Kevin Durant agreed to stay with the Brooklyn Nets after months of demanding a trade but reports are saying the Nets tricked KD into staying. The way they did it is genius and this is a look behind the scenes at how Brooklyn pulled off their plan.

Lol seriously what GM was sitting there like "hmm, KD jus tried to have his GM fired..."🤔. THATS the guy I WANT to trade everything I have for! 🤦
LOL exactly!!
"I want to be the next Rob Pelinka for some reason... wait no I dont"
I’ve never been a basketball fan but this channel has really created interest in the sport for me in a way I’ve never had before. I’m actually excited to try and follow some games and hear analysis throughout the upcoming season.
Thanks Nate!
@@AMHoops absolutely! You do great work 😁
@@AMHoops what did you mean that Woj stopped espn from reporting that KD wanted his GM and coach fired. they definitely reported that
@@b1bbscraz3y they delayed posting the story for 24 hours until it was impossible to ignore
@@Romanus- so they weren't stopped from reporting it
I'm sorry bro but if you think KD is happy you're sadly mistaken
We'll see what happens though
How do you know he isn't happy? 🤔
Kevin Durant wasn't happy in OKC and he wasn't happy in Golden state, where he was winning with the best teammate anybody could ever have! if he was not happy there he certainly isn't going to be happy in that despicable fire dumpster that is the Brooklyn Nets! he was betrayed by Kyrie his boy and they have turned the Nets into a disaster! So now he's not happy !he's miserable! 😤
Why df u debating and determining how another man feels bro chill
Kevin Durant is that you? LOL
You know, since we’re deep in the off-season, a good subject vid might be another deep dive into the Woj situation, but one thing I haven’t seen (not saying it’s not out there, I’m just saying I haven’t seen it) is an explanation or exploration on exactly who and why at the Worldwide Leader gives Woj that much power to make that call to kill or fill a story. I know there’s been a lot of talk about how tied Woj is these guys, but I think fertile ground would be The Who’s and why’s at how Woj just gets to make that call.
Woj has a "source" within the league... I'm pretty sure it's someone in the league office, fairly high up the corporate ladder, where marketing & parity decisions are made; likely have a hand in who goes where & when, which influences betting odds (real money maker)... In short, Woj is a shill for the league to market storylines that temper consumer perception of talent/ competition & minimize losses for the forces that regulate gambling
Yes what do you think lad?
Woj is a loyal Jew.
@@ryantwitter343 lmfao what
@@ryantwitter343 bingo
Love your videos man! Giving credit where credit is due and you take on situations that don't follow the mainstream basketball narrative.
Kobe Bryant demanded a trade exactly 15 years ago in the summer of 2007 and the Lakers didn’t trade him and Kobe ended up winning 2 more rings with the Lakers.
fax history might repeat
Yeah…but….that’s Kobe. KD won’t win another chip.
He ain't Kobe though. Bruh.
KD going about things all wrong
@@tuneunleashed watch me
@@tuneunleashed yeah but he said when a superstar in the last 15 years demanded a trade, they would get it but not Durant?? Like Kobe also demanded a trade but he also wasn’t traded.
He didn't want to leave in the first place! It was performed by him to push them to extend Kyrie,slow down free agency and retool the roster,which they did. He fooled y'all.
I believe so the entire time
Kyree was trying to use Kevin to get an extension because the Nets had already told him they were not giving him one because of his unreliability not because of the vaccine, but because of the other attics he's done he has not shown up for less than 50% of the games with his teammates and that is a problem! They wanted him to commit to coming to basketball and he would not! Kyrie wants to play basketball on his terms when he wants to I hope other teams don't give him a long-term contract unless they have the stipulation that he has to show up to work but knowing him he will lie to get the money!
So his plan failed and he fooled us? Lmao wut
This aged so well!
This guy is the best, He gives you every single drop of information and never hides any, I can tell he is a real NBA fan unlike some other NBA youtubers, and he just has the voice of a reporter which makes in 10 times better, I promise NBA youtube doesn't get better than this
The owners should push for one 5-year max contract per team and two 3-year max contract per team on their roster at the most.
Yea some of these players are wayy too stuck up and spoilt
Ultimately its the players who know the cards are in their hands, because there are leagues ready to snatch up the most elite talent if the bag isn't looking right
Players are gonna treat everything as a business move just as team have treated them like assets
Ownership should push for pay tiers. Only champions and MVPs should qualify for supermax and max and only players who have played in the conference finals should qualify for max. Incentives should be in all contracts for dpoy, scoring title etc.
