Obviously trading Scottie is a nogo for me but other than that I hope they make a huge push for KD even if it means giving up guys like OG, GTJ, Precious, Banton, etc.. The roster as it currently stands is in a tough spot where it's unlikely to become a true championship contender unless Scottie becomes a 1a sooner than later. Acquiring someone like Durant puts you back in win now contender mode for the next 2-3 seasons and allows you to blow it up at the conclusion of his contract and begin a fresh rebuild around Barnes if he is willing to extend longterm. I am a big fan of the clarity a move like this would bring for the franchise.
