2012 NBA All-Star Game

We’re a long time away from the Durant Decision and recruiting pitches and rumors are already underway. The Star has tied the Raptors to Kevin Durant by way of the team’s aim to clear salary cap space in 2016 and Durant offhandedly mentioning that he was a fan of Vince Carter and the Raptors while he was growing up.

If there is this much hype right now, can you imagine what it’ll be like in two years? We’re already making the whirlwind around LeBron’s Decision Part II look level-headed by comparison.
