Stephen a low key the reason players started podcasting
Skip Bayless a high key reason 😅
J Williams took up for kyrie 👏🏽
He sure did.
Steven is a elite shill. Screw him. I stood with kyrie
same, I knew Kyrie wasnt gonna leave the league any time soon
Yes sir! F espn!
It's even worse since there are complete idiots who support him.
I totally stood with Kyrie and still do.
He’s selfish for standing up for what he believes in? Crazy talk. I’ve always stood behind Kyrie. I’m non vaxed.
Me too!There is no person in the world, who would force me to get vaccinated vith this stupid vaccine!
Never been vax never got Covid
The mandates in NY for the games got so silly than people who didn’t take the injection were allowed to play away games in NY but Kyrie legally couldn’t
However, he could attend games like what was the meaning of it lol
@@RANDOMZBOSSMAN1 what was the meaning? more or less to force people like you and me to get vaxed. if they didnt allow a superstar like kyrie to work if he didnt got vaxed then people like you and me would feel afraid of losin their jobs. i mean here in greece who i live they even suspended people who were working at hospitals if they didnt get vaxed . LOL
@@RANDOMZBOSSMAN1 it was a plandemical orchestra to sell the product before anything else, just that
I make it a point to completely avoid Stephen A Smith whose irrelevant now compared to better authentic, rational, logical channels like this and many others.
Agreed. He is the WWE of sports broadcasting
Legacy media is dying why do you think all their commercials are for pharmaceuticals 😂
That part. SAS is a joke.
Who’s* 😉
ESPN is not a sports network. It’s a political network that has a few racially focused shows that speak about sports.
Yeah I don't watch it no more, I cut the cable off the only reason I was keeping it on.
Much like MTV isn't music anymore....
RSPN🤣🤣🤣
@@aarons2148 at least in my country never it was about music xd
@@kenoobe23 I'm sure
SAS should never be forgiven for trying to ruin this man's reputation. I was ecstatic that he came to Dallas my home town.
Same here, and Kyrie seems to like it here
Its crazy how everyone has forgotten. Not me.
Karma is real nick fridell got fired on a commercial break
Hahah whattt??? What happened? I remember he was the #1 hit man talking all this smack about Kyrie. Who is total opposite
@@minuit9189 he served his purpose i guess all i know is he was on TV talking about the nets minutes before they fired everyone
A few of them were literally just on TV including that bozo
@@fybnikkahz1133 lol that’s what he gets, I bet he’s real pissed Kyrie been going off as a Mav lmao
So glad we have him on our team where he’s being understood, accepted and he’s thriving.
kyrie in Ramadan is just on an other level ⚡
I didn't know Kyrie was Muslim that's nice
@@mangomaharaja6859 I think he’s Islam
Stephan a smith calling someone snobbish is rich
Kyrie should ignore all the ESPN people in the press conferences during this playoff. Would be hilarious if he said “next question” to everything they ask. Marshawn Lynch style.
Find out who your not allowed to critize in a country and you will find out who controls it.

This guy is my new favorite basketball player!
He’s plays next to my favorite. My gf loves Kyrie. He truly is hero material.
Since the beginning i know kyrie is the greatest of them all
I’m totally with Kyrie on standing up for his right to refuse the jab. The Amazon thing was so ridiculous… why weren’t people mad at Jeff Bezos? 😂
I never liked Kyrie. But after he stood for truth(or at least his beliefs) and risked more than most of us could ever imagine, I respect the man and I wish him well. He has been refined by fire and almost all of it was undeserved. He continues to outside his self-righteous, opportunistic detractors. God bless him.
You never liked Kyrie for what Exaclty? Because I’m sure you don’t know him personally
What didn’t you like about him?
@@calvinavila7989 it was mostly his immaturity and lack of leadership in Boston. Also felt like he was more about showtime than production. I don’t typically like shoot-first PG’s, and that’s how I saw him. And my favorite PGs play defense. But I’ve since seen that I misunderstood him. I was wrong about his game and his character… And he’s definitely grown up since Boston. I think LeBron was a bad influence on him (for leadership style) and after Boston, he became his own man.
But what do I know? I’m not in the locker room.
@@Maxjuliann responded to someone else who asked me the same question, so I won’t repeat myself. But Kyrie is a public figure and we all have our opinions on public figures. Of course we don’t know them. But what I didn’t like about Kyrie was 99% about his game. And the teams he played for. It wasn’t personal. But since his brave standagainst authoritarianism, from what I know about him - (which is just as much as you know about him) I like.
And I also understand his game more, and like it as well
You can chill bro. It’s an opinion. And opinions change. And opinions ain’t worth much anyway.
