This series is not just a sports event but also a narrative of redemption and growth for players like Irving and Kristaps Porziņģis, who will face his former team. “The greatest thing I learned from Boston was just being able to, manage, not only my emotions, but just what’s going on on a day to day basis of being a leader of a team or being one of the leaders and having young guys around you that have their own goals? but you have to learn how to put the big picture first,” Irving says of his time Boston.<br/><br/>The dynamics of this Finals series are not just about the game, but also about the rich history of the players and the teams involved.
