The Miami Heat pursued Kevin Durant to bolster their team but missed out as reports indicated the veteran forward is heading to the Houston Rockets. After his time with the Phoenix Suns, Durant’s move is seen as pivotal, with commentators like Stephen A. Smith claiming it elevates the Rockets to title contender status. The Heat's failure to secure Durant is attributed to their insufficient offers to the Suns. Meanwhile, Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks are set to join the Suns as part of the trade, with Smith commenting on Green's postseason performance.
The one thing we looked at with Houston in terms of what they were lacking was a No. 1 offensive option. When everything falls apart, give this person the ball and get the hell out of the way. They got it, now. His name is Kevin Durant, and he is no joke.
Had that man shown up in the postseason against the Warriors and played better, this wouldn't have happened. Jalen Green showed he ain't ready, and the rest of the Rockets showed they very well may be ready.
