With the proposition of a blockbuster trade that would send 14 time All Star, two-time NBA Champion and 2013-2014 MVP Kevin Durant to the Minnesota Timberwolves. That same trade would send Karl-Anthony Towns to Phoenix and end his nine-year reign in Minnesota. This is my reaction to the trade, and it’s not a report!

Denver, CO

The NBA is a constantly evolving ecosystem. A team that seems untouchable one year can become vulnerable the next. Why? There’s so much talent in the league. How? Getting fleeced in a trade or losing players in free agency. The Nuggets have lost key contributors in back-to-back offseasons and find themselves needing veterans to keep competing. This trade will allow the Nuggets to recreate some Olympic magic and hope the veterans acquired in this deal breathe new life into their title dreams.

San Francisco, CA

According to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle, the San Francisco Giants have expressed interest in signing veteran catcher Elias Diaz. The news comes right after the team placed starting catcher Patrick Bailey on the injured list with a strained oblique. In Bailey’s absence, San Francisco will turn to Curt Casali and Jakson Reetz behind the plate. However, both offer little offensively and fit best in backup or organizational depth roles. With the Giants clinging to its postseason odds, signing Diaz and hip upside might be necessary to avoid falling out of the National League Wild Card race.
