Miami Heat Could Benefit From Kevin Durant Trade Without Getting KD

With the latest also indicating that the Nets do intend to get every last asset from a team in order to secure Kevin Durant, that means that it will be a might hefty trade package they are seeking, one of the biggest ever according to previously reported Nets desires.

More than likely, that scenario will require multiple teams and perhaps, more than just three of them. For a club like the Miami Heat that employs Pat Riley, Andy Elisburg, and other brilliantly shrewd dealmakers, that could be another supreme opportunity.

Sitting back in wait for all this to shake out has been well played by the Heat. In most scenarios, patience does do the trick but at this point, it doesn’t seem like the Heat will be the team that wins the Kevin Durant Sweepstakes if you’re being completely honest.

That’s especially if they are only interested in a package centered around Bam Adebayo to get it done. But, the Miami Heat could still do themselves a huge favor by simply—getting in on the Durant deal.
