As a Brooklyn native, I completely support him and hope that he finds the clarity and happiness he needs to move on with his career. Players aren’t products; they’re human just like us.
Love what you say
@CorePathway sheep lmao chuck and shaq are often wrong
@CorePathway Alright, cool, you can read the title of the video. People who judge celebrities from what the media says about them, as if the media is 100% truth. He just said the media was speculating, but I guess you didn't watch the video? You don't know Kyrie personally, so your opinions of him mean nothing at the end of the day.
Exceptionally impressive interview - He's very bright, enormously talented, and understands life as well as basketball.
Good to see him happy that’s really all that matters
@Wonka you are not happy 😁 😂 and he is apparently Rich and you are not 😂 you 🤡 bot
He will never be happy.
Salute to you Kyrie! Dallas made a power move in acquiring you! Destined for Greatness!
@G0AT yup it’s going to be hilarious when he takes the mavs down
Kyrie is a scrub.
destined to leave dallas
Salute for quitting. This guy is not deserving a max. He's gonna ruin the Mavs just watch
If I was in 2016 I would've never thought Kyrie would play for the Mavs
Yall say this after every player gets traded to any team
@Mj LMAO!!!
I'm a Mavs fan in 2023 and it's still difficult to believe.
What about in 2023?
@Thymicere ffs
My best to you Kyrie! Do what you were born to do.
Good to see Kyrie get a fresh start…I wonder what team he’s playing for next season.
I say the same
Dallas Cuban won’t let him go anywhere
@Thomas Griffiths - The one that lucks out and lands themselves in the Finals or ends up winning the finals.
I wish all the best for Kyrie Irving and his family. Kyrie is a great basketball player, and I hope he has more championship victories in his future.
With the Lakers is the only time I see him winning another championship as if now
@Isaac Youngclarke he did apologize about saying the world was flat but y’all never seem to talk about that
He's antisemitic who thinks the world is flat. But ya he's good at dribbling a basketball so all the best lol.
Like listening to my teenage son! It's never his fault. Everything that happens to him is external! This sounds the exact same press conference when he came to Brooklyn after he left Boston.
@marcus jenkins Small brain/ emojis yadda yadda yadda ....and look, we're both in the same place watching the same content ponder that 🧠 guy 😅😅😅
@Miko Philo You know there are studies on people who are short on thoughts and words and large on emoji’s have small brains. Guess I’m dealing with a G. E. D brother! I rest my case
Happy for Luka really a running mate he deserves
That takes the ball away from his hands and plays 0 defense? LOL. He would want Dorian Finney Smith more.
@Mack Deen that is not the case... His issue is media. First he had to deal with them asking questions about LeBron all day when he was with the Cavs. Like how is he sent into interviews where they can care less about him and only worry about LeBron. Then they kept making up story's about how he feels about LeBron. When in all reality it was the medias lies. He went to Celtics, same thing happened, still asking him about LeBron and the lies about Celtics. New York was the worse. He didn't want to get the vaccine so the media was making up so many lies on how him and his teammates was getting along. Kyrie never gets to talk, they always make up narratives. Just let the kid play ball. That's literally all he wants.
@Arthur K Arthur k is not in the NBA any where or recognized as a reporter in the database. Where does he get these opinions?
I bet this season will be an epic one for the mav's guarantee western conference finals mavs vs sun's 😆
One thing I know for sure, I´m not gonna miss his first game playing for Dallas. He and Luka will be scary for the other teams, unstoppable. I didn´t see this coming.
@Me Yao but KD and Kyrie were unstoppable, too. They have a great record playing together this season. The only one who can stop them is themselves.
Alright calm down dont go down the path of “unstoppable” talk thats what 99% of media and fans saying the same thing when kyrie and KD paired up 4 years ago and look how it turned out
A bunch of points and no defense. Second round playoff exit
Not even does Luka play off ball
You know what was scary for the other teams? This guy and KD. How did that turn out?
