Durant chooses one of the next two? He is interested in joining the Western Conference Finals to compete for the championship, and the scorers may repeat the same mistakes
On May 28, today's famous reporter Shams broke out a lot of big news when he was a guest on a show, such as James's ability to execute a player option contract, and next season may be the last season of his career. The Celtics will trade in the offseason, and their roster will be different from now. In addition, Shams also said that this summer may be the craziest offseason in history, and it seems that many big fish will be traded.

The biggest fish in the offseason should be Antetokounmpo, followed by Durant. The recent news is that the Bucks are trying to convince Antetokounmpo to stay in the team, and they are willing to continue building a team around Alphabet. If letters don't leave the team, then where Durant goes will attract the attention of many fans. After all, Durant is a player who has the ability to change the league structure. Even though he is 36 years old, he is still one of the best scorers in the league.
Previously, US media also reported that Durant may not leave the team, provided that the Suns introduce an excellent coach, but judging from the current situation, Durant will probably leave the team. The three candidates for the Suns coach are Johnny Bryant, Jordan Ultra and Chris Quinn. These three are all assistant coaches and have no coaching experience. Everyone knows that the Suns are the big-name stars, and they will blame the coach as long as they lose. Vogel and Budenholzer can't take them well, so don't expect these rookie coaches.

So Durant is likely to leave the team, but now Durant's trading market seems not so active. The Rockets were interested in him before, but considering his big contract and his age are not consistent with the Rockets' future plans, the Rockets also have no intention of using more chips to trade to get Durant. The Mavericks were interested in him before, but after getting the No. 1 pick, the Mavericks also had an idea. They wanted to train the No. 1 pick, and the team even gave up the opportunity to trade and get letters.
Now there are only two teams that are interested in Durant, the Spurs and the Timberwolves. According to famous reporter Shams, whether the Spurs are players like Antetokounmpo or players like Durant, the Spurs are interested in them before the trading deadline, and the Spurs are considering whether there is a suitable forward introduction in the offseason. The Spurs have a lot of trading assets. They have the second pick and the No. 14 pick this year, and there are many draft picks that can be traded in the future. Therefore, the team wants to introduce forward stars who partner with the literary team to strive to make the team achieve a qualitative leap. The Spurs have stated that they will not trade their second picks, and the team intends to win Harper. Under such circumstances, the Spurs' backcourt is too crowded, so the US media also predicts that Paul will change his club in the offseason. However, good news came from the Spurs today. Wenban has recovered from the blood clots and has started training on the court. It is reported that Wenban will not compete with the French men's basketball team in the European Championships.
If Durant can be introduced, then the Spurs will indeed have a chance to have a place in the West, but there seems to be a gap in trying to win the championship. After all, there are too many young players on the team and the coach has limited ability. In this case, the Suns and the Spurs may be willing to complete the Durant deal, but Durant, as a bargaining chip, may not be willing. He has a team he likes more - he wants to join the Timberwolves to win the championship.

According to Forbes reporter Evan on social media, as the Western Conference Final progresses, the Timberwolves have become Durant's most attractive next home. The Timberwolves actively pursued Durant in February this year, and they do have the assets and bargaining chips to take action again this summer. Durant is Edwards' favorite player, and the two have also trained together in the summer. As expected, Durant still likes to join the strong team.
I thought he would be interested in the Thunder, but the Thunder no longer needed him anymore. Joining the Timberwolves is probably the wishful thinking of him and Edwards. Such a deal does not seem to be much beneficial to the Timberwolves. If they want to get Durant, they will probably have to pay Randle, first round pick + an excellent blue-collar puzzle matching contract. The Suns may want McDan or Diven. One of these two Timberwolves' strength will decline.

Moreover, Huazi and Durant's style of play are both terminators, similar to the combination of Booker and Durant at the time. Although they have strong offensive firepower, they cannot connect the team and can only play more singles, affecting the team's system. The Timberwolves lack most is not players like Durant. Perhaps Harden is the type they need most. They need a ball holder with outside threats. Conley now obviously does not have this ability.
If Durant joins the Grizzlies, I think they will most likely repeat the same mistakes. The health and condition of the two veterans Conley and Durant will be hidden dangers. If a top blue-collar worker leaves the team, their lineup will also decrease, and the conflict between Huazi and Durant's playing styles is less than 1+1>2. Having said that, what do you want to say about Durant’s future? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
