Ainge jumps on Kyrie Irving's flat Earth bandwagon

The latest in a line of flat Earth truthers in sports is … Boston Celtics GM Danny Ainge?

Check this out:

As you may know, he's referring to the fact that Kyrie Irving has repeatedly questioned if the Earth is round, although he once said he was trolling and then went back and explained his beliefs.

So, there are two explanations about that tweet:

1. Irving and Ainge have held extensive discussions about their respective beliefs about the shape of the Earth and the guard convinced the exec that the Earth is indeed flat. Ainge decided to share his discovery with the world late on a Monday night.

2. Ainge had just finished watching Irving drop 47 points on the Dallas Mavericks in the Celtics' 16th straight win, and he's so tickled by Irving's performance this year that Ainge basically joked something like this: "Hey, I'll believe whatever you want me to believe, Kyrie, as long as you keep playing like that."

I think it's the latter, but we don't know for sure.