I'm sad he left Brooklyn. But I hope things cool off and work well for him in Dallas.
@XaeVius how can a resident be forced outta work when they amendment rights being violated in the states of California and New York at a time when others civilians could into those states and be in public freely, individuals have choice whether or not to get injected wit that poison, move along you kids, Ky and others are on to they next NBA journey destinations
Bro I went to bed and woke up and we'd lost KD too 🤣🤣🤣
@Terence Tillman yea just let everyone who has family or friends that have a birthday be entitled to just leave the workspace 😂. let's see if society don't fall by like half a year
@XaeVius from a spiritual standpoint, we praise the Lord 1st who puts whoever in the position they in, your family, your household is your responsibility above everything else on earth, stop double talking editing your comments repeating what I said as far as you being sucka, chump
Kyrie Irving being in the Western Conference is so interesting it really shakes things up, and a Curry x Kyrie matchup again would be so dope in the Western playoffs 🤩
@Joe Shmoe chill
@Stefan Harristhe same team that suspended him for a tweet instead of tryna hear him out at all???
A kid with a dream 😂😂😂😂😂 A kid ffs pal grow up
I feel like he needed this interview and a lot of people is gonna see this decision differently
He sounds like a child assigning blame..."It's not my fault"
Mavs gonna have trouble now
@demidump nighthawk HE'S paid to play basketball , Sir, not taking these unauthorized sabbaticals anytime he wants ... Good riddance I'm glad he's gone ... ( A message from a Nets Fan !!!!!!!! )
He sounds as narcissistic and out of touch with reality as ever.
@SLT SCHOOL OF TRUTH!!!! 🖕🏿
Welcome to Dallas Kyrie. We are so excited about your arrival. Hope the mavs can keep you here with a big contract this off season.
Btw our team was 0-7 without luka and dead last 30th place in almost all meaningful stats. That’s unacceptable and the Kyrie trade we are now winning without him it’s an instant impact deal
@#1 Nets fan looking good so far. Obviously that’s a concern but the risk was worth it. Otherwise we would lose luka if he didn’t at least try to get him help
Good luck! Hope u didn’t gut ur team for someone who is not going to sign with u this summer
@DonnaJean his business
Good for him , knowing his worth .
He is really saying the right things that you want to hear. Let’s try to go get a championship
Dude promoted some antisemitic nonsense and is upset they didn't "celebrate" him
He did when he got to Brooklyn, too.
Luka and Kyrie finna do damaged, BUT NOT with just Christian wood we need a bigger/stronger/anything slightly better than wood center lol 😂then this will work 👏🏽.
He always does once he is on a new team lmao dude is just childish
He has a staggering lack of self awareness
Kyrie did a great job in this interview saying all the right things Mavs fans wanted to hear. Let's see after few years what excuses, if he's celebrated and appreciated enough, and what he'll be saying the next team he's joining. I just hoped he'll not messed up the Mavericks, (finish a season w/o injury) get a Championship first, before one of his screws in the head gets loose again. Good luck to Mavs.
before one of his screws get loose huh 💀 💀
Didn't care about what fans wanted to hear he told the truth , this interview was deeper than the game. He didn't have this narrative with leaving Cleveland. Brooklyn tried to silence his career and he as one of the best scorers ended up with another one in Luka.
You need all the luck in the world.
He's going to be a FA - The only think that will matter is the most $. He's a nightmare...
