    KD is Interested in the Thunder,Knicks,Celtics,Rockets,Mavs,Heat ,Warriors,Wizards....

    This is going to be brutal

    Everyone is going to come out and cite their "sources"

    Now I'm hearing he's only interested in the "Mavs, Celtics and Rockets", then today it's the "Knicks" only, I've also heard the Heat a few weeks ago, before the Heat it was the Warriors. Last year was the hometown Wizards. I don't hear much about OKC but I personally think OKC is the chalk.

    If he chose to go to NYC with Carmelo, that would be laughable. Both are soft players that are volume shooters, would be a joke. KD needs toughness around him. The last player KD needs on his team is Carmelo Anthony.

    Unless the Heat could lure LBJ back, I can't see him joining a rebuilding project. Bosh is likely going to retire, Wade has to be close as well.

    The Warriors are worse off with KD

    The Mavs are interesting but with an old as fukk Nowitski and no one else, they'd also have to bring in a few other big names. Maybe Dwight Howard? Never sleep on Cuban though, many of his players have said he's the best owner around.

    The Celtics are interesting, they're young but like most other teams, it depends on who else they could bring in.

    Wizards now have Scottie Brooks, So I'm not sure if that helps or hurts them. I do know for certain that KD and Brooks got along well, but I'm not sure if it's enough to draw KD. Playing with Wall would be like playing with a worse version of Russel Westbrook.

    Lakers

    I'd guess the second most likely team he goes to is the Rockets. Him and Harden are close, the Rockets brought in offensive minded D'Antoni, they do still have Dwight down low, although I think DH would become frustrated with his lack of touches and quit on the team. There still seems to be enough in Houston to make them the runner up.

    Lastly the Thunder. They just had a great season, they know this team should have and can beat the Warriors. Give Billy D a little more time and see what they can do. I don't think KD wants to split from Russ. Plus he stands to lose a lot of $$$ from leaving OKC. He will not get anymore endorsements in a big market vs OKC, that's not how the world works anymore. So financially, OKC is the sound choice. Plus, this OKC team would be better than the Rockets if KD were to go to Houston. So he's more likely to win a ring by staying in OKC than going to Houston.

    Gonna be a long summer, but KD stays put.

    Okc is better than any team outside of gsw. KD will do the right thing and stay in OKC.

    He already stated he will not play in Washington. He hates when okc has to play in Washington and doesn't want that stress of playing at home all year.

    KD has every reason to stay in OKC, no reason to leave

    KD and Curry are both stick figures, each one is an ankle roll away from retirement

    Mavs are always that "throw in" name for any big free agent. No way he comes to Dallas. The only big name they have a realistic shot at is Howard.

    why would he buy a house in houston unless he plans on coming here. i could see them signing kd, dumping dwight for a back up center and moving cappella into starting lineup. dwight and d'antoni have a bad history.

    KD has owned properties in LA, NYC and Miami as well

    He has no need to buy a house in Houston that far in advance either. There would be plenty of time to buy after he declares whatever team. With that said, Houston and OKC have to be the only serious two options at this point.

    Well, Celtics now that Manny is throwing around his weight.

    So true.

    If what Chico says is true and the Rockets dump or trade Dwight, maybe Dallas finally lands another big name. Then they'll go after Westbrook next year

    Dwight Dirk and Russ

    If he wanted to stay in OKC so bad why did he throw game 6? Dude is begging to jump ship as long as a team agrees to go after another top FA like he has been "demanding" supposedly.

    If he has any brain, he'll come to the weak East and play the Finals every year.

    Another top FA?

    He plays with another top 5 player

    Why would he throw a game that would have put OKC in the finals against a weak Cavs team?

    Have you heard his demands? He wants teams guarantee that they go after big names along with him, Russ is a top 5 player but he is also a top 5 player that KD has inconsistent chemistry with to say the least. And I don't really think he threw the game, but it was easily the worst game I have EVER seen him play.

    You really think Russell is going to sign up to play with a 39 year old dirk and the most overrated injury waiting to happen center? Russell would be better off anywhere else.

    Everyone should wait until Lebron gets finished off in game 5, that is when the KD rumor action will really start.
    You know that little pussyy Labrown will run somewhere or stay and try and scam the big names together again.
    I'm not saying he leaves Cleveland, but the odds of him, Love, AND Irving playing together next year are ZERO.
    Love and Irving BOTH hate him, but had to stay for max contracts obviously.
    Expect another circus when this bitch loses yet another NBA final tomorrow.
