Eh and the crowd goes mild. If Durant was still all that the Suns would have been better. Teams just ignore the age/injury/defense factor like with LeBron and he´s a poor leader on top. I´d actually say a net negative in the leadership department and not exactly what you like in a young-ish locker room.

that PHX team was awful.  KD is older and needs more help, but he is still very good.   He needs rim protection behind him.  PHX had him way too much being the longest guy on the court.  You also can't ask him to be the #1 wing defender.  I think he is still a good defender but it needs to be managed.  Houston has those things.   KD will fit in really well.  He will get you 28 a game on near 50/40/90, plus a guy to run offense thru late.  I think he will really help Houston.  They still have plenty of assets.  I have no idea how PHX couldn't even get Whitmore who really does not have a place in Houston.
