Must Cs: Celtics ready to move on from Kyrie Irving talk
Andy Marlin-USA TODAY Sports BROOKLYN, NY — Several Celtics embraced Kyrie Irving after they lost to his Nets in Brooklyn on Friday. Across the locker room they expressed exhaustion from all the talk about him, and are ready to move on to this season. Irving didn’t play, but the game revealed some rotation adjustments potentially coming through Stevens into December.
Brad Stevens: “They really punched us in the mouth. They scored 22 points in the first six minutes. Any day that you let a team get going like that, it’s going to be a long day.”
