Goodbye Big Three! The first person to leave the Suns? He even found a home
In the first round of this year's playoffs, the Phoenix Suns, who have the three giants of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal, were unexpectedly swept out of the game by the Timberwolves with a score of 4-0, and completely became a big joke in the league! You must know that before this, the Suns Big Three have always been considered the super favorites to win the championship this year. But it is such a team that is favored to win the championship, and now it has become the first team to be swept out of the tournament this year, which is really surprising!
The Suns used the 0-4 painful lesson to tell everyone that it is no longer feasible for the NBA to blindly build a super team at present! On this top basketball stage with many talents, if you are still immersed in the dream world of 1+1+1>3, then in the end it can only be a bamboo basket and a void! When the Suns acquired Beal through a trade last summer, the outside world can be said to have praised the Suns' Big Three, thinking that the Big Three combining the old, middle and young will dominate the league in the new season and finally win the damn championship! But the result? Eliminated in the first round of this year's playoffs! The sun reaps nothing but disappointment and anger.
As it turned out, the Sun Triumvirate was a mistake from the very beginning. They do have super offensive firepower, but they can't form an organic whole! This season, almost all of the Suns' Big Three are Durant after Booker plays, Booker plays Beal, and the Suns, who are addicted to unlimited singles, even feel that they can win the championship without a point guard. The regular season can barely be played, but when it comes to the playoffs, their blind arrogance is rubbed the ground. In the end, it was swept by the young Timberwolves without blood, leaving endless pain and regret!
After the Suns were swept away, the outside world is almost certain that the Big Three will fall apart this summer! Because there is no hope of winning the championship in them at all. What's even more terrifying is that the remaining big contracts of the Big Three have locked up the future of the team, which leaves the Suns without ample salary space to bring in reinforcements. Therefore, it is really impossible for the Suns to hope to build a real championship lineup in the next three to five years! Booker and Beal are still relatively young, but Durant who desperately needs to re-prove himself with a championship can't wait, and KD is about to turn 36. If Durant still wants to prove that he can win a championship without the Warriors, then his only way out at the moment is to leave the Suns and climb another high!
Recently, former NFL player Chad Johnson talked about Durant while participating in the famous Shannon Sharpe show. "I talked to Durant and I don't like basketball, like Durant, LeBron and some other players I know have a lot of trust in me," he said. I asked him if he could discuss it. He said he had no problem joining the Heat, if it made sense. ”
It can be seen that Durant is actually ready to leave the Suns from the heart, and at the same time he is also looking forward to joining the Heat and Butler to win the championship! As long as a deal is possible, he will gladly accept it! Combined with some recent remarks from Heat President Satle Riley, he has said that the Heat have been successful in recent years and are only one step away from winning the championship, so he will spare no effort to find the superstar who can really end the game. Perhaps, God will be able to bring Durant to Miami this summer.
While it's unclear whether this potential blockbuster deal will happen, it's at least certain that Durant wants to leave Phoenix, and the Suns' Big Three are close to dwelling in name only! So, will Kevin Durant be the first player to leave the Suns this summer? Let's wait and see!
