The 76ers executives are interested in Kevin Durant to build a Big Three lineup to impact next season's championship.
Perhaps the biggest attraction of this season's offseason is The Kevin Durant trade farce. Although he has not been taken away by any new NBA team, according to media reports, his "body and mind" are no longer in Brooklyn. Recently, according to SNY's Ian Bergley, the Philadelphia 76ers' management has begun to take a lot of interest in Durant and wants him to play with James Harden again.
While the Nets have negotiated deals with several teams, including the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Toronto Raptors and even golden state Warriors. However, the 76ers have the ability to strike a deal with Brooklyn. Because the 76ers already have two superstars, James Harden and Embiid, if they can successfully bring in Durant, the 76ers can immediately join the competition queue of the Eastern Conference championship team.
Durant is known to be highly capable as an NBA top-five active player. He can quickly improve the team's forward strength and improve the odds of impacting the championship. Although Durant and Harden once teamed up with the Nets, the Nets' record was not good because of Irving's "thorny" attribute and head coach Nash's "incompetence". The 76ers clearly don't have these problems, and both the head coach and Embiid have a good performance.
According to multiple media reports, the Miami Heat and Toronto Raptors are among the teams interested in Durant. Today, some of the 76ers' top members are keen to make a Durant deal with Brooklyn. At the same time, Durant also regards the 76ers as an ideal landing point, so the Nets' trade with the 76ers is more reliable.
According to the latest developments, the Negotiations between the Brooklyn Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers have been relatively smooth, and have recently made good progress on the deal. It is expected that the final details may only be finalized before the deal is concluded.
It has been reported that the Suns are the most promising team to trade Durant, but because of the signing of center Deandel Ayton, the Durant deal died prematurely. However, in addition to the Boston Celtics, Durant also sees the Philadelphia 76ers as another ideal home, according to people familiar with the matter.
The 76ers want to build a team with championship-winning prowess by the 2022-23 season, with Joel Embiid and James Harden at their core. Well, they have to send a great player like Teres Maxi to pique the Nets' interest. If they have a chance to get a superstar like Durant, the 76ers' championship next season may really be solid. You tell me?
