Kyrie Irving is in a really important time for his career. No team wanted to take Uncle Drew off the Nets’ hands so he will play out one year to prove he deserves a long term contract. Kyrie is viewed as toxic but claims he’s just misunderstood. This is a look at why he might actually be correct.

Losing a mom at 4 years is still hard going forth, his relationships with ppl effected by it, and got worse after his grandfather passing. This a guy that delved hard into basketball, then one day started realizing he's not all about basketball, basketball was and more likely still is becoming a crutch for him...complexed dude
I totally agree losing your mother at any age is tough but at 4 wow.
Losing your mother at the age of four can be very traumatic for a kid but he's just an a*****period! Kyrie is selfish and self-centered and egotistic and a narcissist which has nothing to do with his mother dying but everything to do with his ego and self-centeredness!
@sultan whomever I disagree 100% because that right there is the most horrible thing you can go through he just happen to be a nba start desling with fam but doesn't have his mom there to talk to like Kanye
Complex...he is a man child with hundreds of millions of dollars.
@@powerboon2k and you’re a man child without a million dollars. Grow up and stop being a hater it’s the reason why you’re not winning spiritually
I can understand Kyrie was depressed when his grandfather passed away. I lost my mother to cervical cancer back in August 2015. She was a single mother to 3 sons, I'm the eldest, suddenly I realised I lost my rock, my sun and my only parent. Our dad left us for some bitch when we were younger and never bothered about us.
After she passed, I received 2 days of grievance leave. 2 freaking days. I had to spend 1 day to conduct a passing ceremony for her, and cry my eyeballs out in the second day. On the 3rd day, I received a call from Human Resources, asking me if I am coming to work that day as it was already 9.30am. They didn't even ask how I was or if I needed more time off. I got ready and went to work. Everyday I dragged my feet to work. I used to love my job, but after my mum's passing, I became bitter, spiteful, and I hated myself.
It got to a point, I slit my wrist trying to kill myself, my girlfriend came over to pass me a homecooked lasagna found me lying in the bathroom. I just started working for 2 years, my salary was alright. But I had to save money and pay for my youngest brother's college.
I wish, I wish, I can take weeks away from my work and responsibilities and just mourn, recover myself. I stayed with the company for another year, once I got my big fat bonus, I resigned. Went on a holiday alone, I was an athlete so I had never smoked much weed. Then I started smoking weed and that helped me a lot. And the biggest one was me reading back the Quran and started praying. During my prayers, I immersed myself and seek clarity.
Suicide thoughts are real. Its not something, you should tell people "Be strong" or "Snap out of it". Its not that easy. I needed time for myself, I needed to cry, fall down, be miserable. When it was all out of my system, I gathered myself and I became laser focused with my work, with my girlfriend whom now is my wife, siblings and friends.
Sometimes companies, organisations, need to really understand their employees are humans too.
Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry for your lost. Glad to hear you are ok
All it takes is for one person to believe in you. Stay strong!
Dann, that's messed up. I'm sorry for your loss. I don't wanna imagine ever losing a loved one.
Glad you're still here to share your testimony. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I understand the pain of losing your rock. Mine was my great-grandmother. Even though it's been almost 13 years now, some days it feels like yesterday. Some days the hurt is more prevalent than others. We grow through the pain and learn to live without them, while remembering the love & lessons they left us with. As previously mentioned, money doesn't make you less human. We have things that we go through. Live. Learn. Grow.
Sorry man, but remember Jesus is your Rock, if you truly believe in Him, even if things may seem bad, in the end, everything is gonna be good
7:40 Even Michael Jordan left the game after 93 when his father passed away, but this is so different. He was still on top of his game, the Bulls were as well, but he didn't enjoy the game any more and he felt he had nothing left to conquer or challenge.
If you want to quit nba for a season or 2 the players should forfeit their current contract. It is much understandable that way
Thanks Casey. Mental health is real. With all that being said - I'd pay to see Ben Simmons, KD, Kyrie, Joe Harris, Seth Curry, Royce O'Neil, T.J. Warren. I'd like to see some defensive players and a very experienced coach.
