a long time, make a lot of money, huge salaries — Steph, Klay and Draymond. You’ve got these two guys who will be getting into – well, already is in big salary mode and wants to stay there. And is going to be clearly making a lot more money. -via Clutch Points / July 8, 2022 Kylen Mills: STEPH CURRY FROM DEEP! He’s just built different. #dubnation #goldblooded pic.twitter.com/9XYeecoxr7 -via Twitter @KylenMills / July 8, 2022 In preparing to write about Charles Barkley’s odds to win the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, I went to look up some old clips of his swing for us all to laugh about. And to my surprise, it’s actually improved from the old disjointed stroke that made us feel better about our own games over the years. The new swing is turning some bettors into believers. -via For The Win / July 8, 2022
