Since it began on the 30th of June, the trade request of Brooklyn Nets star forward Kevin Durant has held the NBA media sphere captive both literally and figuratively, with little other movement in the Association unconnected to where the mercurial swingman might be suiting up next season.
Fans of the Boston Celtics of course knew that better than anyone save perhaps Nets fans with their star wing Jaylen Brown a frequently-named part of trade talks of dubious seriousness and endless rounds of leaks and counter-leaks. So, on Tuesday morning, when word broke of the Nets’ statement that the two sides had reconciled, effectively bringing the Durant trade saga to an end. quite a few members of NBA and Celtics Twitter took to the league’s unofficial social media site to share their feelings on the topic.
This is what they had to say.
