Kyrie Irving gives fans a befitting reply for trash talking
The Nets were awarded free throws, Kyries standing near the sidelines heard fans chirping at him. One of the fans said “Kyrie you need LeBron?”, to which Kylie responded, “Got y’all a championship and motherf**ker still ungrateful”.
To which, a fan responded “Yeah just one, just ONE”, which basically proved Irving’s point of the fans being ungrateful.

This is not the first time Cavaliers fan have been disrespectful to the ex-Cavs duo. LeBron James visited the Cavs after a long time due to the pandemic and put on a show at his home.
James attempted a buzzer-beater at the end of 3rd quarter and missed it. Then he saw a man celebrating a bit too much on a missed shot in just the 3rd quarter.
The man was not just a fan, he was the Cavs Chief of Staff, to which the King looked back twice and nodded his head, and prepared something for him in the 4th quarter.
LeBron ended with 46 points and scored 21 points in the 4th quarter as an answer towards the Cavs executive.
