Bruce Brown was interviewed after the Nets’ practice ahead of Game 3 vs the Boston Celtics in their first-round matchup. He was asked about going back to Boston, his hometown, Kyrie Irving’s comments about Boston, and about his specific experiences with racism growing up in Boston.<br />Brown talked about what it feels like traveling back home to play a playoff game. He was specifically asked about his time as a fan growing up, and if he went to many games. This was his response: “I used to come to a lot of games when I was younger… the last game I went to was, Kobe played here and he destroyed them… I used to come to a few games for sure.”<br />Brown was also asked about Kyrie Irving’s comments and what he thought about them: “When I was younger I experienced a few things for sure… you grow up and you get used to it… I definitely in my high school days experienced a few things for sure… I try not to worry about it too much.”<br />Rachel Nichols then expanded upon the question, asking about specific experiences he dealt with growing up. Brown gave this answer: “High school… I was called a few names before… I’ve been called a monkey before because I was dating the opposite race at the time… it was tough at the time, but now it’s just like whatever.”<br /><br />- #celtics #NBA #CLNS<br />The CLNS Media Network is the leading provider for video/audio content.
