      Thanks captain obvious, who could have ever guessed that without your ‘brilliant’ input. like… DUH! Kyrie’s just doing what he needs to do to get into the mentality to drop BUCKETS! Same with Jordan would do. EMBRACE THE DARK SIDE!

    As a fan of the Celtics, the NBA shouldn’t fine Kyrie for yesterday, the fans actually love that Kyrie acknowledges them back, the NBA should let it slide, fans can be disrespectful too, that was an intense game Kyrie deserves the right to defend himself

      Fax, & I honestly think we should stop because obviously it didn’t help any

    Anyone that has a problem with Kyrie did must admit they have an issue with the fans as well. Can’t be ok with one and crucify the other

    Would Stephen A. have an issue with minimum wage customer service employees flipping off customers every single day when they inevitably receive verbally abusive customer responses? I think he would.

    These dudes are paid millions and PART OF THEIR JOb is dealing with the fans. I don’t really care that he did it, but he ultimately shouldn’t have

      Everyone job is to do there job not take verbal abuse or remarks

    • ScootMagoot46

      @TDreacts actually, you still don’t flip off customers. Grow up.

      I sew wat u sayin but overall it makes the viewing experience more entertaining, noone is getting hurt, and both sides cool with it

    LOL this season we’ve seen Stephen A slander kyrie to the heavens… only his dismay and dislike for C’s can be higher 😂 hardly even give the Celtics any credits, check the receipts

    As a Celtics fan you don’t fine. Let the fans run there mouth in an non racial way. But also Kyrie when he was on the Celtics said to the fans that if you guys will have me than I’ll resign. But then at the end of the season he left and went to the Nets. As a fan they have every right and Kyrie going back at the fans it’s good tv.

      Lol get over it, Kyrie isn’t the first player that ever left a team or the last but you Boston fans think your something special? You don’t own the man, focus on what you have

    • Luis Escobar

      April 18, 2022 at 11:15 pm

      @XMDPIR Celtics fans have every right to give Kyrie that smack just like ANY other fan base. No one said anything about thinking we’re special. And if anyone needs to “get over it” its clearly Kyrie. He always says he’s “past it” but he clearly isn’t- Boston is the toxic GF he chooses to go back to and engage with. That sounds like a Kyrie problem, not Boston’s.

    Took him a while to make it about the Lebron.🙄

    KD is thin skinned, so maybe he’ll get irked as well.

    he really likes saying the word “egregious”!!!​

    The reality of the situation is that Stephen A’s reality of the situation is never the reality of the situation.

    BBB went from Big Baller Brand to Brooklyn Bad Boys. I like watching bad boys. The villains of the NBA are more fun to watch.

      Idk why but your comment creeps me out lol

    Look, as long as Kyrie dropping buckets, who cares. Let that man do what he needs to do so that he can go out there put on a show. Same thing Jordan would do.
    LEAN IN, EMBRACE THE DARK SIDE!

    So Stephen A’s cool with Kyrie choice to answer back to fans and accept the fines, but he not cool w/ Kyrie making a choice for his body and accepting fines and losing money, this man a joke 😂😂 crazy how Kyrie balled out now he wanna switch sides

  18. Koh Smoger

    Uhm saying he would resign with Boston than backing out on his word, throwing teammates under the bus, not being a leader already having one foot out the door. Kyrie did plenty wrong.

    The media hates Kyrie because he stood up for Palestine the same way they hated Muhammad Ali for that too. Never go along with the media narrative.

  20. Vivian Fernandes

    April 18, 2022 at 4:47 pm

    It’s not just he not resigning… throwing teammates under the bus, not following up on his words & most of all stomping/desecrating lucky on the court is the reason why Boston fans despise him

  21. ScootMagoot46

    April 18, 2022 at 5:31 pm

    Grow up, Stephen A.

    Flipping of the fans is so immature.

  22. R Rogers

    Kyrie wasn’t rattled tho