@AllThingzNatural God's Order
“I just wanna be at peace every time that I come into work.” I felt that. 💯
@C Scotet you say too much and nothing at all.tell me what exactly has he done wrong? its all made up narrative. no one can even point out to anything. tell me what has come out of his mouth? what has he said that made you so mad? nothing! all nonsense you cant point to anything
@iZsn4Ti he’s more reliable than you on a basketball court
@iZsn4Ti Lol yeah they gave him everything he wanted by trying to bait him into getting the jab by not letting him play road games from the jump just to come back crawling when KD got hurt and Harden wanted out. The Nets aren't blame free here
So good for the team, Dallas was really good with Brunson and now they look like this again but with an even more experienced player in that position. Luka with an additional ball handler at Kyrie’s level is key to them winning a title
Kyrie and Luka is an incredible backcourt, but the Mavs have so many horrible contracts its hard to imagine them winning. They really need guys like Bertans, THJ, and Bullock to produce for this team to win.
You'll be celebrated and respected through your performance and your deeds.
Deeds? who tf are yu buddy 😂
Yeah because his track record says he will do either
preach! 🙌
Only in your world bro
Kyrie is such a dope and bright individual. One of the best to do it on and off the court. Love how he stand his ground and tell his story when the media try to spin so many things to make him look crazy instead of trying to understand him. ✌🏾and❤️ big dawg ... Keep going👌🏾💪🏾
MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO YOU KYRIE! GLAD YOU LEFT BROOKLYN! WISHING YOU MUCH SUCCESS 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Nobody questions the work ethic, everyone questions the commitment.
@A Ro Yeah if you think Kyrie and Ben Simmons are committed then we will have to agree to disagree and you're not worth engaging with.
@King visuals you must have started watching basketball last season. He does this all the time
@Anonymous his reposting is an endorsement of it
@geebster type tribe of Dan above and then tell us how crazy Kyrie is. Kyrie on his own with the flat earth stuff.
Man seems like no one talks about unconditional love anymore besides him and myself i haven’t heard those words together in decades… Besides me mentioning it in the past few days and months. I’ve only heard him mention it now, myself and the movie “Ernest”. Mad love for Kyrie. He got heart and big talent.
I loved it when I saw you and Floyd Mayweather the embracing was a wonderful thing to see and you gave him your jersey. You are a true man and what you stand for. You have a lot to be inspired. Good for you.
Well well, Kyrie speaks his truth. Gotta love a man who knows what he wants. Hope Dallas is ready to celebrate him! Can't wait to see the Mavs ball out with him leading the charge.👀🏀 Let's hope he brings the championship home!💪🏆
@Fernando 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
There will be nothing to celebrate, sorry you are getting your hopes up. Just want to squash it now.
can't wait to flake out again and start all the drama. championship? that's what you guys said in brooklyn 😅😂
🤣
1:17 I hear you Kyrie we are all rooting for you👊
Smart young Man! Speaks well … God Bless Him! 🙏🏼😎👑💯👊🏼
Kyrie and Luka together is mind boggling.
Do the mAvs really risk a defensive lack with this trade ?
Just like when he was with Harden and KD?🤣
@MJH Beats to be generous with the ball, you have to have it in your hands. Let’s see his generosity level when someone else than him need the ball in their hands more often than him.
I'm excited for this and my squad. I'm waiting on my jersey. Looking forward to see how far we go.
As a Celtics fan we loved kyrie up until he betrayed our trust by saying he would stay them dip. We celebrated him every day he was my favorite player easily but not after he left
Good luck Kyrie! Hope that Brooklyn experience made u a better man! Good luck Mavs
Great hooper and great person!
Im really excited to see him play with the Mavs! I hope he stays in Dallas
He will be ready to leave Dallas after the first practice
When luka the primary ball handler Kyrie gonna call racism
@Tone all of it so when see the finals this year MF4L vs gstate
I love watching kyrie play, but dude this goes for anybody in the league, if you want to be celebrated play regularly and don't be toxic, the situation in Brooklyn was no reason to celebrate
Exactly he earned that treatment
BEST INTERVIEW EVER FOR KYRIE
Nonsense. His lack of self awareness is staggering.
I seen this movie before and it didn't end well... ask Cavs, Celtics, and Nets.
