In the first round of the Playoffs, the Boston Celtics will challenge the Brooklyn Nets. The opportunity for the Massachusetts franchise to cross paths with a former member of the house: Kyrie Irving. And the TD Garden should give him a hostile reception.
Indeed, the leader of the Nets did not leave a good memory among Celtics fans. The reason ? His attitude and his departure, when he had publicly announced his intention to extend. Still in touch with the Melbourne native, Jayson Tatum mentioned this situation.
“We obviously spoke together and there are some things he told me that he probably would have liked to do or do differently. But I think that’s part of life. No one is perfect, and you have to move on”, relativized Tatum in front of the press.
In the way of doing things, Irving was indeed not beyond reproach. In the failure experienced by the Celtics, the former Cleveland Cavaliers has some responsibility. But other factors also weighed on this team.
In any case, this tense relationship between Kyrie Irving and Boston supporters should add salt to this series!
