Trade for Kevin Durant

This is the simple one. The most obvious way the Golden State Warriors can get involved in the Kevin Durant fiasco is well… trading for Kevin Durant.

We know what KD brings to the table. Two championships as the Finals MVP speak for themselves.

Even though Durant had a meltdown recently against Boston, he is still playing at a level that makes him one of the five best players planet.

In order to add this talent, though, the Warriors would have to dump a considerable amount of assets.

Do not expect a deal to happen unless some combination of *Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, James Wiseman, Jonathan Kuminga, Jordan Poole and Moses Moody (on top of a mountain of NBA Draft picks) is involved.

*Andrew Wiggins can only be traded for Kevin Durant if Ben Simmons is traded somewhere else*

I think I speak for most of us when I say, nah, to this deal.

But it remains an option that is on the table.