@Led Rivera bent over backwards for him. KD rescinded his request. Why did he make it? Because he knew the Nets were not stupid enough to fall for I tried b.s. KD had a personal meeting with Joe Tsai. What happend? KD went back to work. They brought in everyone Kyrie wanted. You ever hear of James Harden? Got rid of coaches and players for him 2 coaches. You're joking right? Kyrie ruined the Nets. He tried to ruin the Celtics but they dumped him asap. Ran out of Cleveland at the first sign of trouble. Watch him ruin the Mavs. Jason Kidd should save his money. Watch Luca want out. You'll see.
Great to have you in Dallas Kyrie! You and bad European will make the world turn around👈
Wishing the young man the best and Go Mavz
How can you not like this man despite what you may agree or disagree with regarding his personal opinions? He carries himself well, no ego and just wants to grow and get better.....not just as a player but most importantly as a man, husband and father. A Flower cannot Flourish in a Concrete Jungle
IN FAIRNESS: I’m a huge fan of Ky on and off the court. But his interviews are similar at every stop. So it’s insincere to ask how others can’t dislike him. He’s a polarizing guy. I enjoy his personal commentary. But his interviews speak of EACH stop being THE stop. He’s too great for all of the modern day player movement. In MY humble opinion. 2nd or 3rd best PG of this era after Curry & maybe Harden in my view. (Harden is a 2G to me though they’re ALL listed as PG/SG these days) Best dribbler and showman since Kobe and Curry.
As a mavs fan im having heart attacks during this press con.
@Youwin Louw my eyes are clear
@Necessary better to take a risk than none. Also need to show Luka you’re all in on putting a team around him. Team was going no where fast. Now you can potentially win a chip if things work out
@Will Did you get your 4th booster yet, Karen?
@Beechivelli Productions LLC I want you to keep that same energy when he leaves Dallas. The countdown is on...
@Tha GO'Rilla Administration I want you to keep that same energy when he leaves Dallas. The countdown is on...
As a Knicks fan, happy to see him get up out of NYC. Good luck Mavs!
@dsales2011 facts
@Keenan Lambert I've never seen anyone ever care about the Nets except when Jason Kidd was there.
@Keenan Lambert Market Value doesn’t mean anything when nobody wants to come and play for the City. The only thing the city got was KD & Kyrie and they went to BK. I do agree with you the Nets will be second just like the Mets but overall the Knicks are trash and have been disappointing for years. I’m going to have to pass on that one on one too many ankle injuries playing ball when I was younger. 😂 The city as a whole is looking like the way it did in the 90’s. Keep getting your education and be safe out there. 🙏
@gEoGaDgEt Clearly you don’t know too much or have forgotten about marketing value…. The Nets moved out of their swamp in the Meadowlands to carry the Brooklyn name for marketing value…. The reality of the situation is…. like the Mets, they will always be a 2nd franchise in the city….. I’m born, raised and educated in the city….. You can pull up anytime by Brooklyn College and we can play 1 on 1. I don’t live uptown…. NYC is a beauty for me…. Folks uptown having it rough at the moment…..
@Eddy Casseus what have the Nets done? They blew up their young core for prima donnas and now have have to rebuild from the ashes….
I don’t want to dream I want to win. I feel that man
Good move 🤴🏿Kyrie do what u wanna do bro 💯✅...I respect ya independent ways 💪🏾✊🏾
I knew Mark Cuban was fishing for Kyrie. I personally think this is a correct fit. Great Interview. Let’s keep it business !
let's go Dallas, I wish you all the success in your new team, you are the best on the court and I really enjoy watching you play 🐴🏀
I was shocked when he did that entire list the nets demanded of him to continue to play, it seemed so excessive. Now we can tell he did it just to play and its one of those situations where he'll do it but he won't ever forget you made him do it.
As an employer who gets to hire people I see this all the time. Young black men don't have the best work ethic. At least one call out a week and always some excuses for it. No wonder those defending kyrie tend to be young black men. Results of single motherhood households. Kyrie's mon is even his agent🤦🏽♂️
@Donyute Jamaica ok where this bridge?
