CLEVELAND, Ohio – It would have seemed crazy to say three years ago when Kyrie Irving was hitting the three pointer that secured the Cavaliers first NBA Championship. But has Irving became the NBA’s version of a bad luck charm?

Celtics fans may certainly think so. In a recent interview with NBC Sports, Jackie MacMullan laid out everything that has gone wrong since the C’s acquired Irving.

“They traded for Kyrie Irving…and ever since then nothing has gone right. Nothing!” said MacMullan, who pointed out how facts like Gordon Hayward getting hurt, Irving getting hurt and the latter potentially leaving for free agency.

“[The Celtics] set themselves up for the perfect situation and it’s just all in a heap,” MacMullan continued.

Most rumors have Irving leaving the Celtics for the Brooklyn Nets this offseason. But even MacMullan, one of the leading reporters on Boston sports isn’t sure that’s going to happen, considering Irving is ghosting everyone.

“I think the one thing we can say about Kyrie is he changes his mind a lot,” she said. “Maybe he hasn’t said anything because until it actually happens he’s not 100 percent sure it’s actually happening.”

The Celtics went to the Eastern Conference Championship game the season prior to acquiring Irving. With the star point guard and Gordon Hayward in place, the team was expected to contend for an NBA title. Instead, the Celtics were bounced in the second round.

Irving has received most of the blame for the Celtics demise, which came after he insisted on a trade from the Cavs that would make him the No. 1 guy for a franchise.