@@andremiller1566 I 100% agree. In no universe should Bradley Beal get paid more than Lebron, that’s a horrible market place
I have a different view. I think KD's ego also let him agree to cancel the trade request. Before the request, he had believed that other teams would break the bank to get him, but teams were only offering weak packages to get him, that must have shocked him...
I think it’s pure insanity that teams wouldn’t move heaven and earth to get him. Idc what anyone says, he is the best player in the league, the fact he is getting better after a TORN ACHILLES injury in his 30s should actually be unthinkable to accomplish if you really think about it
@@chasehansen5397 u watch too much tv
@@samantharay6098 not really. I’m out here doing all kinds of shit for my own personal life every day…point aside, he really is one of basketballs best players and still is. Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t dude averaging 30 ppg on 55-45-90 spilts??? That in itself is batshit crazy
Ben can play the "Draymond Green Role" in Brooklyn. He can still make plays and play defense without the pressure to score.
He doesn’t play
He can't play his role let alone Dramonts role!😱
Just finished watching the entire video… it was AWESOME. I really appreciate your getting behind the stories that we are being fed by the established sports media. It feels good to know a little bit more about what’s really going on.
KD ruined his own career he chose to control everything if it wasnt for the max kd was gonna leave
Nothing about his career is ruined 2 Chips a mvp multiple scoring titles some all star games etc. nothing ruined
@@saintnick6329 lol true, dude has made millions and has championships. Not bad at all 😂😂
"Ruining his career?!" The only player in NBA history who will finish with more career earnings than Kevin Durant is LeBron James. Durant also has two rings, a league MVP, and if Ben Simmons just plays the way the way he usually does, KD has a Big Three for the third year in a row in Brooklyn.
Don't forget they still have two of the best perimeter shooters in the league with Joe Harris and Seth Curry. The Nets didn't fcuk around in the off-season, either, signing Royce O'Neal and T.J. Warren.
Yeah, I'd say KD's career is going great. 💁🏻♂️🏀🏆
@@saintnick6329 but his image is ruined
KD was controlling nothing!
Kevin Durant wanted to go to New York Knicks Kyrie wanted to go to Brooklyn Kevin Durant followed Kyrie then Kyrie quit on him.
The reason why KD wants the general manager and the coach fired is because if Kyrie and Ben Simmons are not going to play he needs a roster built around him not a scoring point guard and he needs a coach who can compete because he has no talent if Ben Simmons and Kyrie don't play...
Kevin Durant is trapped from not taking control of his situation and following other people
the music in this video is surprisingly dramatic so I guess it fits KD!
Thanks for the video. I have watched the HeatCheck video. Woj is not a reporter. He's a talking head for certain teams. It's unfortunate. As a Raptors fan, I was disappointed when he said the Raptors were "lurking" in the background in the KD trade scenarios. The NBA is an association of 30 NBA teams competing for a prize. Each team should get fair and unbiased media coverage. As a Raptors fan, we don't get that (and I'm aware that many small market teams don't get that either). Happy to see Woj getting exposed for what he is... a schill.
You should be happy. There was no way they were getting kd without trading away a lot of your young core. That kawhi trade was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Just demar for kawhi, sign me up. But you're going to have to give up a lot more to get kd
@@hotox23-56
I'm not talking about any specifics of the trade itself. I'm talking about the language of "lurking". What are the Raptors organization? A bunch of ped0s?? No. We're a respectable organization that has had the 2nd most amount of wins behind the Warriors since 2013 ("Take that for data!").
Lurking... Woj is a joke. A puppet for other NBA teams. If you're a fan of a small market team Woj and ESPN want your star players away from your team's organization and in one of the bigger markets for viewership. Take that for data!.
@@K81Patel media coverage biased af (coming from pels fan), but “lurking” doesn’t seem to have that negative of a connotation to it. It just sounds like y’all are a dark horse, but that’s just me.
@@lucrussell9363
lurking:
adjective
remaining hidden so as to wait in ambush
Doesn't sound positive
I hope y'all well. Jonas was our guy! Happy for Alvarado (reminds me of our Freddie - undrafted). Herb Jones, Troy, BI, CJ, and hopefully Zion will be healthy (and I know I'm missing some key guys here too). You guys are gonna tear it up this year!! Hopefully ESPN notices!!
