Irving concluded his remarks about Boston with a warning for anyone considering playing for the Celtics.
"If any player is coming here, getting drafted here, thinking about coming here for free agency, getting traded here, I just think do your homework and make sure you know what you're getting yourself into. That's something I could offer," Irving said

World class researcher Kyrie Irving
Yep. We’re losing tomorrow now.
It would be so horrible to compete for titles and play for one of the most storied franchises in league history.
Much better to go to the Hawks or Wizards.
If any team thinks about getting Kyrie after he inevitably leaves the Mavs if they lose the final… it should do its homework and make sure it knows what it’s getting itself into.
Kyrie thinks this is like rocket science or something lol it’s not that hard to be beloved in Boston
Celtics fans will shower literally anyone, regardless of how talented they are, with unconditional love if they just hustle hard, take accountability and show that they care. and that love persists even after players leave, as long as they don’t badmouth the team or city (looking at you, Perk.)
I’m so excited to boo this man
Yeah they’re gonna boo the hell out of this guy tomorrow lol
Celtics fans on Kyrie: “If any team is thinking about picking him up, thinking about signing him, trading for him, I just think do your homework and make sure you know what you’re getting yourself into”
Saying this 3-1 down to the team you’re shittalking is wild
Kyrie: Don’t go to Boston – it’s like a cult. They love basketball and their players too much.
Lol one W and old petty Kyrie comes flying back
Kyrie, baby, what is you doin
It’s funny how it seems like almost every player other than Kyrie seemed to like Boston. Kemba, Hayward, Jrue, Porzingis, DWhite, Horford, the Jays, Smart, etc… It also can’t be a coincidence that the Celtics tried building a superteam around him and it fell apart, but when they tried again, they won 64 games and are a game away from winning the Finals. He seems to lack so much awareness of how immature and condescending he was during his time in Boston.
I hate the celts but lets be honest, this is BS lol
This guy never changed, he’s always been like this, just selling snake oil everywhere he goes
the only thing that makes boston sports fans hate you is if you quit on the team. that or like… murder
Wait are these new comments. Jesus i would not take this lying down if i was a Celtics fan.
They about to get into a championship ring.
Why is he so salty he failed and ditched Boston? What exactly did Boston do? I’m sure they loved him when he was there
“That’s why i sabotaged the team and started posting halocaust denial films on my instagram”
This guy is such a fucking clown lol so much for “I’ve matured and moved past it”
Bro is really setting himself up here for a 5 game finals…smh
the Celtics org has been pretty mercenary but bro look who you’re playing for
here’s more of the quote
“I’m one of the people that’s on the outs,” Irving said with a laugh. “I’m perfectly fine with that, you know what I mean. I did it to myself. They don’t welcome me with a warm embrace, even though I know a lot of people in the organization and I’m friends still with some of them,” Irving said. “But, yeah, doing it to myself. And that’s what I was talking about in terms of accepting the choices.
But looking back, I would have shown my respect and have more of a council around me from some of the Boston Celtics that came before me to explain what the pressure is like.”
It’s possible for him to have effective philanthropic efforts, cool shoes, amazing basketball play and still be an iinsufferable dick.
Fuck Kyrie.
Honestly, I’d be more worried being drafted by the Lakers right now.
Good to see he’s devoting his whole attention to the Finals
The Joe Mazzulla quotes make me way happier than the Kyrie and Luka quotes this week. More Joe please.
Dis will make a Celtics victory even sweeter.
RIP to the Mavs Pr team
Kyrie: I do my own research
Kyrie: I did not research this major life decision/career move
True, if you plan on acting like Kyrie they will hate you. If you shut up and do your job they will love you.
It’s a weird franchise. On the one hand, they’re competitive and have a rich history. On the other hand, they get pissed when players schedule cosmetic surgery during game 7 of the ECF and no show their teammates while lobbying other players to join them on other teams in a year.
You really have to do your own research there.
