I've talked myself into seriously believing this can happen.... So It would be such a kick to the nuts if he isn't a celtic within the next 24 hours.

I think we all are right now, lol.

It would be a disappointment, but we can always go after a Butler type.

I told myself I wouldn't get my hopes up but, it's too late for that. I'll be crushed if he doesn't come here now.

I think we all are, sure. It's just a matter of degree, and disclosure.

I'm going to Steve Ballmer cry if KD doesn't go to the Celtics. Nothing in my life is going right and this would be awesome and bring some temporary relief.

KD meets with OKC, let's them know he won't return.

Wojbomb - Decision comes down to GSW and Boston.

KD announces he's coming to Boston.

We party.

The rumours tonight leading up to his decision are going to be unbearable. Tempted to give it all a miss and wait for the phone notification. At the same time though, I know it will be epic on here.

If he doesn't come celtics can try again next year, assuming he signs a 1+1 with OKC which I expect.

Way to go congrats bud.

Had to remind myself when i first woke up this morning that it wasn't a dream that the Celtics signed Al Horford and that there is a case of Focal Banger in the fridge.

Congrats to you and your wife DDB.

Kevin Durant's free-agency decision primer:
When, how and who?

A decision is expected by Monday at the latest

Boston Celtics: MOVED INTO PRIME POSITION. They brought Tom Brady. They signed Al Horford. They have the market, the team, the front office, and perhaps most importantly, the coach in Brad Stevens. Here, in fact, is what Durant said about having a great coach during the Thunder's second-round series vs. the Spurs:

"Having a really good coach is probably the most important thing in this league. You can have all the great players you want but you have to have someone to orchestrate it. That's what they have, a great coach that can put them in positions to utilize all their individual strengths and make them come together as a team. (Gregg Popovich is) the guy who's been here for the longest, having someone like that to orchestrate what you do obviously helps."
"You have to put the work in.
Nothing is given."
