The 2018-19 regular season was a tumultuous one for Kyrie Irving and the Boston Celtics.
There were constant questions about Irving's future, injuries up and down the roster and maddening inconsistency that resulted in a rather lackluster 49-win total when most expected the Celtics to win 60 games or more.
Now, the regular season is over and the playoffs have arrived, so Boston has a fresh slate. However, that does not mean Irving will forget how rough this season was, as the star guard said the year featured a lot of “bulls**t” for him and that there were some things he could have handled better as an individual, according to Jay King of The Athletic.
Of course, Irving is set to become a free agent this summer, and there has been rampant speculation about where he will end up. Will he stay with the Celtics? Will he head to the New York Knicks to potentially join Kevin Durant? Will he do something incredibly weird like sign with the Charlotte Hornets?
When it comes to Irving, no one really understands what goes through his mind, but what we do know is that he is one of the best point guards in the NBA.
On the season, the 27-year-old averaged 23.8 points, 6.9 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals over 33.0 minutes per game while shooting 48.7 percent from the floor, 40.1 percent from 3-point range and 87.3 percent from the free-throw line.
Kyrie Irving is in his second season with the Celtics after coming over in a trade that sent fellow guard Isaiah Thomas to the Cleveland Cavaliers during the summer of 2017.
