Irving praised the Celtics right after Boston officially secured its sought-after 18th championship, referring to their 2023-24 roster as one of the best defensive teams in league history.
Kyrie Irving noted, "I give credit to the Boston Celtics, while also staying motivated ... to continue to be better and demand more out of myself so I don't perform at that level."
In five games against Boston during the 2024 NBA Finals, Irving averaged 19.8 points - a stark comparison to his earlier postseason performance, highlighting the challenge he faced.
Reflecting on his performance, Irving commented, "It's not the best reflection, right, of who I am, especially when ... I have always known that going against some guys that I've played against is always going to be some of the toughest matchups."