@Donyute Jamaica wut ya talking about.. only player that didn't get it and they allowed him back after taking millions from him
@Worrior Lord yeah he hard work... KD as the defacto number 1 doesn't help either with is unwillingness to be a leader. Once manegnment was hesitant with the extension in knew it was done. Only move nets could make that won't lose him for nothing. Good for both sides... Dallas and kyrie gets to try out each other for the next while. Don't think that will work but not because of off court stuff... Imo both are very ball dominant and kinda play very similar that it might go against each other. We shall see what's next...
@datDANK, 🤭 Really?!? You cannot be serious! Stop it! 😅
I agree with him. Sometimes you have to be the change & make sure personally the goal is about you. When you know you’re the prize it’s a must to move forward.
You said a word
I feel manipulated 😢 Kyrie always know how to win me over and say the right things! Dammit!
Sounds like a lgbtqi problem
Sounds like a you problem
The villain
KYRIE IRVING IS A GREAT PERSON. AND A GREAT BASKETBALL PLAYER, GREAT PICKUP BY THE MAVS
Kyrie wants to be celebrated, respected, admired, and given UNCONDITIONAL support, a phrase he uses a bit, these are classic NPD disorder traits. In other words, it doesn't matter what I do off the court, just celebrate the genius I am, I am here, love me.
SHOUT OUT TO KYRIE❤. Do your thang young man. Continued success to you.
Good for you Kyrie!! I think this new journey will be really good for you & Luka! Be the man you want to be however I know you're a great man already! Live your dream & I know many ppl can't wait to see you take that floor with the Mavs!! 🏀🔥👊
@Quentin Davis he literally just said he wants to be celebrated. & Thinking money makes you secure on the inside is 🧠⚰️
@Hermonymus of Sparta beautiful to see him do his own narrative without giving 2 shits how ppl feel about him, being a millionaire he not worried about ppl opinion of him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Hermonymus of Sparta Terrible…but that is what these kids worship. ANYONE who gives them reason to shun accountability, that is why so many support him.
He's a bad example for young people. No accountability.
"Good Riddance. Sincerely the Cavaliers, Celtics and Nets"
I wanted him with my Wizards or lakers but the Mavs are going to be intriguing!
Best of luck to you brother I support you no matter where you at or team. You got this brodie 💯 you a beast !
You do understand he’ll never see your comment. 😂😂😂😂😂
I like this man...he has the right to stand on his autonomy, know his worth and be celebrated as he should be .. I'm going through the same thing at work and many systems are corrupt trying to dim the light of stars because they are chosen...boundaries is a must because these officials and these offices are full of narcissistic people wanting control over other people's lives and others abundance...but can't control their compulsive obsessions with power....
Kyrie this is a great interview. I see the humility. Thankful that you’re not defined by trades, bad media publicity, Nike canceling your contract, etc. That’s why I love LeBron. Your ending in Cleveland wasn’t the greatest yet Lebron doesn’t hold that against you. He embraces you and we the fans embrace you too, King. Wishing you nothing short of success in Dallas and beyond. You’re going to do great, Kyrie!!
Brooklyn fan here. I wish it could of worked out better with Nets. But I wish Kai well with Mavs, and hope he does well. ( Just not when playing Brooklyn lol )
well said bro💪🏾
MAVS FANS: “GET LUKA HELP” CUBAN: “I TOOK THAT PERSONALLY”
@Tloomfield dum jit ya ain’t see cavs down 3-1 kyrie saved lebron 😂 what is ya sayin mavs western conference finals this year
@Primeson kyrie don't even know you guys and yet you out here defending him like he's your daddy 😅🤣🤡
@ScottiePimpin he's already proven him right his entire career. why do you think he's in dallas rn? 😅🤣
Cuban didn’t even know
@K- No mavs would be nothing without cuban
Nets celebrates you, and at this point, he cares about the contract. As of now, it's just Money, not whether he's celebrated or not
Business move
Kyrie in the off season: “I love Dallas and I love the weather here so I plan on resigning to win a championship” 3 months later: signs with philly to join embid and harden😂😂😂😂😂
I hope him and look become a dynamic duo. Kyrie sounds like he is ready to get back to the love of basketball. Hopefully there won’t be any ego issues and he is right Brooklyn tolerated him.
