But regardless, since Kevin Durant already express his interest to be traded, there's no way the Nets should keep him on the roster next season. The motivation and determination are already not there to play for the team in long term. Unfortunate to see that kind of relationship. When Durant signed a 4-year extension last year, the whole Brooklyn Nets is so happy that there will be more seasons that Durant will stay on them and expected to build a legacy on that team. It was all mentioned in the media interview and now looked at what happened.
The Brooklyn Nets thought that they made the right decision and they were happy because a 4-year extension is quite a long time but unfortunately, there are certain things why KD requested a trade and things had change since the 2021-2022 season began. At first, the team was dominating in ECF but eventually, the big three became a big disaster.
