Boston Celtics fans have been waiting since the Olympics to express their frustration with Steve Kerr, and they took advantage of the opportunity on Wednesday.

Kerr and the Golden State Warriors faced the Celtics on Wednesday night at TD Garden in Boston, Mass. Fans who were in attendance rained their usual boos on the opposing team during pregame introductions, but they saved their most hostile reception for Kerr.

Tatum, who is the Celtics’ best player and helped lead the team to a championship last season, barely played during Team USA’s gold medal run at the Summer Olympics in Paris. Tatum was not part of Kerr’s rotation for most games. Some people even suggested that Kerr had it out for the five-time All-Star.

Tatum had a great attitude about his lack of involvement in Paris. He does not seem to be holding any sort of grudge toward Kerr, but the same clearly cannot be said for fans in Boston.
