Dave Portnoy taunted Kyrie Irving by wearing a clown t-shirt with a picture of the Mavericks star's face on during Game 2 of the NBA Finals in Boston.
Barstool Sports founder Portnoy has been bullish on the Celtics winning the series but targeted the star man for Dallas with his clothing as he took a courtside seat for Game 2 in Boston.
Portnoy, 47, even appeared on the jumbotron at one point in the game - where he was sat next a blonde companion - and he held his t-shirt up to the cameras.
After the Celtics beat Irving and his Mavericks team 105-98, Portnoy tweeted out a link to the t-shirt he was wearing for fans to buy for $32.
Portnoy also stands to take his gambling winnings up to $7.5million for the year if the Celtics win the NBA Finals and the Edmonton Oilers win the Stanley Cup.

Portnoy has been vocal in his support for the Boston Celtics over Dallas Mavericks
Last week, before the Finals began, Portnoy said that he will win $1.1m alone if the Celtics become NBA champions.
It looks a solid bet for now - Sunday's win means the Celtics lead Irving and the Mavericks 2-0 in the series.
Before the game, Portnoy tweeted a picture of him taking a selfie next to the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy, and captioned it: 'Too soon? #celticsin4'.
