Kyrie: itt we discuss his latest horrible thing

the nets don't deserve credit for much at this point but that statement is pretty good

totally agree on udoka, he could just take a year off and get a normal job and everyone would be fine with it. but if he tries with these guys and they crash and burn he's done as a head coach.

crazy all this went down in the most jewish place outside israel

i won't listen to him talk but he must have just killed it today

The ADL is no longer accepting the $500,000 from Kyrie Irving, per the organization’s CEO Jonathan Greenblatt.

“After watching the debacle of a press conference, it’s clear that Kyrie feels no accountability for his actions. ADL cannot in good conscience accept his donation.”

man this crazy

damn theyre going to have to find their harass palestine student groups money somewhere else

i think theyre just in ny/philly/dc

nah man we got em in Durham/Raleigh and I have seen em on Beale St in Memphis too

ah crazy good for them lol

Remember Kyrie and Kanye the next time these bought-and-paid-for Negroes in the media act like they loved Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, JFK, MLK, or anyone who actually challenged the establishment. They bow to Amazon, China, Nike, and Godless elites. Idolatry.

in case we weren’t sure where whitlock stands

and to think i had gone for like 6 months without wondering what jason whitlock was doing

kyrie apologized so we’re good now

He said what he shoulda said a few days ago. Honestly kinda surprised he apologized

lmao doing research on YHWH

lmao doing research on YHWH

i wonder who finally convinced him that he was about to toss his career away.

I think his name is 5 game paycheck

Ah! Well. Nevertheless,

lol third time's the charm you asshole

Kevin Durant: “I’m not here to judge somebody or talk down on the life or how they feel their views. I just didn't like anything that went on. I felt like it was all unnecessary. I felt like we could have just kept playing basketball and kept quiet as an organization.” #nets

Just wanna clarify the statements I made at shootaround, I see some people are confused..I don’t condone hate speech or anti-semetism, I’m about spreading love always. Our game Unites people and I wanna make sure that’s at the forefront

— Kevin Durant (@KDTrey5) November 4, 2022

anti-semitism is apparently a very difficult word to spell

Lol these fellas just can’t help themselves. He just wants to shut up and dribble but can’t do it

lmao its true

“ I see some people are confused.”

- The nets

pretty lame stuff from KD. i actually thought kyrie's apology was fairly heartfelt, if still a bit defensive. you could at least tell he wrote it himself w/ the typos and such

kinda interesting that these guys really dont want to play the pr game, almost have to respect it except for the fact that theyre doing terribly and cant admit that fake hitler quotes are bad

the way to not play the pr game is the way marshawn lynch played it which now he's spun into a post playing career / money stream

yeah part of the problem is the kyrie and kd are grumpy and unlikable where marshawn is cool and charming also i dont think he ever got into any hitler shit

yeah sorry not that part of it just more the i dont want to be here answering these dumb questions (about the game i just played or whatever) part. kd chose grumpiness instead of being the fun loving guy he was early on

KD smokes a lot of weed too I can see him just being like "nah I don't wanna talk about this, peace and love xoxo Ringo"

i actually thought kyrie's apology was fairly heartfelt

my take is that he finally 'got' the fact that there was genuine hurt he caused and he's sorry about that. but it also sounds like he'll consider this belated apology is enough to 'make it all better', letting him just slough it off as something over and done. His belief in his own 'research' won't be altered by it and his reckless clueless behavior will continue on its merry way.

really smart time to post something vague like this

Can’t even tell the truth no more

— kuz (@kylekuzma) November 4, 2022

folks I hate to break this to you but kyrie did not write that apology. we’ll see how well he expresses himself when he’s in front of the mic again

ok maybe the typos make it less likely it was some
PR flak, but the near-180 in less than 24 hours doesn’t scream sincerity to me. but I guess I’ve never had that kind of money on the line

its a single tiny step in the right direction but he's kyrie so two steps back will be coming soon enough

“For nearly a week, Tsai kept extending the clock to give Irving a chance to get this right for himself, the franchise and the Jewish community -- and Irving never returned a single of his text messages, sources said.”

Lol why would anyone believes he somehow means it now? He's made it very apparent how he feels

i think he's made it known that he doesn't want to be pushed around by the media or mainstream society or whatever. i'm actually not sure how he really feels about much of anything. it's all this shell game w/ him, the "just asking questions" of it all

it's curious to me that the owner of the team has no ability to speak to one of his star players beyond sending him unanswered texts

what’s curious about it?

idk you’d think they’d be able to get the owner and player in the same room together. they do work at the same office after all

he does have one way suspend him until he talks to him

"From what I've been told, Joe Tsai is completely done with him (Kyrie)."

He should probably think less, we'd all be better off.

lol @ these middle school ass memes

much thinking to do

tfw you wrote a bunch of stuff with your giant pencil head but then a bunch of giant eraserheads erased what you wrote

he's right though, it's fucked up that we have to pay to use our own pens

this guy really just says a whole lotta of nothing while contradicting himself from one sentence to the next

Kyrie Irving explains his 2022 comments about managing Nets w/ Joe Tsai & Sean Marks: “I would just love more of a shared responsibility if we’re going to be building a future here. They gave me all the right answers… I just wanted to bring in some great guys. I know cohesion.” pic.twitter.com/wQR92YjfwS

— Ben Golliver (@BenGolliver) February 18, 2023

lmao @ “they gave me all the right answers , ‘yes, yes, yes’” and the bit about how Dallas values the consistency he brings to teams

lol yup. I wanna know who the "just want to bring in some great guys" guys are. is he talking about players he was recruiting? is he talking about his entourage? family?

that style of speech where one thought is always interrupting another doesnt seem super corolated with great mental health
