I want to make it clear that this series is not over at all. That being said, I thought from the jump that the Mavericks were being slept on. Does a ball knower named Marty Mush have the Mavericks 25/1 before the season ever started? Sure does. Listen Kyrie off the court said some things that were really bad in the past, but I am only talking ball here and he is a top 2 point guard in the league paired with a top 5 player in the league. Kyrie also is a great teammate to him so it was all bound to work out.
I tried to explain this to Celtics fan Chris Klemmer, but he couldn’t comprehend why this would be funny to the casual viewer and not a Celtics fan. If Kyrie Irving who quit on the Celtics, thought he was better than everyone on that team, just was a disaster of a time with him being on that team, ends up hoisting the NBA Championship trophy at TD Garden, that would kill Celtics fans while the rest of the world laughts. Even if I didn’t have a future on the Mavs it would be funny to see because nobody wants to see Boston win. For them to be the clear best team all year and lose to Kyrie would be incredible. They match up perfectly against the Celtics but I will not get into that right now until they actually are in the NBA Finals.
From what I remember, Celtics fans hate Kyrie is because he had a lot of empty promises. He butted heads with Jaylen Brown a lot in the locker room. He also said he wanted to sign with the Celtics long term and then secretly was teaming up with Kevin Durant to go to the Nets. One time when he was on the Nets he stomped on the Celtics logo at mid court after he beat them. There is real bad blood here. He also would never take any responsibility when the team was losing or anything, but look he is a changed man and him and Luka are the perfect pairing and it seems like Dallas is treating him like the superstar he is. And look if you are a Celtics fan you have every right to absolutely despise him. For me its funny because I texted our resident Celtics fans Doogs and Dana Beers and both said it would be a disaster. Doogs went on to say he was selfish and destroyed the team internally. So yes it will be funny when I hit a 25/1 future and Kyrie hoists the trophy up on the Celtics logo.
