Inside the KD Trade Fiasco: How the Suns Misled the Timberwolves Without Consulting Durant
The Art of Misdirection
The Suns pulling a ‘trust me bro’ negotiation tactic with KD might be the sneakiest move since Draymond’s screen-setting techniques.
Pineapple on Pizza Energy
Claiming Durant was “open” to Minnesota without asking him? That’s like ordering Hawaiian pizza for someone who only eats pepperoni - a recipe for disaster (and potential Twitter rants from those burner accounts).
Five Takeaways:
- Suns FO playing 4D chess while everyone else is playing checkers
- KD probably typing angry tweets with one hand and vetoing trades with the other
- Timberwolves left holding the bag like ‘Wait…what just happened?’

McDaniels’ Wingspan: Illegal or Just Unfair?
