NBA Nets suspend Kyrie Irving for at least 5 games

[Stylizer1]

The world will never be a utopia. All of this grandstanding is just that. Racism is here to stay no matter what people do. You can just go on living your life and not be worried about it OR be so offended and waste energy trying to "do the right thing" which in the end will amount to nothing because everything is questionable. Tomorrow always brings a new fad people can get angry with or accept as the greatest thing ever.

This is gonna be interesting.

 

[sansabri]

asking that a Black man meet with an org that has literally spied on Black people lol

 

[Neutrinos]

If I'm Irving, I decline

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Love it. Make him come crawling back. Let’s see how bad he wants to play basketball again.

 

[dahrougem2]

The Nets must not want Kyrie back, because if that was me I'd be saying "thanks, I'll pass" to those demands.

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Oh, is that all?

 

[sansabri]

looks like retirement it is

Penalty seems onerous for posting a link on the internet. Streisand effect in play.

NBA/Houston Rockets didn't do this to Daryl Morey after he tweeted about China/Hong Kong, that's for sure.

He supports and is sharing a widely known anti-sematic book/film which is more than just "Posting link' not to mention the Alex Jones stuff and then his actions in press conference and 2nd interview including his statement about Holocaust



Also, the film he is promoting pushed that Holocaust was lie among other nonsense



Irving can go f*** himself

As if Tsai isn't tied in with a government that is committing genocide against a certain religious group. He hardly has a leg to stand on.

My point is, you're attracting more attention to this movie than would have occurred if everyone had just ignored it.

I guess slavery could have been avoided too then

Kyrie should help out Alex Jones cut down his lifetime worth of debt.

 

[jcs0218]

Kyrie Irving has approached, or even exceeded, Antonio Brown territory.

And that is VERY DIFFICULT to do.

 

[John Price]

f*** you Lebron. He should not be able to play. He has shown no remorse for his hateful speech.

 

[KapG]

Lol @ Lebron. What a clown.

"hate is okay if it's one of my boys, but god forbid anyone else does it"

Nah, Bron. That's not how that works. If Kyrie apologized in front of the media instead of going on that unhinged tangent, he would still be playing. He's not sorry. You know it, i know it, the Nets know it.

If the ADL was appalled enough to refuse his donation that's how you know he isn't geniune.

they didn't refuse it. Greenblatt accepted the money without meeting Kyrie and then gave it back when Kyrie came out with his fauxpology

As part of the conditions for his return, Irving will play the remaining games this season wearing a yarmulke

 

[dahrougem2]

Jaylen Brown rightfully calling out Nike for dropping Kyrie as a client yesterday.

 

[JackSlater]

Irving has long been a colossal idiot but I must say I don't see how those can be the standards for his return.
