It’s been a few seasons since Kyrie Irving left Boston in free agency to sign with the Nets, and Celtics fans still won’t let Irving hear the end of it.
Irving, who is still only allowed to play in away games due to New York City’s COVID-19 restrictions, was back in Boston on Sunday for the Nets’ 126-120 loss at TD Garden. Irving — as you may recall — upset plenty of Celtics fans after he stomped on the midcourt logo last year.
Late in Sunday’s game, Celtics fans erupted in a “Kyrie sucks” chant despite Jayson Tatum gesturing for them to stop. Irving could be seen laughing about the chants, and after the game, Irving had his own response to the treatment he received from the Boston faithful.
