Durant

[Smitty731]

Guys, I make money off this now and this is very serious career-wise for me, so I promise I am not trolling in any way. Those of you who know me, know that isn't my style anyway.

I probably shouldn't even be sharing, because it isn't really my source, but you guys are my Celtics family so...

Love you man. Really appreciate you taking the time.

It is starting to get a little creepy because I haven't left the room in a bit, but this is way more important than crappy summer league.

A couple people asked why I haven't put it on my Twitter. It isn't my source. That would be unethical, so I can't do that. I can just re-tweet what the real guys are hearing. If you want to know who I am with, you can probably figure it out fairly easily.

And if you want to follow me, I'll take it! @KeithSmithNBA

If this happens Smitty becomes a Kingly level legend. Those who have been around a while know what I'm talking about.

Ah. The days I was a lurker. I do remember those Kingly posts. Wasn't dude best friends with Al Jeff?

[Falstaff]

Dude, if you guys can get him, you bloody RUN at it.

Isaiah Thomas / Marcus Smart / Terry Rozier
Avery Bradley / R.J. Hunter
Jae Crowder / Jaylen Brown
Kevin Durant / Jordan Mickey
Al Horford / Kelly Olynyk

Plus Eight Billion Trillion Million Picks.

I think I've been mentally blocking myself from considering what the roster would actually look like with Durant. Holy crap that team looks great.

I have a Bostonian friend, and he is on the verge of smoking crack to alleviate the emotional stress. I have stated for about ten months that Boston is legitimately the best option for Kevin Durant.

Lol well tell him there are likely better ways for him to alleviate the stress. This very message board, for example.

[illmatic24]

There's too much talk about a Players Tribune announcement. Players don't use that when they're simply re-signing with their current team. It's normally used to explain their decision when they leave.

It's GS vs Boston, boys.

He said his decision was a PT exclusive several months back. Don't read too much into it.

You let us enjoy our fleeting hope, damn it!

Had zero idea about this Durant thread as I just refreshed the other one. Did he share positive or negative news

I cant handle this, i'm bout to **** my pants
I was ready that he aint coming here, but got my hopes back. PLEASE GOD

[ConstableGeneva]

I'm trying, man. This is too much.

[ShermansShoes]

Draymond Green is pitching him hard, but Draymond thinks the Warriors are out and it is Boston unless Russ sways him to stay in OKC.

I got 15 people to cook for. For the love of all that's holy. Please help me quit reading this thread.

[PierceFan4ever]

Man i'm so **** nervous. I can't imagine what OKC fans are going through right now. We've been talking about today since last year, some saying yeah its possible, others never really believing that Durant would ever be interested in Boston. We saw the teasing with IT. Our owners fireworks comments. A lot of disappointments between then. You see guys like Potroast tweeting about KD to Boston non-stop. Then **** starting to get real, Durant has a **** meeting with the Celtics. One of 6 teams to get a meeting with him. Everyone lost their **** then, then we get Al Horford who Durant really wants and we all go crazy. Then Brady (BRADY) starts recruiting Durant. All of this has been too much. KD has to come here.

[soxfan2003]

And if he does come, the Celtics will have to make all the cap moves we all know about, but they have pitched Amir Johnson on re-signing if he isn't claimed by another team. He's apparently open to the idea with a "wink wink" that they will take care of him next year if they can/

That would be huge. Much rather rely on him for 20 mpg than Sullinger.

I'd just trade one or a few of your many picks for someone legit

[Froob]

I wonder how late KD waits.

[BakersDozen]

Become legendary KD, Boston is your DESTINY!

Cmon Durant.......throw us a fn bone. Already startin to get sh*t from the old lady because I've been on my phone all day.

[BigTrade92]

Bringing Amir back would be clutch if KD comes.

Really like his game and would be a perfect bench big for us.

[Smitty731]

Apparently Al Horford and Isaiah Thomas are texting him like crazy. And Isaiah is trying to convince Crawford to take the room exception if they land KD.

They also said Ainge asked for one more chance to talk to him, but they are staying true to what they set up. Everyone got their shot and OKC gets the rebuttal if you will.

[pac213up]

Same. I think the alpha dog stuff is silly. I think KD is a beta but with his talent it wouldn't matter.

It maybe silly but there are not too many beta stars leading NBA teams to titles.

Curry.

I did not say there were none. It is rare. I will stick with the Alphas - Bird, Jordan, KG, Duncan, Magic, Lebron, ect

Again I do not think KD will go to GSW. He does not want to play second fiddle.

[Andre Roberstan]

Man i'm so **** nervous. I can't imagine what OKC fans are going through right now..

Just dying. KD is our city.

That's no exaggeration. To us it's basically a referendum on every bit of progress we've made in the last 20 years as a city. Whether that's true or not, it feels like it.

We already can't get free agents. If we can't get our own we just have to pray Presti keeps hitting in the draft.

What about the reported phone call with Jerry West yesterday?

That's not really true to his word...
