This marks another season where neither Kevin Durant nor James Harden will make it past the second round.
Both got to their preferred destinations when they requested trades from Brooklyn. They haven’t had success.

Kendrick Perkins: Kevin Durant is going to end up in the Houston Rocket uniform. They have the pieces. If I’m the Rockets, I’m going all in. Jabari Smith, Jalen Green, Cam Whitmore, and some picks for Kevin Durant. And don’t come give me Kevin Durant don’t have it no more. The one thing Kevin Durant will do when he gets to Houston is respect Ime Udoka because we know they have a great relationship. You pair him alongside the Thompson twin with Sengun, Fred VanVleet, the Rockets looking to make some noise. That was the one thing that they were missing in this series was a closer and Kevin Durant provides that. -via YouTube / May 5, 2025
The likes of Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Zion Williamson, and Devin Booker will be linked in the rumor mill in the coming weeks, all with different pros and cons depending on Houston’s direction. Team sources say the Rockets will monitor the market closely and will hold internal discussions about potential fits and offers. -via New York Times / May 5, 2025
When the United States lost its first two exhibition games against Nigeria and Australia, the panic alarms started blaring. Everyone was questioning whether the team was going to collapse. Was this going to be Popovich’s greatest embarrassment as a coach? But, of course, he righted the ship. “He doubled down on how hard he wanted to coach them,” Pierce said. “It started with KD, Draymond [Green], all the way down, Dame [Damian Lillard]. He had appropriate fear all along because he knew we weren’t invincible.” The superstars allowed Popovich to scream at them. They wanted Pop to be Pop. They welcomed it. -via FoxSports.com / May 2, 2025
