Eric Bledsoe had some disrespectful comments for Terry Rozier following Game 2 of the first round playoff series between Boston and Milwaukee.
The Celtics took a 2-0 lead in their series with the Bucks on Tuesday thanks to a 120-106 victory in Boston. Following the game, Bledsoe dismissed Rozier and his impact in the first two games of the series. He was asked about his matchup with Rozier and pretended like he didn’t know him.
Eric Bledsoe on if he takes the matchup with Terry Rozier personally: “Who?” Bledsoe replied. “Terry Rozier,” a reporter said again. “I don’t know who the f*** that is,” Bledsoe responded.

Rozier scored 23 points in Game 2. In Game 1, he also scored 23 and had this step-back jumper with Bledsoe guarding him.

Bledsoe is obviously frustrated with his team’s performance thus far in these playoffs, but he comes off rather salty when dismissing a guy who has had a great first two games of the series. Maybe that Kentucky-Louisville rivalry is not lost on him.