🎯💯🏆 You hit the nail. Joe Tsai and Sean Marks should simply meet Kevin Durant halfway and let Steve Nash go.
Steve's rotations have been bad and his in-game adjustments are horrible. More importantly, Nash was only chosen because he is a long-time buddy and former Phoenix Suns teammate of Marks.
Both KD and Kyrie Irving had recommended coaches with more experience (Tyronn Lue and Phil Handy), but Sean had his heart set Steve. It's time to let go and extend the olive branch. 💁🏻♂️🌿 🕊️
Mental health is first everything starts in the mind
agreed
@5:19 there’s still pain there in his voice. As someone who lost my mom during Covid-19, I struggled so bad last year and I’m still struggling mentally with it. And I’ve made some unwise decisions but I didn’t have white hot media lights amplifying every thing I did and making story lines out of it. Sending peace to Ky and all those who have lost a loved one.
I am sorry for your loss, and I hope that you can continue to progress with this grief in a healthy manner.
Im really sorry for ur loss Man Hope ur ok bro
I understand ky always been a fan of him but recently I have been questioning his decisions.
Man I lost my grandfather and I'm still fucked up covid just Really took my best friend
@@tellitlikeitisfresh6541 I'm so sorry for your loss. Hopefully you have space to grieve and honor his memory. It's hard af
You gave me more understanding of what Kyrie has gone through, but I stilldon't have a bunch of sympathy for him. Many people go through those challenges everyday without earning millions. Kyrie has earned enough where he should be able to hang the kicks up and live on the beach for the rest of his life where MANY other people have no choice other than to continue pushing on through life.
@@rickybobby6845 Apparently, you do.
@@rickybobby6845 ... apparently you do ... you took the time to respond. Thanks for stopping by to spread your salt.
Just because a guy has millions doesn’t mean he’s able to go off to a beach and forget about the haters and problems the rest of deal with, maybe you could, but that doesn’t mean everybody can.
@@LW-zi4rp it doesn't. But you still have responsibilities regarding your teammates. If you want to spent time with your family, that's ok, but then be honest about it.
@@atticus._ ... I never said being on the beach would enable to forget about the haters and his problems. I simply implied that Kyrie has WAY more resources to address his challenges than the average person that has to just figure out how to muddle on.
I kinda get what he’s saying but the way wrote as a tweet makes it sounds weird. I’m for the players to clarify things that media seems to push narratives about them that aren’t always true. Just Kyrie being Kyrie.
@Raytheslay how is he a bust besides injuries, taking a mental breath, and not taking a vaccine?
@Raytheslay you spelled 'NBA Champion' wrong. 💁🏻♂️🏀🏆
My theory is that everyone loves a good villain but Kyrie really is just not that dude. He may say and do some dumb shit but he’s not a bad person at the end of it all. So please, I encourage you…… save your hate for KD lmao
:P haha
He's not "misunderstood". He's the Dunning-Kruger effect personified. He's actually really stupid and gullible, and along with it REALLY ARROGANT AND PRETENTIOUS.
You got me at the last sentence lmao.
so it’s “dumb shit” bc you don’t understand it? wow kyrie is right y’all gotta get off social media
@@joshlaguardia6568 sorry what I meant was that he says REALLY dumb shit, frequently
Thanks for the awesome video casey!
Casey, you're killing the game with these deep dives on players. Keep up the good work!👍🏾
in Kyrie's defense, he has always burnt sage as a ritual sometimes not only when he was in Brooklyn. But other than that, he is a bit off. Just wondering that professional players have all the money and resources to find help in mental health. He could have dealt with it through other medium. But it's a lot of pressure. Hope he becomes better in the future.
And also, Kobe did not grow away from the game. He still produced the great documentary which won Oscar and was a great mentor to his daughters' basketball teams and other NBA players.
He did say “IF you’ll have me” he was ready to resign but sadly boston thought otherwise
Lol wut
@@Romanus- kyrie said
“ If you will have me “ he said he would stay if everyone wanted him to stay
That was from the nets already
love it man!
