ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania sparked a wave of speculation with his reaction to Iman Shumpert's suggestion that the San Antonio Spurs would be the best landing spot for Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant.

Durant reportedly has a wishlist (the Spurs, Rockets and Heat reportedly are on it), and with his expiring contract, he has a bit of leverage to get the deal he wants. But he is 37, not 27, and the threat of him passing on a lucrative two-year extension doesn't hold quite the same weight it once would.

The Spurs are interested in Kevin Durant. The Spurs are on Durant's list. But the Spurs think the asking price from the Suns for Durant is too high.
