Kyrie literally sat down on TNT like 5 seconds after the game ended and basically acknowledged that he took it as a challenge that seemed kind of random/unwarranted and that it made him play harder but also that it’s not that deep it’s just competition and it’s also why we all like Ant. I don’t understand why you guys keep trying to act like there was nothing there. it’s not like it was some media conspiracy whipped up out of nowhere. Obviously him saying that affected the series to some extent. There’s nothing wrong with anything about it, he just kind of said something and then it affected how the opponent played, but it’s still something that happened
