Something else to point out about this kid. He tweeted a few weeks ago about the Warriors potential death lineup of Curry, Thompson, Green, Durant, and Dirk. I know there's a counterpoint here but, from that tweet, it sounds to me like this kids not just some Celtics troll trying to stir the pot if he was looking forward to that potential lineup.
He's a kid who graduated high school in Rhode Island this year.  He's a Pats and Celtics fan.

Oh hello again! I get that he's a Celtics fan, but point is it sounds like he was excited for the possibility of Durant joining the Warriors too.

I'm back and forth on this. My first normal instinct is this is a fanboy putting his neck on the line and hoping he's right, and no one should listen to him, but I must say that he is adamantly claiming this. One thing I conjure is that he truthfully believes what he's saying. Doesn't mean it's true, but it seems like he got this impression from somewhere. Let's just hope that he's right, and if it was a lucky guess who cares!

The best why to look credible is seeming adamant ... I`m not saying this is a hoax though... I hope he isn`t :D

I understand your scepticism, LarBrd, but, again, crazier things have happened (see below), so discrediting him solely based on his age and his interests is kind of silly.

SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY A Cs EXEC WOULD LEAK THIS. KD CLEARLY DOESNT WANT THIS LEAKED. THIS WOULD BE IDIOTIC.

I know we all want something to grab on to that says KD to Boston but this is not it my friends.
they wouldn't.  It's nonsense.  He might be right but its a pretty easy guess to make.   

Guess we will know shortly whether durant is coming here or not - but I would in no way credit this guy as an insider if durant actually signs here.

If it happens within a minute of midday. Fine.
Sure whatever... the biggest scoop ever - made by a kid who just graduated high school in Rhode Island.  K...

LeBron's return to Cleveland was first reported by an unknown 20-year old gym trainer, but whatever. (http://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2014/07/meet_the_20-year-old_personal.html)

I dont' think Durant has made his decision yet.  He's gonna wake up, alert his people, and they'll announce it.   So I dont' really believe any "insiders" - regardless of age.

Fair point. In any case, the waiting game continues...

You don`t believe any reports or "reports" which is very understandable and possibly the right way to go but at the same time you post what is going to happen based on ... nothing!

It's being reported that well known French vanilla guy, Kevin Durant, has switched to Irish creme this morning in his coffee :o

Is that rumor true? My thought is that KD can stay in OKC, but it would be so wonderful to see him on the Celtics. I have long without entering this forum, since the time Big Three, but I love the family Celtics.

He appears to just be some high school fanboy who is a Celtic diehard and is trolling (successfully).  Good for him. 

I just clicked through some of his tweets.  He's just a fan:  https://twitter.com/nmattioli12/status/697629249457487872

Here he is apparently attempting to troll by announcing his school district being closed for a day: 



I hope his guess about Durant is right too... but this kid has no credibility whatsoever.  Take it for what it's worth.

It turns out his school district really closed the following day : http://www.westwarwickpublicschools.com/about-wwps/wwps-announcements/noschool-fridayfebruary52016

The kid may or may not have inside info. Could just be a smart kid who can put two plus two together to make four or to make 1. This  is not rocket science people. All the evidence points to KD signing with Boston.
