I'm learning how tough these action shots are to get … they happen so fast. It's hectic following the action, then checking your settings in between plays. It's a lot of guessing and adjusting as you go. (Photo by Kevin Durant/ The Players' Tribune)

I've been in some big games in my career, in big arenas that were loud and packed. I've played on national TV. That all felt small compared to this night.