Mental health is so overlooked in the NBA. A lack of support can ruin careers just like injury.
bro just causally put the gordon hayward injury in the video lmaoo
Kyrie blames the media for not knowing thing but when they ask him he calls them pawns
He's not "misunderstood". He's the Dunning-Kruger effect personified. He's actually really stupid and gullible, and along with it REALLY ARROGANT AND PRETENTIOUS.
Well the media as a whole are awful. Journalists are some of the worst people on the planet. They’ll lie, make up stories , whatever it takes to craft a narrative
I’m pretty sure that at a certain point in his life, Kyrie did lot of psychedelics. The things he speak are exactly what people on DMT, LSD and Magic Mushrooms talk all the time.
Honestly, he isn’t much different than most everyday people.
I had the same experience when I lost my grand father. It wasn’t basketball for me but it did happen to me at the age of 24 in the midst of me getting promoted to marketing director. Long story short I slowly lost my passion for it and I’m now a plumber
Find what makes you happy my friend. I always wanted to be a mechanic, but life throws you for a loop and you find yourself in something you don't quite understand, in something more suited for you and your gifts. I lost my passion for fixing vehicles and found my self loving botany, and in turn found myself raising my sister's baby daughter, Strange how things turn out. You'll find a way mate, be proud in the warrior that you are. 🙂👌
You know what they say money doesnt change you but instead just shows who you really are 💯💯💯
True
The depression during an injury thing that limits your ability is a real thing, especially if you love sports. Im speaking from experience.
Good vid!
Wow, great vid, Casey! Would you be willing to do one exploring how Ricky Rubio dealt with his mother’s passing?
He’s recognized the toxicity of our capitalist society but he benefits/succeeds from it so much that he finds himself stuck a lot of times. I mean you make $30+ million for a reason but he kinda hates those reasons if they’re not strictly about basketball. He doesn’t prioritize the game as much anymore and that’s fine who are we to judge. That’s bad for a team’s bottom line but I like seeing the brother thrive and find himself more than seeing him play
I'm a new member my name is Nick Stojkovic love your video's keep it up man
Top notch, Casey.
kyrie is showing a lot of signs of BPD.
a person with bpd can still be a great friend, a great ball player, or a great asset, but you never ever want to structure something around them. bpd causes erratic behaviour, and abrupt changes in personality and motivation.
I think Kyrie is political when it comes to his character/culture and the same way most people get cancelled, Kyrie is cancelled...
And I do think he made that stuff up, flat earth, to show how media focuses on non-important issues...
Kyrie is just different, which means he will be misunderstood. I don't really have a problem with anything he does, he just needs to accept the consequences. If you pride yourself on being different, then you have to be prepared to be misunderstood, you can't have it both ways. Kyrie is struggling a little bit with his ego, but nobody is perfect. I think he is a good person who just wants more in life.
Finally! Facts just been spoken here. People will tend to criticize things they don't understand and what most people right now doesn't understand about him is that he's different. A total different human being with a lot of things that's going through his mind. Things that normal people never encounter or never experience on their lifetime.
They totally could understand, they just twist the shit out your words and don't even care about you
Very good video!
Good video I never hate on K11 or Wiggs people always be hating for putting expectation on others and judging others
While I am sensitive with mental health since I deal with depression and anxiety on a daily basis. The thing is that you have to take accountability for your actions when erratic behavior affects overall your choices in life. You have to actually seek advice and help to deal with grief and loss. I don’t think Kyrie has dealt with that yet. And, with his conspiracy theories and actions, it affects everyone surrounding him. While he is talented, no one doubts that, he needs people to actually sit him down and actually get in his ear and tell him to slow down. To actually get the proper help he actually needs to move forward. He has already alienated most of the league by his actions and his points of view. But, the thing is, I think he knows that. I do think he is smarter than you think and how he is wagering things like his contract and his status with the Nets. So, I wouldn’t be too sorry for him.
"take everybody who thinks the earth is flat, and launch them into space"
that one killed me 🤣
I’m a Celtics fan, and let me just say, Kyrie should never get another long term contract again. He is so unreliable, and always quits on his team.
