As Stefan Bondy writes Saturday, it’s an article of faith around the NBA that Kyrie Irving’s tenure in Boston is dependent on how far the Celtics go in the playoffs — and to what extent he and Kevin Durant want to create a super team somewhere else.
Friday night’s loss to the Bucks, put the Celtics down 2-1. Game 4 will be played Monday night in Boston.
Knicks fans have long dreamed about a roster centered on Durant, Irving and overall No. 1 pick, Zion Williamson None of that, of course, is guaranteed, or as Bondy writes, likely.
