As his Dallas Mavericks play the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals, Kyrie Irving is back in Boston.
Irving and the Celtics fan base are still very much at odds, with many devoted Boston supporters feeling that he mistreated the team while he was a player.
Paul Pierce, nevertheless, thinks Irving is attempting to mend fences with his former team based on some of his most recent public remarks.
On Monday’s “Undisputed,” Pierce stated, “It looks like Kyrie’s trying to make peace in Boston, which is never going to happen.”
Irving wasn’t afraid to voice his opinions or to be blunt when he originally departed the Celtics a couple years back.
He made some quite harsh remarks against the team, the community, and its supporters.
Since then, the majority of Boston Celtics supporters have viewed him as a villain, and he consistently faces jeers when he plays on the court.
This year, he has behaved a little more civilly, and it appears that Irving has moved past his period in Boston.
Will the fans follow suit, though?
