Nov. 28 (UPI) -- Kyrie Irving used his Instagram to respond to criticism he received from Boston Celtics fans as his Brooklyn Nets played his former team in Boston.
Irving -- who left the Celtics for the Nets this off-season in free agency -- did not play in the 121-110 loss Wednesday at TD Garden. Fans had posters plastered on the streets of Boston featuring Irving's picture under the word "coward." Fans during the game chanted "Kyrie sucks" and "Where is Kyrie?"