Really you don’t like his game??? Smh his game is is beautiful ..you don’t make sense bro
ESPN has been trash for the past 10 years
Stephan A big reason
Jay Williams is real af for that. Going against the narrative
I am a Mavs fan, and I always thought Kyrie was getting unfairly attacked and thought it seemed political. The media wanted everyone to know that if they said apologize, you better apologize, or they would destroy you. I love that Kyrie came to Dallas!
Kyrie's stance on the jab and a book made me respect him as a man.
I applaud Kyrie for standing up for what he believes. I didn't believe in it either and after seeing what damage it has done to some people, I know personally, he was right. I don't agree with being forced into anything. Go Kyrie.
I started to like Kyrie when he was disrespected by media when he was Celtics member. Too bad I didn't follow his lead with vacines.
Shout out jay williams .
Why can’t we just disagree with one another? Why must we try to destroy (nay, KILL) those with whom we disagree? I’m a new Kyrie fan!
Good question.
You should ask who is running ESPN and giving these talking heads their scripts?
Isn’t it funny how every corporate media has the same basic scripts they run on the population?
Wonder who owns these corporate media companies…
Curious why weren’t you a kyrie fan before?
Kyrie Irving is not a hater.
I'm not sure what anti-semetism even means anymore.
That’s exactly their goal. It’s been diluted so much that it’s now become a get out of jail free card for literally anything that goes against the Jewish/Israeli agenda.
people try to use it to shut others down when just stating facts; literally saying that israel is committing genocide onto palestinians is somehow antisemtic, when it really aint; kyrie stands for truth;
@@savaiigreat4766 If any group demands exemption from criticism...they are on a path to commiting tyranny. Even if such groups were the recipients of tyranny in the past.
@TJ-kx6ix Yup. That's the problem. Everything is anti-semetic now even without context or permission to criticize. No different than saying one specific race is "incapable" of being racist...the very statement itself being...think it through ;)
Nobody knows.
Stephen A: *attacks players character and reputation *
Also Stephen A: it’s not personal
Sorry my brother, that’s a L you must holf
Yeah his brother Steven A along with their little big brother Big Perk called for him to retire. Never give them an interview Kyrie.
Now they own him a apology
Yes they owe him big time
They tried but failed. Kyrie a good dude and teammate
They could NEVER get me to hate Kyrie
He was 100% right
I hope Jay Will got an apology from SAS the ass for calling it what it was. He knew it was personal and got on national television with that foolery.
I think he has found a player. He can actually play with. Who doesn’t have a giant Ego and is self deprecating and you can see that there is true chemistry, and a true friendship growing between two superstars and this is rare in the league because egos always get in the way. There’s a potential for something very special to happen in Dallas two players who can take over the game individually coming together to dominate on the court..
I freaking love Kyrie calling out the cabal
Its not just ESPN, the owner was also involved. To frankly put, the owner and ESPN were colluding on this.
One of the many reasons why I don't listen to the media and don't watch ESPN
Stop watching ESPN. The only reason he got backlash was he dared to speak out against the “chosen ones”
labeling someone antisemetic is basically the same as labeling someone racist ....those terms are used as weapons.
Replace the word espn with “Zionist” and you have yourself a better explanation.
You can’t cancel greatness
Im glad hes done with joe tsai's nets and with nike. His anta shoes are complete fire and hes with a front office that resoects him and wants to build the best team possible with him.
I actually didn't know this happened
It is totally wrong to silence ppl
Kyrie has changed a lot, he plays the game and goes home
ESPN is a Disney entity and SAS’s job was on the line.
I will never ever ever forget what Stephen A Smith and ESPN did to Kyrie when he refused to get the vaccine, it was insane. It got too personal and thats when I started looking for CZcamsers who make basketball content
Good for them, now he is making them eat their words at Dallas
Espn not even about sports anymore smh
I wanna see him and Luka win the chip their team is so exciting to watch best show in basketball right now not even close
Espn is big 💩💩💩
Kyrie is back to Cleveland Kyrie and he’s only going to elevate in the playoffs! At 32, I think he can play at a high level for 2 more seasons! I hope we get a championship during that time!
Kyrie will play at a high high level for the rest of his career not just 2 years
Kyrie is so skilled even when he loses more of his athleticism he will still be deadly off ball
He’s so supremely skilled
nonvaxed
Antisemitism being used for the millionth time to shut up someone with different views. It’s old and boring!
SAS never took any accountability for his words, Jay had to stand up to him and he acts like somebody is so wrong for ever standing up to him and checking him after he assassinates a guys character daily with personal attacks
The media sucks that’s why they act like they like Kyrie & they call everyone that disagrees with them stupid
They started attacking him after he left LeDiddy. smh.
Kyrie was right not to get jabbed. Luckily he's in Texas now, where we respect personal liberty.
