In today’s warm-up game, star Kyrie Irving led the Brooklyn Nets back to TD Gardens to challenge their old club Boston Celtics. Irving seems to take this game seriously. Before the game, Irving performed some mysterious and special rituals on the field.
According to reports in the US media, Irving burned sage and walked around the field holding it. It is understood that for centuries, Native Americans have always had the habit of burning sage for the purpose of purifying the body and mind.
Irving’s actions immediately aroused heated discussions. Some netizens said: “He should smoke these cigarettes to cleanse his brain.” “His late mother was from the Liyan Sioux Indian tribe, and there was a tradition of burning sage. But I don’t understand why Irving would do it. Some things he only heard when he was a kid.” Some netizens also expressed their understanding: “I don’t feel crazy at all. After all, we come from different cultures.”
Irving was the No. 1 pick in the 2011 draft. Irving has excellent skills and is considered one of the best players in the league today. However, outside of basketball, Irving’s words and deeds can be described as full of controversy.
Irving once put forward the “level theory”, which can be described as shocking the world, not only shocked the entire NBA circle, but even shocked the scientific community. In the 2019-20 season, the NBA decided to conduct a rematch in the Disney park in Orlando. Irving stood up and called for everyone to strike, but due to lack of appeal, it finally stopped.
Recently, Irving was first choked by the opponent because he attacked the former big brother LeBron James in the show. At the same time, Irving was fined by the league for refusing to accept media interviews. What’s interesting is that Irving has released some mysterious pictures and texts one after another on the personal social network site before, which made netizens even more imaginative. This time he burned sage directly on the stadium, which is expected to attract a new wave of public opinion.
