The former Celtic was at one point expected to sign an extension and remain in Boston for the long term but instead eschewed that route, joining with Kevin Durant in Brooklyn.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><\/figure>\n<p>At the time, Irving cited his grandfather\u2019s recent death as well as wanting to be closer to his hometown in New Jersey for the move.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Drama has followed Irving to the Nets, most recently with his standoff with Mayor Eric Adams over the COVID-19 vaccine. And there\u2019s certainly no love lost between Irving and the Boston fans, who booed him on Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Irving\u2019s full-time return late last month gave the Nets a major boost ahead of the postseason. Though they had a disappointing regular-season record, Brooklyn got through the play-in round with a victory over Cleveland.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That set up Irving for a return to Boston in front of a hostile crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Irving exchanged words with Celtics fans in the tunnel as well. <\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Warning: Explicit language<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><\/figure>\n<p>Irving scored 39 points in the Nets\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/04\/17\/nets-lose-to-celtics-on-jayson-tatum-buzzer-beater-in-game-1\/\">Game 1 loss to the Celtics<\/a>.
