According to US media, the negotiations for renewal between Durant and the Rockets are progressing smoothly, and a version that will be satisfactory to both sides, and the former has promised the latter that he will retire in Houston.

Durant can sign $122 million for two years. For the sake of winning the championship and future plans, the Rockets do not want to renew Durant with such a contract.

Rockets general manager Raphael Stone is a legal person and is good at sorting out and planning contracts. It can be seen from the previous contracts for Shin Kyung, Jaylen Green, and Jabbarry Smith Jr. that Stone has a pretty good deal in signing contracts.

Durant only won two championships in his entire career with the Warriors, but the outside world believes that it is the championship that he can only "submit to the enemy" and is skeptical about his ability to lead the team. He then joined the Nets and the Suns, and he also held his breath and wanted to win the championship again and prove himself with his strength.

Unfortunately, things went against my expectations. Durant's experience in the Nets and the Suns was tortuous. In 6 years, not to mention the championship, it was quite difficult to even the playoffs. Joining the Rockets in the offseason was a decision made by Durant after weighing the strength of all parties, so Durant did not care whether he could get the maximum salary anymore, but put the championship first.
