“When the whole invasion took place…I thought Kyrie was going to skip games because of that…I ain’t lyin.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

Imagine finding away to hate someone when they drop 50

[keanuhughes]

I truly don’t believe someone can be as great as kyrie is, and NOT love the game of basketball..

[jayhunchooo]

he doesn't play, stephen a rambles. kyrie plays, he still rambles. son needa make up his mind😂

[holyrockstar]

This man dropped 50 in the NBA and the verdict is Kyrie doesn’t love basketball 🤦🏾‍♂️

[terrencealexander]

I don’t understand why they don’t have this same energy for the mandates that allows visitors to play but not Kyrie!

[ryanhumor]

Stephen A is an outstanding actor. As much as he LOVES basketball- there’s NO WAY he believes this take. Bruh, is doing a JOB. He deserves an Oscar & Emmy.

“It’s against the Hornets…”
You acting like the Nets aren’t just one game above the Hornets in the standings

[justicebanks]

The fact that an unvaccinated player from another city can play in Brooklyn but Kyrie can’t makes me WANT TO THROW UP 🤢 Ridiculous 🤦🏿‍♂️

[bleepingfresh]

You mean the city of New York is robbing you of seeing Kyrie Irving

[theflightclubworldwide]

It’s this energy and perspective why I haven’t watched a single game this season. They’re literally trying to shame this man into doing something he doesn’t believe in. I can’t believe he had the gall to say “If you’re being paid $40M and you’re told to take a shot, you take the shot”. Do you know what that’s called sir??? Thats called selling your soul. It would be a completely different conversation if this was in a clause on the front end, but it wasn’t. When he signed that massive contract it said absolutely nothing about a pandemic or any vaccine mandates. Let’s be real here, these guys are jokes and paid puppets!

[WrestlingXVIII]

He dropped 50 points but doesn’t love basketball? I don’t get it

[illspeak]

Stephen A makes me support Kyrie even more

[emoneyizhereson]

It also sucks that Kyrie is viewed as someone who thinks he's smarter than everyone else. He seems like a cat that just wants to grow and positively impact the world. Aside from a few comments in the past, he doesn't give off the impression of an arrogant person. Stop shaming this man's character.

[urmommahouse]

Kyrie is my favourite nba players. I miss seeing his amazing skill BUT I also respect his choices. Its his life. If Nets dont have a problem with it, media shouldnt

[donsolo]

Attacking a man's character because he refuses to back on his morals to play basketball, I don't agree nor disagree with Kyrie. He is his own man, if you don't respect someone standing ground for their selves, just wait to see when you get run over for standing yours.

*Edited for spelling.

[WrestlingIsReal]

Am convinced Kyrie can’t do anything right in Stephen a smith mind 😭😭😭

[Maxjuliann]

Kyrie drops 50 points but instead of showing him praise and respect . This man Stephen A chooses to hate on him .

Steph curry drops 20 points but Stephen. A be like “ HES THE BEST SHOOTER THAT EVER WALKED THE FACE OF THE EARTH “

[CutThroatChris]

Stephen a is a clown 🤡
Who tf are you to say kyrie don’t love basketball

[cblackonthebeat]

It's the way you come Stephen A. I can't get behind you. Praying for you brother