It really is too bad. He’s such a talented player, but he will only be remembered as a guy who bailed on all of his teams.
Yes he's a nut job.
😆 maybe he seen how yall treated Isiah. Why would anyone be loyal to a disloyal franchise
He trolled yall
coming from the same franchise that is willing to tradr their best player during the 2022 finals to get durant lol talking about loyalty foh
Kyrie needs a serious reality check.
Well no shit sherlock
Nah I’m just messing with around
@@saiyaninstinct4795 does around like you doing that?
kyrie is the male version of the woman that think astrology makes everybodys whole personality
@@izelawrence2829 💀💀
Quite an enlightening video
Hi Casey do you have the original link of the interview u used in this video i want to check it out thanks
Depression - the sweetest thing used to sugarcoat your shit and feed to everybody.
The missing piece is that he should have walked away from the game. Instead, he's trying to make money when the truth is out. I respect mental health and I'm glad more and more people are realizing that its real. At the same time, you shouldn't try to con organizations like the Nets into giving you long term contracts while you let basketball take a back seat.
It has always been the circus around the gladiators that generated the money. Subtract crazy media attention to the players and none of them is a multimillionaire. They are gonna be "firemen and plumbers" in their day job. Kyrie is complaining about a reality he creates and supports himself to be super rich. He might be thinking, I am donating plenty of money. So? You still keep the circus going and changing nothing for anybody. If he hates it so much and thinks it's inherently evil, he cant be taking their money to live his luxury life.
Great video Casey, I watch them all as soon as I see them uploaded. Anyone who hasn’t seen the shabazz video should check it out fr.
Damn Casey why the hell you show that Gordan Hayward clip? 😬
He's Not Weird He's Human...
Orrrr… he’s a narcissist, watched a bunch of docs and got into conspiracy theories like many people did
Muscle atrophy isn’t a disease it’s just what happens when you have an injury and can’t train. Don’t use muscle- muscle gets smaller.
The sage burning and saying he’s ready to manage the team are the types of things I admire about kyrie .. just a unreal fella
You also forgot to talk about when he stepped on the Celtics Logo 🙃
Hope he gets the help he so desperately needs
Nice breakdown on Kyrie's emotional state. Also I unironically watched the Shabazz video. I have really been enjoying your content lately - I hope your views pick up. Did I miss the Blazers offseason rebuild suggestion video?
Depression sucks. It really question your motivation why you should get up everyday in life
we all lost close relatives, my mom died 2 years ago, did i stop from my job, no, did i put everything went wrong after that event on this, no, will i ever get over it, probably not, but life goes on, mental health is essential and you never actually know what someones been through but i think nowadays we tend to use that as an excuse for everything
It’s obviously clear he’s spiritual not hard to understand 🤷🏾♂️
Damn Casey's so gifted at storytelling.
My grandfather passed away from cancer in 2021 and kyrie, I know what you felt 😢
It's possible to understand where someone is coming from but not agree with them.
Misunderstood is an understatement. His perception of reality is vastly different than... well, reality.
Kyrie reminds me of Jaden Smith when it comes to them being their selves. Both good at their crafts while they are being deemed 'weird"
I know what losing confidence in your body does to your mental health but I also am not gonna act like everyone else is the problem when there’s stuff I need to deal with internally.
i dont really know much about kyrie, but i do appreciate that he stood up against the vaccine mandates
Ashleigh Barty. No. 1 in tennis, Serena Williams-esque level of dominance called it quits. Noami Osaka, set to be the successor to queen Serena also had a breakdown and has not played anywhere near her true level. This happens to a lot of top level sports stars and high functioning individuals. This video is great in that it exposes the human fragility that sport stars not just Ky go through. It's remarkable how a lot of you, who've literally never achieved squat except be everyday Joes can then project your nothingness onto someone as accomplished as this young fella.
I dont think people understand after the earth is flat interview he said he was joking people take things wayy to seriously
The event that ruined his life was saying the earth was flat...that really killed him. I know that sounds crazy, but those kind of statements really tell you about someone.