@@K81Patel Yeah, I agree that is the definition of lurking. If the raptors finessed KD instead of any big market I dont think it would be a stretch to describe it as an ambush that no one saw coming. Sounds more like yall are on some batman shit and would come out of nowhere.
thanks brother, luck to yall as well!
Outstanding work for shouting out your fellow RUclipsrs Casey!!! More reason to like you and your channel.
Ben Simmons needs to be his solid defensive self. Draymond Green with less touches.
@@mathieubenoitmarcellus Kyrie is the primary ball handler all the time. Ben can post up or move out for a three.
So glad y’all not coaches
@@Lancet711 glad you not a damn coach Ben Simmons move out for a 3 😂 Ben Simmons should be point Kyrie sg KD sf
@@saintnick6329 Maybe you need to learn about the sport. Someone has to pass. Not everyone can hog the ball. Look at what happened when Pippen went to Portland. Look at my Run TMC Warriors. You need scoring, defense, and passing. You remove one element and you don’t win.
@@breezy4169 Ben’s afraid to shoot. His instincts are pass first. Kyrie likes to control the ball unlike a true SG like Klay Thompson. If you can teach Boogie Cousins to shoot 3’s, you can definitely work on it with Ben. Post him up, or have him deep to open the lane for KD.
This channel and Heat Check have stepped into actual reporting of NBA industry dynamics. ESPN/Disney exposed itself as over the last season or two as simply a PR partner for the NBA, and has lost all meaningful credibility as a "news" outlet (check out the Woj contract!), and these guys are stepping up to fill the void with a broader view of the whole picture. Great work pulling back the curtain on some really fascinating storylines that are egregiously avoided in the conventional TV and talk radio channels.
The background music really adds a nice touch to the video!
This was exactly what I had written more than a month ago.
Lol imagine saying Brandon Ingram is untouchable 🤣🤣
This is one of the best NBA vids I've ever seen as your level of insight into not just KD, the Nets and wider NBA but also the media and RUclips landcapes is off the charts. Awesome work!
Wow - thanks Andy! That means a lot man 🙏🏼
Always solid content bro💯never change up ,great work
I actually agree with your assessment and now perhaps you can understand why the players show no loyalty to a franchise because it is business. So when a player acts in his own best interest owners really have no beef. Players can contribute to the success of a team but then have to leave that team because of salary caps. Payton Jr. Is a good example. Last year the Lakers would not be able to pay Caruso so he ended up in Chicago. The next agreement is not going to be signed right away because the owners will be trying to strip away any leverage the players might have.
This is literally like the Kobe Bryant trade request.
Heat Check ✔ and AM Hoops! The two best in the NBA business! You guys are the only ones I hit the bell for 🔔 nice work!
Once I heard the first few minutes of this video, I knew this would all lead to Heat Check's video. One of his best videos yet.
Casey U've been my morning dose of basketball for the last 2 years, that is insane.
Super humbled. Thank you so much Tuor 🙏🏼
I love how AM Hoops connects his videos at the end.
All those trade rumors just exposed which teams would give up certain key players.
Skip "I'm not done" Bayless called it! The beauty of broken clocks.
Nets need a new coach and a Brook Lopez or an Al Horford type of player, a shot blocker, good rebounder, and great floor spacer
Stuff like this is what leads to what happened with Kawhi in SA. Next video is going to be KD willing to sit out 4 years until Nets trade him.
The Nets don't need a new head coach...They need players who don't bring too much drama to the game.
@CH And you must be a fanatic KD/Kyrie underwear sniffer. Aren't you aware that teams are tired of all these drama? That's why I rather watch SpongeBob SquarePants 🤣
KD never was serious about leaving, y’all must be slow
i sent you that video in a twitter DM 3 weeks ago i knew this was happening all along
The way JxmyHighRoller creates his stories is unprecedented. The amount of research, the graphics, the choice of words, the editing, the flow, the tension he creates, the emotion he stirs, the voice acting. It's like THE Breaking Bad in RUclips. That's how content videos should be made.
A.M. Hoops. Heat Check, Thinking Basketball, BBALLBREAKDOWN, even Hoop Reports... all quality channels... But Jxmy is just on another level. THE G.O.A.T.
Yes, no one does it like Jxmy!!
