Photo Of Kyrie Irving Signing With Nets Draws Predictable Twitter Reaction

Kyrie Irving is an absurdly talented (and rich) basketball player, but man, has he become a punchline.

Kemba Walker, Irving’s replacement in Boston, made his new contract official Saturday evening. Let’s just say the reaction to that announcement was much, much different from Green Teamers.
