"I see you @kyrieirving," Brady captioned both videos.
"Good game, that's awesome," he said in the video in reaction to the win. "Go Celts, baby. Let's f****** go!"
Irving scored 37 points in the game and the Celtics took a 2-0 lead in the series.
And it looks like Brady has a new haircut.
-- Brady also tweeted this week in reaction to Rob Gronkowski denting the Lombardi Trophy after the Patriots posted a video of multiple Patriots players explaining how the former tight end marred the trophy when he used it as a baseball bat.
Brady replied to a tweet of the story with a GIF.
