Kyrie Irving has expressed his frustration on numerous occasions this season, and he did so again on Sunday in a slightly more subtle manner.
When he arrived at the TD Garden for the Boston Celtics’ game against the Houston Rockets, Irving appeared to be annoyed that cameras were already in his face. He could be heard saying “I’m not gonna miss this s— when I’m done playing.”

Irving was then informed that his comments were recorded, to which he responded that he doesn’t care.
He said "I'm not going to miss any of this s**t when I'm done playing." then someone else told him "you're being recorded" and then he said "I don't care if it is"
So stop making every little thing he does about his free agency.— Ruchi Jain (@ruchijain4_) March 3, 2019
The Celtics have played inconsistent basketball all season, and they had lost four of their previous five games heading into Sunday’s matchup with Houston. Irving is clearly growing tired of dealing with the media, which we caught a glimpse of with some of his responses to questions after a recent loss. That’s probably what he was referring to with his remarks.
