[Kyrie Irving] on Anthony Edwards ‘I got Kyrie’ comments: “I used it as motivation… i was at home with my family watching Game 7, and Ant comes out and says ‘I got Kyrie’… but also it’s a no-fear mentality, that’s why we love Ant.” — Kyrie finished with 30/5/4 on 12/23 FG in the win

    Kyrie really took the Kill Em with Kindness approach.

    Ant’s “charismatic confidence” is really starting to turn corny.

    There it is, Kyrie confirmed it, I’m not gonna clown Ant too hard though. Dude has that edge you want in a franchise player.

  5. funkstrong

    Damn I didn’t think “I got Kyrie” was slander. But if it motivates you then why the hell not use it.

  8. Active_Beautiful9570

    Ant looked completely outmatched. He’s gonna have a rough series. Dallas doesn’t have a hobbled Murray for him to switch onto and drop 40+

  9. Boring_Bill2430

    But now Ant is going to use this Kyrie quote as motivation. Fuck.

    Ant 🐜 did not in fact, bring that ass 🍑

  12. Statistician_Visual

    Y’all tried to kick this man out the league. Shameful.

  13. Affectionate_Ad5068

    This shit is great for the game. It’s all love for the players, they love this chirping, makes them play better and with and edge. Super fun for fans too

    It’s just funny to me that so many people make fun of Luka and say he has poor conditioning when ANT was tired as hell out there and Luka’s making huge defensive plays in the second half. I’m not knocking Edwards – I think he’s great and will only get better. But Luka and Kyrie are just so electric

    I respect Ant saying it and actually going through with it. Was it stupid? Probably. But the series isn’t over and I don’t think he’ll be as gassed in game 2.

    There are just certain guys you don’t want to poke. Kyrie and Luka are two of them. Although I do respect Ant trying to make a name for himself, he just has to back it up.

    Kyrie is going to keep that energy if Ant tries to guard him again though.

    This is the most manufactured narrative from next to nothing I’ve ever witnessed personally. The guy who was going to guard a guy said he was going to guard a guy. Incredible discourse

  18. mr_antman85

    He’s a young player and I loved that he wanted the challenge but now he knows he doesn’t have to guard the other team’s best player because it will wear you out. Minnesota needs Edwards on the offensive end.

    Jesus. Get Draymond out of there. He crowds the dais and he sucks.

  20. Abject_Bank_9103

    Ant “handcuffs” Edwards last 2 games:

    Jamal Murray: 35/3/3 on 13/27 shooting

    Kyrie Irving: 30/5/4 on 12/23 shooting

    Ant between the two games: 12/40 scoring 35 total

    I guess his handcuffs are the sex kind cause he’s getting fucked.

  21. Witty-Stock

    Ant got schooled out there.

    He looks like a guy who’s hit the wall. He’s been … not good the past two games and he could barely move in the 4th quarter.

  22. Tehni

    This is from the post game interview from game 7? It came off to me more like just a fact that he’s going to be the defender on Kyrie, not like “I’m gonna destroy Kyrie”

  23. doggie_doggie

    Kyrie said that Ant and his team just came from a grueling game 7 and legs are tired… and Kyrie said HOPEFULLY they get back on Game 2 and send a little bit more

  27. inefficientmarkets

    This is exactly like when Kyrie came into the league and said he could take Kobe 1on1. And then Kobe tried to put 50 or 100k on the line for it

  28. iDecide7

    Ant “Mouthy” Edwards.
    That’s all I got to say about him.

  30. TomatilloUnlucky3763

    Kyrie just about ran Ant off the edge of the Earth.

  31. huffinator20

    I wouldn’t want Ant to be any different. He openly accepts challanges and talks his shit when winning or losing.

  32. knowitall190

    Kyrie is one of the players that almost impossible to contain and defend

  33. GrandaddyGreenTea

    You guys all owe Gilbert Arenas an apology

  34. iambiggzy

    Uncle Drew: “this ain’t what you want, Youngblood!”

  37. ResponsibleAnt9496

    Rooting for the Mavs because of Kyrie. Was a pleasure watching him in BK.

  38. coolmcbooty

    Ant knew what he was doing when he said that. Yes he technically just stated a fact on his defensive matchup but he’s a famous athlete, he knew how people would take that as
