The Kevin Durant trade saga that once held the NBA news cycle hostage with constant rumors has turned into an overlong survivalist drama. Those of us still interested in where perhaps the greatest scorer in the sport’s history may end up were gifted a little piece of news this week when multiple reports indicated the Celtics offered Jaylen Brown in a trade for Durant. Boston, of course, made the Finals last season going through Durant, and Brown was one of the biggest reasons why. While Durant is obviously one of the most talented people to ever play in the league, there’s an argument to be made that a trade between the Nets and Celtics could end up being regrettable for both sides. And I am about to make that argument. Here’s why I don’t like a Durant-for-Brown trade for either Boston or Brooklyn.
