BOSTON — Kyle Korver likes to think of himself as a well-reasoned, intelligent man. He believes in things he can see.
So this magical "switch" he’d heard so much about around Cleveland was no different than other figments of imagination. Santa Clause, Easter Bunny, tooth fairy, flip-switchers—they're all the same.
“I’ve always been told that it wasn’t real, that there wasn’t a switch that can just be flipped on,” Korver told Bleacher Report Thursday afternoon.
Korver brought this mentality with him to the court for the first 13-and-a-half years of his career. It’s helped him carve out a niche as one of the game’s premier long-distance snipers, which is why, over the past few weeks, he’s been shocked to discover that he was wrong all along.
