NBA Rumors: Nets "Wouldn't Consider" A Durant Trade With Raptors Without One Ingredient

The Brooklyn Nets have been driving a hard bargain in their Kevin Durant trade talks around the league. Just look at the insane package they asked the Minnesota Timberwolves for. 

Similarly, in their talks with the Toronto Raptors, says NBA Insider Adrian Wojnarowski, the Nets "wouldn't consider" a Durant trade without Scottie Barnes in the deal.

Right now, as Woj said on ESPN's Get Up this morning, "Toronto doesn't want to part with Scottie Barnes, and Brooklyn right now wouldn't consider a deal without Scottie Barnes."

He went on to discuss other Durant possibilities, such as Phoenix and Miami, and said "The trade scenarios out there are still complex. Miami is still a motivated team... It would have to be a lot of 3rd and 4th team involvement.

"But, I think for the Nets, because Durant has 4 years left on his deal, there's no deal imminent for Brooklyn."
