I remember it. In fact, I can recall exactly where I was when it happened. It was July 5th, with an almost-sprained index finger and tired eyes, I clicked refresh endlessly on ESPN, Yahoo and The Players Tribune’s homepages, while waiting on the buzz of a Wojbomb notification. It eventually happened; an article was uploaded announcing that Kevin Durant would be donning the famous green and stepping onto the Garden’s parquet.
Like a shot in the arm, the adrenaline was coursing through me; not just as a Boston Celtics fan but as a lover of the game, this was major.
