It wasn’t that long ago when Portland Trail Blazers guard C. J. McCollum blew kisses to Orlando Magic small forward Evan Fournier.

However, we don’t know if that’s more disrespectful to Fournier than the way Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving nearly blew his ankles out with a sleek and sick crossover move during Friday’s contest at TD Garden, but we’re sure that it’s going to be added to the ever-growing montage of crazy things Irving does on the court.

Kyrie Irving was trying to get into the paint with Fournier fronting him. Smelling blood, all Irving had to do was change his pace and direction to lose Fournier, who now joins the grave of bodies the Celtics star has victimized this season.

In all fairness to Evan Fournier, he didn’t make that big of a fool of himself, as he was able to stay on his feet, avoiding further humiliation.

To add salt to his wound, however, Fournier finished the contest with a bad 3-for-13 shooting from the floor, scoring just seven points in a 118-103 road loss to the Celtics, the Magic's seventh-straight setback.

Boston, meanwhile, will travel to Indiana for a date with the Pacers this Saturday.
