Kyrie Irving calls chants from Knicks fans a ‘distraction’

Kyrie Irving

Kyrie Irving heard the chants from New York Knights fans on Friday night, but he’s not making much of them.

Irving helped his Boston Celtics to a 113-99 road win over the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Knicks fans chanted “We Want Kyrie!” during the second half of the game — a reference to their desire for the Knicks to sign the point guard over the summer.

Irving was asked about the chants after the game and called it a “distraction.”

Irving also called a lot of the trade talk a bunch of “nonsense” to him.

Irving said before the season that he would re-sign with Boston. He has the opportunity to become a free agent after the season and the Knicks are a team expected to heavily pursue him.