Yeah NY is a joke
LETS GO 🔥🔥🔥
It's absolutely hilarious how the NBA encourages players to speak up on issues however if they don't speak up on the right issues all of a sudden it's a problem. Either tell everyone to shut up and dribble or let them speak freely. Players should be allowed to speak their mind no matter what their beliefs are 🤷♂️
They are still trying to cancel him
Anything Kyrie does they don’t like is magnified
Very well put. Kyrie wasn't given the respect he or any person deserves, he was actually harassed by news media, which then are commonly unpunished for this seemingly illegal activity. Kyrie could have sued. Aside for that, I will take on Kyrie's redemption stage he's on right now, I say Ky is like Messi, fast thinking moving in between traffic and Luka is like Zinedine Zidane, commanding the field, passing elegance master mind scoring and creativity.
Just do the opposite of what media tries to manipulate you to do
Saying your staying and saying your planning on staying are two very different things
The man didn't want the jab now. Look back on it. He was smart, and I left a job because I was not taking the jab period.
Nick Friedell was fired by ESPN in 2023🤣
Yo nick fridell come work for me 😂😂😂
Every opinion is worth! Why can even a great basketball player can not say what is his opinion about everything that he belives it is right. Stay on his opinion what he is beliving and not harming others it is true freedom. I respect Kyrie !
I will NEVER FORGET what the media and the NBA did to Kyrie just because he refused to take that experimental garbage MRNA jab. I will NEVER forget what some people did to shame and even cancel their own family members just for not taking that poison. NEVER FORGET.
NEVER EVER FORGET!!!
This why I love being a Dallas mavericks fan. No politics, we love you if you can hoop, and we love you if you love us. SIMPLE!
He spoke about the overlords. Not allowed to do that.
The Kyrie situation in retrospect reminds me of Jordan Peterson‘s stand against free speech laws up in Canada, which jp became famous over
Stephen A smith is jealous of kyrie Irvin
Effe Nike and espn
Kyrie is awesome so happy he stood up for him self and for the people
now they tryna bury anybody associated with him, luka would easily be mvp if it was brunson instead of kyrie (we can assume they would have about the same stats)
Why wouldn't he leave Celtics? They were chanting that they don't need Kyrie
Woke journalism and virtue signaling journalism should be banned. It has NOTHING to do with basketball. Period. Get off his nuts.
I will give Stephen A. some credit. He at least sat down with Clay Travis and that was a no no in all the sports and liberal media's eyes. He had a lot of pressure to not do it but at least he stood up against the bullies and shared an exchange of ideas, more that this nation needs
They wanted him to do something they had all done but knew he was right not to do , so they attacked him on some stupid stuff so they can feel better about themselves❤.
This is when Kyrie became my favorite player.
Man, ur speaking🎯💎
He refused to answer the question “are you anti semetic”
Can't ever criticize men in small hats, even if those critiques are valid.
needs sm more attention
Jay williams is a good man
The criticism didn’t start with Boston. It started with his leaving the leagues “chosen one” without saying he wanted out because he learned Lebron was trying to get him out of Cleveland for Chris Paul. It continued when he encouraged the NBA players association to vote against the bubble and his support financially of the WNBA financially ($1.5 million) when they refused to play in support of social Justice protest.
Espn SUCKS. 🤘🏻
Listening to Kyrie Irving’s postgame interviews has been a huge highlight for me this year. He’s an extremely positive person it’s only the narratives that make him seem any other way.
So much for freedom of speech!
Kyrie Irving is a legitimate role model
You mean ESPN tried to bury him after a certain group of people were offended by what Kyrie was saying ? Same group of people that went after other people like Kanye ? Shocking ...
Joe tsai and espn really tried to end his career smh
I agree, Irving is too smart. Unfortunately the big apple is not as open intellectually as it prides itself on.
Great video! Kyrie took stands for what he believes. He took the consequences including the hate like an honorable human being and seems better and stronger for it. Go Mavs!
Kyrie has been a pioneer on and off the court. He will be remembered as someone like Muhammad Ali, and people ridiculed me for saying that, but the more time passes the more it gets obvious that this guy is into the truth and didn't shy away from sharing it and handling it like a boss
Thank god, kai has such a strong will-minded. If I were attacked like that, I don't know anymore. It's good now because Mark Cuban is on his side and Dallas and media slowly appreciate Kai and his work ethic..❤
He’s balling tf out
1:30 😂😂😂😂😂making up excuses for
ESPN has turned into a joke. I watch it for the sports but not for the commentary. They have gone full WOKE and won't stand up for women's sports
How that work out for y’all?
anti-Semitism is nthg but just talking about their whether gud or bad
We all will be labelled as one
Media is making this community untouchables
Just legally wrecking PPL for their thoughts on their community