@Steve Austin Curry better in every way
Curry can shot but Irving has more of an inside out of game to him meaning he can take it straight to the goal or dunk as well shoot from the outside
He’s not better than Curry unfortunately
They said him and KD were the dynamic duo, and every other big named superstar that he couldn’t work with.
Exactly what I'm saying lucka is gonna say this is my team back down
You are going to be great, Kyrie!
Prediction: Kyrie will play great with Luka for a few weeks and his stats will be amazing. This will be followed by an issue or “injury” that will cause him to be off the court.
“A man that stands for nothing will fall for anything”, love kyrie ❤
Well, Kyrie stands for absolutely nothing. Everytime he professed something he folded under pressure and complied. His words are worth nothing.
@ChristopherSmithNYC Dude you need help! YOU ON EVERY POST POSITIVE ABOUT KYRIE TYPING A NEGATIVE COMMENT WITH NO RELEVANCE. Is that you Joe Tsai? Or is that the ADL?
@Theo O 👌👌
@Punworcca 🌽🌽
But he falls for every conspiracy theory online 😅😅
It's gonna be pretty interesting if he and Luka can make their styles work.
Their style is making their own shots. I’m not seeing how this makes Dallas that much better. Bench and defense is their issues. They are fine when Luca is in the court scoring. Ow you have Kyrie to take away the ball? Not sure how both doing the same thing make this team better. We’ll see
So excited to see what team he’ll play for next season
Kyrie is the man. A lot of respect for this guy. He holds himself to a higher standard and doesn’t fall for what everyone is doing.
"higher standard"? "doesnt fall for what everyon is doing"? what a weird way of saying he never thinks he's in the wrong and has no self awareness of what he's doing
He looks happy and at peace and that’s the best part of all this
Wishing him the best in Dallas with Luka but like SAS said, there's always something keeping KAI distracted. It's not one, but Cle, Boston and Bkn all suffered the same scenario.
Seems like all the players he played with only had good things to say about him. Maybe you know things most don't. 🤡
Everyone saying “wow Kyrie is happy.” Take it with a grain of salt. Have you ever been in a toxic relationship? The honeymoon phase is always great. This is the most unpredictable player in NBA history. It’s great to see him happy but let’s wait till the offseason before jumping to conclusions if he is staying. (I am a Kyrie fan, but let’s be realistic)
@Coach Quran because being critical means you're not a fan anymore right? only blind loyalty does
You're not a Kyrie fan ... That's like .. "I like black people... But"
@Justin Barnett hahahaha. the block pot calling the white kettle black
@XaeVius "imagine being this dumb" - you don't have to imagine, look in the mirror
His game will speak for itself like it always have. No more shut up and dribble. We're looking at a MAN with all his humanity in tact. Love to see it!
My favourite player in the NBA KYRIE JUST AMAZING
This is the interview kyrie needed. He’s gonna love Dallas Media. I hope he feels at peace after this and he might not like interviews but he’s gonna realize soon that it’s different here we give good questions and you’re never harassed or setup for controversy Thanks for the likes!!! Looks like kyrie had left an impact on a lot of you.🤡🤡🤣 let the man live I know 100% of you could never live in his shoes. It’s funny how so many ppl would rather hate than hope for greatness from one of the best basketball players on earth.
