Kevin Durant’s legend grew even in defeat
NY Post
Kevin Durant threw up a Hail Mary pass. That’s what it looked like in the air, anyway. A heave. A spin and a prayer. A turnaround shot for the ages.
A Game 7 shot maybe no other player on the planet could have made. Running on fumes after again playing the full 48 minutes, Durant needed every last ounce of energy and every inch of his 7-foot-5 wingspan to get the damn thing off as he faded away, 24 feet from the basket, falling toward the sideline as the pit bull defending him, P.J. Tucker, looked on. The Nets were down two when the ball left Durant’s hands, and they were tied when the ball fell through the net with 1 second left in regulation.
