Just when you thought LeBron James and Kyrie Irving were mortal enemies, they turn that whole notion upside down.
James and Irving shared a nice hug and gave each other love as soon as the NBA season opener ended on Tuesday night. Take a look:

James’ Cleveland Cavaliers prevailed 102-99 over Irving’s Boston Celtics.
There was tons of drama over the summer after reports said Irving had demanded a trade out of Cleveland because he no longer wanted to be in James’ shadow. Other reports stated that there was some beef between the two over the trade request.
If that’s the case, they certainly put it all aside in the name of sportsmanship on Tuesday. Either that, or maybe reports of the friction between them are overblown.