@Frederik Brandt we don't coddle athletes...porzingis also never lived up to the hype.. period..you sound like the type to lie to your friends and family cause you can't man up and say the truth... your insecure..me..if I'm making 40 million a year.. could ignore some reporters opinion
You must be new to media and controversy
Hahahaha you after all he did to cavs, boston and celtics what makes you think it's not his fault?
Happy for him they showed their hand and he made a good decision
Just because you’re talented, it doesn’t mean you can act however you want in an interconnected and complicated society. He’s incredibly wealthy, he’ll be fine regardless of what happens going forward
I definitely criticized Kyrie a lot in the past. But I was on his side from the very jump when he received criticism from that book he tweeted. I hope he finds peace and Dallas and can win big in Dallas
All the same feelings he had at the start with the other teams he played for.
@EZgamehe was but kyrie was too y’all have short term memory
@TheBoyWhoLived473 Z30 yep everyone blames kyrie for everything he’s done questionable things but you can’t blame him for all the situations
@Max Meier naw if you look at report at that time you know
@Gold I swear y all hate this man... Y all know Lebron wanted to trade this man away, right? And in Boston, even JT and JB said they werent mature enough and everyone wanted to shine individually. Now they got their contracts and allstars spots, everyone says they now they finally want to play together. He hoped to stay in Boston at the begining, then he saw it as better to leave -whats the problem with that? The Jasons are thriving now coz there is no other superstar in their way, you should be happy he left! For the nets, he is the 3rd to ask for a trade AFTER KD and Harden!. Despite what y all feel abt him, this should make u question the Nets management
@Blafard666 he wasn't celebrated in Boston. The fans and media were talking about how much better the team was without him
Well spoken, keep fighting 👏🏾
honestly, fair enough. wishing him the very best, and despite being a Nets fan, I hope he and Luka win a chip.
Kyrie is a great Person on and Off the court. 🔥🔥🔥
Yes he is
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
as a Nets fan I'm definitely going to miss his talent and this isn't anything about his character off the court coz I know he's an incredible person but all I'm going to say is HE IS THE REASON IT WAS SO HARD TO CELEBRATE HIM AND INSTEAD WE JUST TOLERATED HIM I wish him well but I hope he stops calling himself a Nets fan because he's not and he really just ruined what could've been a great championship window
Facts!!!!
@Tyrell Miles yes headache player and injured
As a Nets fan, you should be very happy with the trade. You got quality players and no more headaches. Record should improve. Need one new talent since KD is getting old and injured too much.
Championship or not, at least show up to work and be reliable. When he was out on the court, he was great. But that’s the problem I have with him. For one reason or another, he’s hardly been out there. 74 games in 3.5 years? Plus him constantly putting his foot in his mouth and being at the center of some drama/controversy. Also zero accountability. Every time something happens, it’s always someone else that’s in the wrong
the brooklyn nets suspended this man for sharing a link. amazon who owns the movie, shaq who premieres the movie in his movie theatres wasnt even critized. this man only shared the link to spread awareness. That was so disrespectful. even brooklyn fans bashed this man. so
Congrats, Kyrie. It’s nothing like doing what you love, comfortably. To stand for nothing is to fall for anything. We can’t let our fear speak louder than our courage. 💯
Let this be a lesson to everyone!!!!! “He’s my brother but it is a business at the end of the day I have to think about me and my family”the man that brought him to the nets .
@g33k707 every team he has been in has been a disaster from Cleveland to Boston to nets … I told everyone that kyrie was going to ruin this nets team before he got there and damm I was right ! At what point do u stop blaming everyone else and take a look at urself (kyrie)
@tj dania how exaclty did the nets disrespect him??? Please help us understand this
@C Leigh They paid him millions of dollars to play baskets ball which he barely did.
@Pampos Andreou 2 months?? But yet always an all star 🥱🤧
@Ad Tastic Awful right? This man just wants to settle down somewhere and win multiple titles but everything else gets in the way. Poor fella.
