This is the same Kyrie who said he was impressed by the Celtics ball movement. lol If Kyrie keeps on chucking the Celtics fans will chase him out of town. He has no idea how bad it will get if he doesn't change his game.

IT was 48 mins of pure effort and heart and was a great playmaker for them. He didn’t want to be one in the future...he WAS one.Over in the celtic forum many are questioning kyrie already. Granted it's early but they're concerned if he's a real leader like he thinks he is. Also sounds like some are missing IT's type of game.
1) I really don't think they wanted to pay IT max dollars.
2) Crowder was somewhat expendable for them with Brown in the fold. They thought Brown was ready to assume Crowder's role and grow beyond that. And Brown looks legit this season.
3) They knew they weren't contenders in the next couple years with Cleveland and Golden State. So they pushed the can down the road with a higher upside PG/star in Irving and letting their younger core grow.
4) The Nets pick was a good steal for us though. But trading IT and Crowder made a decent amount of sense as they were more win now players wheres Kyrie, Brown, Tatum, Hayward, Smart, Rozier is a core that will probably peak in about 2-3 years, a time when LeBron is well past his prime and GS is probably broken up in some form.
Also he was uber effective off the ball. Look at Breakdowns I’d their offense. IT really didn’t eat off ISOs. Stevens called plays that had him off ball and he’d attack off angles and cuts. Kyrie is a great scorer he will eventually learn these plays and run them better than IT
Boston realgm fans comments on kyrie
"WHY IS KYRIE JUST STANDING THERE AT THE THREE POINT LINE IN THE CORNER???"
"Kyrie is so un-involved I literally think he's on the bench.... and then I see him on the floor."
"Kyrie is SO SO bad at defense. 1000% worse than IT"
"Kyrie is **** killing us on both ends. This is bullsh*t."
And 5 turnoversKyrie once again had a very Kyrie stat line...21 points on a shaky 7 for 17 shooting, with 6 assists, 6 rebounds, and 4 fouls.
