Kyrie Irving confirmed yesterday on Instagram that he and R&B singer Kehlani are officially a thing. There have been rumors here and there but this is the first concrete evidence we have.
If you were lucky enough to watch Kyrie Irving last night in the 4th quarter of the Cavs-Wizards game, you know that you watched something special. The dude was making every shot imaginable. Drives, step back jumpers off the dribble, threes… he was NBA Jam On Fire in the 4th, going on a 10-0 run by himself (for either team) while dropping 19 points in the quarter. After around his 8th point in the quarter, I just found myself laughing after every shot he made.
After one of Kyrie’s baskets, the Wizards called a timeout (because they were helpless and defeated) and thankfully FSO’s cameras were pointed to the Cavs bench and caught LeBron giving Kyrie some words of encouragement. Encouragement being “THAT’S WHAT THE FUCK YOU DO! THAT’S WHAT THE FUCK YOU DO!
Isn’t that sweet? Tristan, Kyrie, Kevin and Iman taking the time to give their head coach some love during this holiday season. Bunch of class acts, these guys.
Here’s a couple quotes (and translations) from the video:
“His growth and his development has been great.” – Tristan
He didn’t know what he was doing at first but now he does.
“He’s one of our leaders. He’s our coach, our head coach.” – Tristan
We listen to him, but we also listen to LeBron. Oops, I should probably refer to him by his proper title.
“[He] allows you to see your mistakes, make them, grow from them and then keep playing.” – Kyrie
He lets me play for as long as I want. Seriously. I played with a broken knee cap.
“I think Blatt does a good job of taking a step back and never feeling like he has to fake it….He’s willing to hear suggestions [to] try and help himself guide through.” – Iman
Dude knows his role. Who run this motha? Bron.
Oh, right. I meant Coach Blatt.
“I played for numerous coaches, but for him, he’s even-keel all the time.” – Kyrie
I played for numerous coaches, but…..(screams internally because he was planning on saying he’s the best at something but he can’t because he also played for Coach K)…..he’s pretty chill.
