Good assessment:

Hopefully Durant is taking his talents to Martha's Vineyard.

Spoiler:
1. The timing of the Celtics meeting and everything just seemed WAY too convenient to me... Horford one minute is going to back to Atlanta, the next minute he signs with THE CELTICS. Then you hear tweets that he preferred Washington's talent over ours... What made him change his mind? Then you hear a little while later that the Durant meeting was STILL GOING ON when Horford signed.

2. Durant was IN BOSTON the night before the meeting with the Celtics... he wasn't in ANY OTHER city of a team that was interested in him.

3. HE FLEW BACK ON TOM BRADY'S PRIVATE JET. Think about this, they said that our meeting was approximately 4 Hours long when in reality it was probably longer than that because I'm sure they talked ON THE JET too. Not only was Tom Brady on the jet but it was rumored that Ainge, The Owners, and the Celtics players were on there too! YOU KNOW THEY TALKED ABOUT BOSTON.

4. Durants favorite player is LARRY BIRD, he also said in the past that the Celtics organization was SECOND TO NO ONE. Everyone thought from the beginning that we had NO SHOT at Kevin Durant but we beat out organizations like THE SPURS, CLIPPERS, LAKERS, HEAT, KNICKS all BIG MARKETS and we are one of Durants final 3 choices?!?

5. Durant tweeted out back in 2010 that players need to stop forming these "Super Teams" and compete against the best they shouldn't be trying to team up and play together with them!

6. Danny Ainge has stated that he was going to Draft Durant had he been available when the Celtics picked... he had a close relationship with Durants mother, Durant is very close to his mother as evident by his MVP speech, you don't think that she may have a role in helping him pick the city he plays in should he LEAVE OKLAHOMA CITY?


All of these things to me make me believe he's coming to Boston it all just seems TOO CONVENIENT to me!

SO #KDToBoston !!!!!!!!

Now please excuse me while I prepare for complete and udder disappointment tomorrow when he doesn't indeed sign with us....


As a Knicks fan, I must say, I buy what your selling...it seems like you have a great chance.


As far as I can tell the "KD-spent-Friday-night-in-Boston-and-flew-to-the-Hamptons-WITH-Brady" thing hasn't been substantiated. As far as we can tell Brady and KD only overlapped at the meeting, and there's no reason to believe KD spent Friday anywhere other than the Hamptons after meeting for GSW and LAC for hours each that day.

I agree with that. But, you're 27 years old...Miami is a major draw.


IMHO if I was 27 years old and KD.... I would probably only want to date hot woman that also are pretty darn bright that are not stalking me for my wealth/fame. More likely to find that in some sort of grad student at a Boston area college than in Miami.

At the end of the day, KD can party anywhere and pretty much tons of woman want to date famous guys that will be worth 500+ million. But does he want to end up like a lot of nba players with a bunch of woman just using him?

I see weather/taxes as the real advantage of Miami over Boston but if he is concerned with weather, GSW better choice. And if he is concerned with endorsements, I feel Miami is a terrible choice since he is unlikely to win it all there and his national profile will just get hurt.


In regards to the women Miami has them hot as hell and a dime a dozen. It's like South America and nothing under an 8. Everyone has different tastes it just seems that 90% of the NBA has the same ones.

At this point i'm just assuming you're in on the reverse jinx lol

Here's a pretty good read for KD from Curt Shilling.

Didn't Curt Schilling get fired from ESPN for being anti-LGBT?

Curt needs to head out to Tim Thomas' bunker and hang himself.

Return to Boston Celtics
