On June 7, Beijing time, the Mavericks lost to the Celtics 89-107, falling behind 0-1 in total. Irving withstood the boos of the whole court, shooting 6 of 19, 0 of 5 three-pointers, 0 free throws, scoring 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 3 turnovers, with a plus/minus of -19 and the lowest in the game. Owen has lost 11 consecutive games against the Green Army!

31.6% shooting, the lowest in Irving's Finals career! After the game, he tweeted in response: "Put GOD (God or God) first, united!" This mission is more important than ourselves, Hélà! In the post-match press conference, Owen said of the boos: "I'm used to this environment. It's just that it's a little louder here. ”

During the game, whenever Irving catches the ball, or even when he wants to catch it, the North Shore Garden Arena will shout, "Kyrie Sucks!" After winning G1, Celtics fans did not let Irving go, shouting "Farke Irving, Farke Irving" after the game, while stepping on the doll wearing Irving's jersey.

Before the Finals began, Irving offered the Celtics: "I wouldn't be here if I hadn't had my experience in Boston. I'm grateful for my history here, which is to accept what I've been through and forgive others and forgive myself. I appreciate the fanaticism of the fans here, but I don't go into the field with fear. ”

Next, let's talk about the key points, what is the big feud between Irving and the Celtics? It all started in the summer of 2017, when Irving requested a trade and decided to leave the Cavaliers. In the end, the Cavaliers sent Irving to the Celtics in exchange for Thomas Jr., Crowder, Zyžić, a first-round pick and a second-rounder, when Irving's contract expired with two years remaining.

In the 2017-18 season, Irving played 60 regular season games for the Green Army, averaging 24.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.1 steals per game, shooting 49.1%, 40.8% and 88.9% from three. On April 6, 2018, Irving underwent surgery on his left knee and was reimbursed for the season. Irving didn't play a game in the playoffs, and the Celtics lost to the Cavaliers in the East finals.

In October 2018, Owen officially made a comeback. Speaking to Celtic fans at North Shore Garden, he said, "If you want me back, then I plan to renew my contract with Celtic next year!" After that, Owen had some unhappiness with Shuangtanhua, and in February 2019, Owen changed his words: "I will make the most beneficial contract renewal option for myself." ”

In the 2019 offseason, Irving joined the Nets as a free agent, and Green fans regarded him as a traitor. In the 2020-21 season, two things Owen did in the North Shore Garden completely angered fans: 1. Walking around the stadium with sage in hand, Owen said that he wanted to "purify the energy"; 2. Deliberately stepping on the head of the Celtic logo with the sole of the shoe.

In the same game when he stepped on the logo, a fan threw a drink bottle at Owen after the game, and the fan was arrested by the police. In the first round of the 2022 playoffs, the Celtics swept the Nets 4-0. Celtics fans continued to greet Irving with invective and boos, and Irving responded with a middle finger and was fined $50,000 by the NBA.

Irving has matured a lot now, but his grudge with Celtics fans has exceeded the game itself. Final question: Do you think Owen can break out in G2?