Dude this is actual journalism.....
Kyrie is a clown
-coach potato
It really bothers me how Kyrie just seems to completely take the game for granted like its not a blessing, your athletic prime is a very short period of your life, and I feel like as he grows older and wiser he'll regret letting all the outside noise get to him and that he should've appreciated his career more.
Holy s*** there are people still saying the earth is flat in the comments. I’m with NDT send them to space.
Kyrie is my favorite player of all time so just watching ppl hate on him made me feel so bad but yk u just ignore those ppl who just keep talking shit
@AK KD fr
A warning would be nice before showing Gordon Hayward’s ankle 😅
You got his audio from his twitch streams. Yeah I watched them too.
Why did you change the name on the video and the thumbnail lol
For more views
2:32 I feel bad for Haywood
prayers up to Kyrie being the only person in history to have a grandparent pass away
Fr
I was working with a dive crew and the guy driving the barge said he was a flat earther, and I'm like how do you think GPS works that your using literally right now?! The other guys were tryin to stop me lol. What a wasted "conversation" & awkward ride back.
Basically they don't want to know any better because they're egos are an infinity of "flat", and Kyrie has done everything humanly possible to confirm this.
“When people see a man at peace, they become his battle” - Me
KYRIE IS MISUNDERSTOOD, THE MAN IS A ROMANTIC
Don’t take drugs unless you want to end up like Kyr11e 😂😂
Pray you don’t ever encounter mental health. You have no idea kiddo. Be careful and be humble.
The media ruins sports.
The long heralded transformation of NBA in the Nuthouse Basketball Association is almost complete.
being a genius can be a curse as well
I mean that's not really defensive, that's just answering a question reporters ask.
Mentally weak people shouldn’t be celebrities… Just like physically weak people shouldn’t be lumberjacks.
I think he found the love for the game again, after been traded to the mavericks
Mark Cuban may have seen what’s up and pulled the right triggers within Kyrie
bruh, Earth is flat
He’s living the “life of a marder” like he once said
At least he can’t spell it wrong when he speaks…
Lol
Thank You for doing this video. I Feel that even before Kyrie's GrandFather's transition the foundational challenge was his MoM transitioning when he was 4. I don't know if Kyrie really processed that. On his "Flat Earth" comments I Feel it's good for us to ?uestion things and to allow others to do the same. Many of us accept spoon fed narratives and "science" although we ourselves have not Seen it with our own EyEs. Kyrie burning Sage was shown and talked about like some New Age, Wiccan hippie practice. It's at those times that we need to check our Puritan, Western Religious beliefs that can See anything that is not Christian as "d/EVIL". One
Kyrie it’s complicated yet simple. You have to understand he adheres to hermetic principles. Not something typical but you end up viewing the world differently.
To disrespect someone because of they're beliefs that's just wrong.
I am one of those intrigued about Shabazz. But I dont think he will ever go back to the league
He never took Lebron’s media manipulation course. Lol
Kyrie is a free thinker. Much respect to a true man. Doesn't do what everyone else does.
Yeah, he doesn’t listen to people who actually do research as their life work. Just his own thoughts and randos online. Such a free thinker 😍😭 foh
Life struggles are no excuse for bad behavior, period.
Correlation between flat earthers and using the word pacific in place of specific.
Can he handle lakers media?
Kyrie-Drama effect 🤣😅😂
You didn’t mention the Uncle Drew stuff at all young blood!
Every person has to deal with all these sorts of issues in life thats how it is if money doesnt buy happiness it certainly helps. If u dont wanna play ball dont quit but getting multi millions certainly an incentive
I was working with a dive crew and the guy driving the barge said he was a flat earther, and I'm like how do you think GPS work that got using literally right now! The other guys were tryin to stop me lol. What a wasted hour of a conversation. Basically they don't want to know any better because they're egos are as flat as infinite, and Kyrie has done everything humanly possible to confirm this.
I feel like Kyrie just let himself go after that 2016 championship
Impossible to misunderstand if there's nothing to understand.
Jaylen Brown next video A.M. Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
