As soon as the Warriors won the NBA Finals, the attention shifted to the preparations for next season. What caught the eye most is the trade rumors in the off-season. The trade options fired up debates and predictions. The center of attention for all of it is majorly the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Brooklyn Nets right now. The rumors of Kyrie Irving reuniting with LeBron James took the NBA world by storm. And now his current teammate at the Nets, Kevin Durant, has reportedly hinted to leave, which has shaken the possibilities even more.
