I just posted somewhere else, where I said Tanguay is an idiot, apparently this came up shortly after and Felger did this piece
Felger - look at all the teams he is meeting with and it makes some sense, but Boston?
None of these people know what they are talking about. Boston has a legit shot. Clips have a legit shot. OKC and Spurs have a legit shot. Maybe even Miami has a legit shot. Durant will make a decision after he meets with these teams and I suspect it will be a long-term decision. He wanted to hear teams out who he respected and who his agent suggests might be a good long-term fit for him. We're on the list, because he's interested in playing here.
Yeah I don't get why it's weird.
It's a long shot, no doubt. We would all be shocked if he chose to sign here. But...it does make sense.
The Cs have a great cap situation. They have a very young roster. They have talent. They won almost 50 games and beat both Conference champions on the road. Save for a brain-fart over the Xmas/New Year's break we are talking about the the #3 team in the East in 2105 and a top 7 team in the NBA.
That doesn't even get into the the tremendous amount of assets the team still has for the next 4 years.
