Kyrie Irving’s Latest Instagram Probably Won’t Sit Well With Celtics Fans

Kyrie Irving always had a feeling he’d end up a member of the Nets.

The All-Star point guard made his four-year, $140 million deal official Sunday by putting pen to paper. Many speculated Irving would sign with Brooklyn, even after promising C’s fans he’d re-sign long-term in Boston.

But his two seasons in green were tumultuous, to say the least, and had him eyeing greener pastures as early as February, supposedly.

Growing up in New Jersey, Irving probably he thought he’d be playing in East Rutherford, but it seems like he always envisioned playing for the then-home state Nets. At least that’s what we gathered from his latest Instagram post, in which he claimed signing with the Nets has “always been in the cards.”