@@AMHoops Exept you and heat check. All 3 channels are goated.
Dude! Fuc* y** for being so charismatic! I enjoy your videos a lot.
As a raptors fan. The nba media being biased ISnt anything surprising
The way this guy talks about nba players gets more condescending by the video
my boy A.M. Herro LMAOOO
Have Ben play a paint only Jokic-ish role
Exactly, when he said they would lose all of his playmaking at center, I was like, what about Jokic?
I gotta get my tin hat on 😂
With the position less basketball nowadays
Ben simons can run some offense but on defense guard the other teams center
at the end of the game and especially when it is close
he need to have kyrie and Kd run the offense and he needs to be the center and give them second chances
Thanks for giving credit where credit is due. Thank you Ethan.
I totally agree about woj bias reporting! As a subscriber of heat check as well as yours, the perfect sample why woj is bias is about how he was against lebron and the the klutch sports where he cannot acces news as well like Simmons and Harden trade.
love your vids! From a HOOPER!
Nice!! 🙏🏼
It's all a huge game and KD still holds all of the leverage. If for a second he feels like he got played. He will not show up for training camp. And could legitimately force a trade to any team he wants. All he has to say is I will not play for your organization I will not show up to training camp and I will publicly ask for a trade. No team that's in a position to win can take that chance.
I don’t think kd is like that tho
@@grassy_butt2279 we seen how he reacts just off of social media so if he feels like he's gotten manipulated and played I wouldn't put anything past him.
The nets need to play Simmons at point and kyrie at shooting
Ben is going to be at the 5 when he's fully healthy, well more time then none.
As soon as Ben fully recovers from back surgery. That could be quite awhile…..
No we need someone at the 5
@@grassy_butt2279 until that happens, him and Claxton will run the 5. It just what it is.
@@marcusgarvey6231 his back isn’t hurt. He’s literally scared to play basketball for millions of dollars. Soft as Kleenex
Great videos man, good work
How is Steve Nash a bad coach? He gets all this hate but like the Nets woulda been a disaster with nearly any coach. If KD and Kyrie don’t respect him than that’s on them.
Great video keep it up
This dude just be talking what u hate the nets so much for?
KDs life can be summed up by looking at that thing he calls a beard.
MJ never left the Bulls. He didn't worry about winning a game without Pippen.
Kobe was a fool for fighting with Shaq, and KD was a bigger fool for leaving the Warriors. His legacy is toast. Both of their attempts to "be like Mike" did the exact opposite and cost them rings.
This guy looks like the malnourished Tom Brady that emerged from his leave of absence 2 weeks ago.
We all know Enes Kanter’s big mood at the 4:20 mark 🇨🇳😅
KD decided to sound toxic but he didn't have the stomach or the will to GET TOXIC. Once the Nets figured that out he wasn't going anywhere. All he had to do was threaten to sit out or retire and he was going to be out of there.
whos here after the trade to phoenix
Thanks for this great video. I've wondering what’s been going on in the Durrant drama.
Also, I really appreciate your clarity and insights, as well as enthusiastic delivery. On top of that, I think your tone of voice has a friendly, congenial quality to it. That's why I think I can safely ask you the following question.... (I’ve asked this same question of at least twenty-five other RUclips presenters, so I hope you don’t take it personally, or in a negative way. I’m on a quest to understand a particular speech pattern and, so far, I don’t have any clear answers.)
My question: Why do you often say *aye* for “a” ... and *thee* for “the”? To my knowledge, there are very limited circumstances in which those pronunciations would be correct (i.e., most often related to the first letter of the word that follows the article)... and most of the time they're not. To my ears, these sounds very unnatural -- I have doubts you or anyone would use these pronunciations in everyday conversation, for example.
I remember my father doing this, when I was a kid, while he was pretending to be a newscaster or a high-ranking military officer. My only guess, at this point, is that there is a belief that these pronunciations make the speaker sound more formal or educated. I am interested in hearing from those who use this speech pattern, however, and would appreciate any light you could shed on this.
Way to shout out Stephen on Heat Check!!!
This is one reason why your channel will rise to one of the top NBA RUclips channels 😌😌😌😌😌😌
Brooooo I read “Traded” 😭
I'm very happy that the raptors didn't trade for KDiva
KD watching this video like… 👀
I have noticed a pattern with KD, he is only loyal to himself, whenever he doesn't whatever he wants he tries to leave, he will throw anybody under the bus on any team he is on if it gets what he wants,
Dropping Heat Check😎 Two of my favorite channels 🤑🤘🏻
He’s the best!
