“I’m really mad at Kyrie,” Williams said last week at the Peach Jam. “I don’t like Kyrie. I do laugh at that and say that with tongue in cheek.”
Williams was under the impression that Strickland would play the point his senior year at St. Patrick, but when Irving transferred in from Montclair (N.J.) Kimberley, he played the point and Strickland stayed at the two. The duo led the Celtics to the 2009 New Jersey Tournament of Champions title, their third in four years.
“[St. Patrick coach] Kevin Boyle was going to play Dexter at the point his senior year and Dexter’s never played the point and I thought that’s what he was going to be in college,” Williams said.
“Kyrie goes in and so no longer is Dexter playing the point cause Kyrie’s so great,” Williams added. “I already told Kyrie, ‘You really made me mad. You played the point so Dexter didn’t get to do that and then you went to Duke too so you really made me mad.’
If Roy's mad now, wait till after Kyrie breaks Drew II and Marshall down...

However, K would never say that out loud to a reporter.

As much as I think Roy Williams is a douchebag, I have to point out that Roy said he was joking around as he was making these very comments, it's even part of the quote in this thread. There are plenty of reasons to dislike Roy, just don't think this is one of them. I actually think it's kind of funny.

Oh, I know he said he was joking, but with all the petty whining he's done in recent months, I'm not sure I entirely believe him.

I hear ya, gadzooks. It reeks of, "I'm not doing my job as a coach. I take full responsibility for the this loss . . . " Roy would whine just before throwing a few more of his players under the light blue bus.
