Kyrie Irving critical of Bucks after Nets' loss: 'They were a little reckless'

In addition to being a full-time basketball player again, Kyrie Irving is also a full-time Milwaukee Bucks hater.

Irving and the Brooklyn Nets lost a tough game in overtime to the Bucks on Thursday. After the game, Irving had some shade for the Bucks, calling them out for what he felt was an overly physical style of play.

“They were playing pretty physical,” Irving said of the Bucks, per Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News. “I think they were a little reckless at times. Just on a lot of their fouls. Or a few of their fouls.

“That’s who they are,” the star guard added. “But I think it was just reckless at times.”

Irving, who shot 9-of-22 with just three free-throw attempts, got roughed up by the Bucks several times in the game. He also struggled to get his shot off down the stretch with the tight defense Jrue Holiday was playing on him.
