Kyrie Irving has been at the center of some controversies, but his new teammate Tim Hardaway Jr. says that all the superstar really wants is peace.

“He’s awesome, man. I have nothing bad to say about the man at all,” Hardaway said about Irving on the Outta Pocket podcast. “All he wants is peace, to be honest with you.

“He shows it in the locker room, he shows it outside the locker room, he shows it when he’s around the guys when we’re just chilling out, relaxing.

“He’s a very smart human being. If you guys ever get the time out to really sit down with him, it’s a lot going on but it’s a log good sh*t that’s going on up there.”
