This past offseason, Kyrie Irving opted not to re-sign with the Boston Celtics, the team he’d been with the previous two campaigns. Instead, he went a little West and joined the Brooklyn Nets, a ballclub that had just lost in the first round of the playoffs the previous Spring.
Some were happy about the move, some weren’t, some simply understood it. All-time great, Kevin Durant, understands why Kyrie left Boston, but believes both he and Kevin Durant chose the wrong New York club, per Ian Begley of SNY.
“If they did the Nets, I thought they should have done the Knicks, if I’m being honest,” Durant said.
