Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving says the media and fans are blowing the video of him talking to Golden State Warriors superstar Kevin Durant at All-Star weekend way out of proportion, and he's not happy about it.

Before the 2019 All-Star game started in Charlotte, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant were captured on video while talking in the hallway. Of course, social media overreacted to the video and started to speculate that Irving and Durant were talking about teaming up next season.

Irving addressed the video on Wednesday when he spoke to local reporters, and Uncle Drew didn't mince words.

Irving is dead-on with this. Athletes are human beings too.

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant are very close friends, and they were literally just chatting before the All-Star game was starting. NBA players have lives off the court as well. They aren't talking about basketball 24/7.

Unfortunately for Irving, because he and Durant are set to become free agents this summer, they can't do anything with each other without drawing headlines. The two superstars were spotted hanging out after All-Star weekend and people started overreacting to that as well. It's just the world we live in.

Irving and Durant have been linked with the New York Knicks for some reason. Until free agency starts on July 1, we need to stop guessing where these star players are going to go.
