Reasons for the trade from Clippers: Clippers have enough scorers and a superstar SF in Kevin Durant. This move not only gives MKG the opportunity to go out to another team and give them a legit superstar presence at SF, but also opens up the Clippers to receive a franchise PG with the vision to find open team mates.
Reasons for the trade from Mavericks: Mavericks could use an up-and-coming superstar with Steve Nash set to retire in the next year or so. MKG gives them great defensive ability as well as being a solid scorer. We all saw the quality minutes he put in with the Clippers and its clearly evident that he will be a force to be reckoned with with this Mavericks team. Jeff Teague is set to replace Steve Nash once he retires.
