Boston Celtics legend Kevin Garnett feels Kyrie Irving crossed a line when he stomped on the team's logo at midcourt after the Brooklyn Nets won Game 4.

"So nobody gonna say anything about Kyrie stomping 'Lucky'? We just gonna act like we didn't see that," Garnett wrote on Instagram. "... You can't do that. That's not cool on no level. All of us need to be better," he added.
Shortly after Irving stomped on the logo, a Celtics fan threw a water bottle at the former Boston guard as Irving was heading to the locker room. The individual is facing the charge of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and he's been banned from TD Garden for life.
His actions are the latest incident between fans and players so far these playoffs, including others in New York, Philadelphia, and Utah.
Irving was magnificent in Game 4, finishing with 39 points on 6-of-12 shooting from 3-point range and 11 rebounds. The Nets star is averaging 24.7 points through four postseason games.
Brooklyn can close out its first-round series against Boston with a win Tuesday in Game 5.
