    Holy shit, Kyrie needs to get out of the league. If you can't stand watching the whole thing, at least skip to the last minute.

    No kidding. Two of them are more interested in the girl than the game.

    I'm genuinely asking because I haven't followed. Is your first thought to shout someone down if they don't know something? Are you that eager to call someone hateful?

    I’ve seen you post bullshit on here in the past. I swore you were attempting to defend this asshat.

    I don't think I've ever defended him. I'm not a fan.

    But that's a different issue than calling him antisemitic. That's a serious charge.

    If you are serious, please visit espn or NBA com sites. He has spread anti Semitic tropes more than once.

    Also anti vaxxer and flat earther.

    I'm on an NBA board with some who feel strongly about this so I thought I'd ask here.

    I knew about the other stuff but never heard him being antisemitic.

    He tweeted support for a film based on a book that is antisemitic.

    like take this kyrie bullshit. any other profession, or hell any other player would get kicked out of the league for the kinda shit he gets away with (yet he remains VP of the players union).

    look at what happened to meyers leonard.

    Meyers gets suspended, and likely blackballed from the league. Kyrie gets a generic press release.
    Talent is king.

    So this is from the "NBPA"?
    And Kyrie Irving is the Vice President of that Association?

    For the record, Kyrie himself did not say anything. He posted a link.
    He may be an ass but the lunch mob out for him is no different than saying Udoka should never coach again.

    some of you guys are simply over the top man.
