After the game, Kyrie spoke about the treatment he receives from Celtics fans, noting that it is like an ex who still hasn't gotten over you. Kyrie just wants to move on, but the Celtics faithful can't find it within themselves to do the same thing.
"It's like the scorned girlfriend who wants an explanation on why I left, but still hoping for a text back," Irving said. "I'm just like, 'It was fun while it lasted.'"
For now, Kyrie's heart is in Brooklyn, and the Celtics fans will just have to deal with that, for as long as they live. Besides, it's not like Kyrie did much for that franchise while he was there, anyway.