Mavs just became the #1 contender in the west. Everyone thinking Kyrie isn't staying here is way wrong. He said it just in this video.. He has matured, he is ready to be at peace and feel respected and love from his team and fans. Dallas is going to cherish this moment. Kyrie and Luka.. Oh my goodness thats CRAZY!!
Why on earth would you take this man at his word?
He also said he wanted to re-sign in Boston and that he wasn't gonna leave KD in Brooklyn. And he also lied to a kid in Cleveland saying he wasn't going anywhere lol
If he’s smart he’ll stay …
I am now a huge fan of him more than ever. No matter what team he's on that's gonna be one of my fave because him. No matter where KD goes that's my team too. Love these guys.
Really hope people can understand why kyrie left the organization and even though the nets were disappointing he gave it his best and still remembers basketball/money/rings is only a part of his life and he has other priorities
''They wanted me, I wanted to be here, and that's just kinda what we stand at this present moment, and just take it one day at a time.'' Bro is leaving this summer fo sho
Him and Luka are going to be a crazy backcourt cuz you can’t stop either of them really
Kyrie will stop them🤣
They say you can’t stop KD either. And it would seem that would be a better match, given the dynamic of those positions. We’ve seen how two scorers in SAME backcourt not always work out the way it should. Remember when cp3 and harden were in their prime and they were going g to be UN stoppable!!!! I want see how this works in the long term, Dallas needs better bench and another scorer that helps open Luca’s space. But another guard making points is not the dynamic they need
Kyrie will be celebrated here. It’s a football town, but with great appreciation for basketball. Kyrie won’t have to wait long for massive celebrations of his talent. Many of us went to UT and celebrate KD. I believe Kyrie will have success right away.
@Vern Vartdal he had no reason not to go to work in brooklyn either. Its where he grew up but he did so anyway.
@Keith Shaun not sure about that, but I was glued to my TV during that finals. We could witness it in a few months. Would not be all bad, and if Kyrie can do it with Luka, there would be another follow unlike Siakam and VanVleet.
@Arkham Knight he will get bumps and bruises, but he will love the domination that comes from these Mavs.
@nstwtf he’s going to have so much fun stacking wins with Luka. They could become the winningest duo in history percentage wise.
I preordered my foco kyrie mavs bobblehead. That way I will always remember and cherish those 3 months of magic
Watching the game tonight 😮💨 Mavs team getting lit. Hopefully they win.
So much respect for how he speaks as a man.
Both what you do on the floor and off are important. NBA is a brand. I do respect the fact that if you feel disrespected and you cannot see the other side on level ground it is time to move.
Happy we have him in mavz at present.. letz go kyrie we have time to be on top in West
Hahaha😂 good luck
I'm happy for him
All the tasks they wanted him to do just to get off of suspension is the big reason, should’ve seen this coming
@Tott Mitchell yup I agree with. Definitely double standard.
@jd123 what did he say that was antisemitic
@Q P he offered the 500k, and the man is an idiot and clearly said some antisemitic stuff responding to reporters, but hey, I guess it’s easy for me to say I’d apologize if I did something dumb.
Dang, Brooklyn was actually really patient with this guy. I don't think he is able to see that.
Next November Kyrie is going to Tweet about Texas and their Independence from the rest of the States and he is going to be serious about it, we gonna be ready to see Mark Cuban reaction 🤯🤯🤯😂.
Braahhh can you imagine if he comes out with a bs like that? 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😂😂😂😂
Left em in 4th place is an understatement you were the Jordan of that team Durant the pippen Kyrie has proven he's a scorer a leader a valuable piece to any team and not just a supportive role to lebron or anyone else he is a key player that puts major points on the board I sat up in Detroit and watched him and Durant both combine for over 50 points each
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If Kyrie didn't miss all those games BEFORE the Pandemic everyone would have ignored everyone else because Brooklyn would have looked competitive.
