Details from the failed Kyrie Irving experiment in Boston continue to surface, and this time, it was former Celtics teammate Marcus Morris who lent insight to Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News.
Morris, like Irving, departed the Celtics in free agency this summer. The 30-year-old forward signed a one-year deal with the New York Knicks and compared his new locker room with Boston's old one:
“The teams are different. We don’t have that one guy where it's like, okay, he's first. It's a team thing. No knock on Ky, but obviously he's a superstar, he's first. Sometimes his emotions were put in front of the team. I think here, we're all transparent with each other. We can all go up to each other and be honest with each other. That's the biggest thing, when you can go out and speak to your brother.”
There were multiple reports last season concerning the Celtics' broken locker room dynamic, with Irving, who is now a Brooklyn Net, at the center.
