During the start of the fourth quarter, Nets got the lead over the Knicks when Irving passed an alley loop to KD. After a poster dunk by Kevin, Kyrie was celebrating it in front of Knicks fans by yelling at them. He didn’t stop here, even in the postgame press conference he revealed what was the scenario on the court and how the crowd reacted to their comeback.

“East coast basketball at its finest people,” Kyrie Irving said during the postgame interview. “Just yelling random from the crowd, he wanted to want a reaction they got one I think I tapped the wrong person so I apologize to the random guy that I tapped he looked at me with a big surprise look on his face. I didn’t mean to but somebody said something I was just fed up with our performance and I’ve dealt with this east coast type of attitude in games since I was seven-eight years old so I’ve been in the trenches as they would say growing up”

Irving added, “I just stopped giving an ‘f’ about what their opinion was and I just started repping the best way I knew. It’s just always mutual respect across basketball culture out here I fall in line with a lot of great guards that have come from the New York City, New Jersey area I just want to put on a good show.”

In addition, Brooklyn is already eligible for the play-in tournament and if they are looking for the best spot in it, they need to win their remaining games against the Indiana Pacers and their seventh spot rival Cleveland Cavaliers in the east.
