Kyrie Irving and His Disappointing Season Run
Kyrie Irving, from the Boston Celtics has recently been eliminated from the playoffs by a dominant Milwaukee Bucks squad led by Giannis Antetokounmpo. The reason this is such a big deal, is because Kyrie left the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James to start a new team and try to be a leader. This did not end up to be such a good idea, for many reasons. Irving was seen giving up in the final seconds of the game and has also thrown shade at his teammates, which is a terrible thing to do in a team sport, since it leads to problems in the locker room and affects the team as a whole while they are on the court. Kyrie giving up wasn't an excuse for the Celtics to lose. The Boston Celtics had a great team before Kyrie and the year before that they even managed to take LeBron James to Game 7 and although they got eliminated they made it further without him than with him.The reason i agree with the opinion that they had no reason to lose is because Irving is arguably a top two point guard in the N.B.A. (National Basketball Association) Now that the the season is over and Kyrie is a free agent this summer, he will have time to decide to which team he wants to go to. Irving is going to go down as one of the best point guards to ever play the game,as of right now he has had an extravagant career and is a future hall of famer. No matter where he lands, he is for sure to improve the team team as a whole. He had a little slump in this years playoffs but best believe he is going to come back next year and dominate his position like we are all use to seeing him do.

BAD CALL
The worst call in the NFL history happened this year 2019. The referees didn't call the big pass interference on the Rams when they were going up against the Saints. This bad call made the Saints lose it all. They lost the semi-finals to the Rams and their chance to advance to the Superbowl. After this horrible call the NFL had to make some changes. The NFL added a new rule where the coaches can now challenge plays where the if the coaches think it was a bad call or that they know it should have been a pass interference then they could throw their red flag and challenge the play. Although it was a bad call some people really don't care or they're happy the refs didn't call it. the people who don't care or are happy about it were the people going for the Rams because they're against the opposing team and just want to see their own team advance to the Superbowl, which didn't end up well for them as they lost to the New England Patriots and their star quarterback Tom Brady. The Saints should've been going up against the Patriots but maybe another year they'll make it with the right calls and fair games.
