The Kevin Durant we knew and loved was typically not a volume shooter. But there were times when he got so piping hot, when the opposition was so helpless, or when there was no other way the Warriors were going to win.
On those occasions he filled it up, and it was a sight to behold.
Recently Durant sat down with the Wall Street Journal Magazine, and in just as rare of a display, filled it up — more than 4,700 words on the NBA, exhilaration, disaffection, every stop along the way that led him to Brooklyn (for now).