@@AMHoops I personally prefer your channel over his becauseyoure way more consistent while similar quality (and not saying that to ass kiss). Keep doing your thing homie🤑✌🏻💨💨💨
Nah it mostly got messed up by the Rudy trade
They play Simmons like draymond. A true point-center
What trick? KD is under a 4 year contract and last I checked there is no clause that allows KD to trade himself. The fact that they even tried to trade him KD should be happy about.
Me: I wonder which comment here is from KD's burner 🤔
This is something else that the media is trying really hard to cover up for the last and final time kd never asked for Steve Nash. Kd reportedly suggested that they should’ve hired Ty lue kd was unaware that marks has already given Nash the green light to coach them there was no reports that they interviewed other qualified candidates. So when the media announced Nash got hired that’s when kd & ky found out and they wasn’t pleased with the idea but went along with it to give him a shot they wasn’t going to publicly bash Nash after he recently got hired. But kyrie did make a comment moment’s later stating that the Net’s didn’t need a coach it was a shot at Nash and marks bc he as the gm ignored their suggestions for the past 2 year’s what has Nash done that warrants him more time ? If they keep losing to championship contenders the Net’s should fire Nash with no hesitation if they continue to keep him knowing the players don’t like him and they’re constantly losing to good team’s there’s obviously a level of concern and it involves the front office bc they stated they want to compete for a championship but if they keep Nash around that contradicts with what they said as an organization bc Nash doesn’t have the clout to push these guy’s over the hump…
If that's true then why has Durant consistently praised Nash? He publicly endorsed Nash after the Celtics loss when the media was killing Nash.
Ben Simmons should be a Point-Center.. run the ball on offense to draw the big man out, then cover the 5 on Defense
Ben Simmons can still be an elite playmaker at center.
I love your channel
No wonder I was irritated by all of this chatter right out of the gate.. 🧐
"Kevin Durant" and "happiness" don't exactly coincide with each other. That dude is always miserable.
That Celtics package was nice. I probably would have taken that, KD at 34 GIMMIE brown
Amazing video keep it up
Jaylen Brown next video A.M. Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
Nobody is reporting how bad an agent Rich Paul is. How most of his clients are inflated
They should inquire about miles turner or capella. Ben isn't a starting 5. I'd play ben as a point forward so he could guard the best 1-4 daily and playmake.
nice topic
I like KD as player, but what KD, kyrie and Ben need to be united is rivalry, and hate to/from another teams. That will spark the animal within them to go for a kill, and Philly sixers are the best candidates.
in hindsight, looks like the NETS flubbed that Celtics offer pretty bad...
Durant is going to be so mad at the Nets by December it’s gonna get ugly.
No takers for aging KD. Nets asking way too much so no NBA teams will bite
KD and Kyrie doesn't give a shit about the nets anymore they will most likely repeat what happened last season I really hope they just stay healthy and actually care to play THEN we would really be a championship contender
Let’s not pretend the Rudy trade didn’t cement the result of kds trade
the problem with the nets is they're so cocky and choose to take games off because they think just by talent they can beat everyone lol
Kyrie Irving & Ben Simmons officially BFF now 😂🤣😂
What
What the Nets were asking for was ridiculous. Why would a team want to move multiple first round picks AND a young all-star? The whole point of acquiring Durant is to go all in. Trading away an all-star is not all in.
Steve Nash is not the problem, you even said it earlier.
KD will not be returning to BKN as long as Nash is there, they won’t even win. Put Mark Jackson & watch what happens
Quality content.
YOUN DONT HAVE TO YELL INTO THE MICROPHONE ALL THE TIME! THEY ARE VERY SENSITIVE! LOTS OF STEVEN A. VIBES.
Ya I never understood which team was going to blow up their team for a baby like KD. Then NBA media just threw nonsense at the wall..try to see if something stuck
Ben Simmons would still be a good play maker even at center, look at all the elite passing bigs in the NBA
Magic Johnson win a championship playing center in game 6 against Philadelphia…so is the best for Ben Simmons be the center…
a pissing match between a billionaire and millionaire never turns out well for the millionaire.
That was a terrible thing to do to KD
