Is Kyrie Irving worth the trouble for the Nets to keep him? [View all]

It's always something with this selfish, disruptive individual. Last year when the vaxx refusal torpedoed the teams season, not to mention the ten day layoff he needed for "family reasons."

Now he's posting antisemitic crap online and now is pleading ignorance that it was antisemitic.

Even for a flat Earther, covid vaxx refuser, this is a bridge too far...I mean isn't he always supposed to be the smartest guy in the room?

If I was the Nets owner I'd be looking to separate this trouble maker from the team ASAP.
