NBA analyst Jason McIntyre went all guns blazing at Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving for his rustic behavior. Kyrie has been suspended after failing to apologize for his tweet which contained a movie link with antisemitic content. However, the analyst also feels that he is the reason why Nets head coach Steve Nash was shown the way out.
Jason McIntyre was talking on Colin Cowherd’s podcast ‘The Herd,’ where he quoted, “You want to guess how many coaches Kyrie Irving has had in his NBA career? Eight coaches in 10 years! They’re calling Kyrie Irving a coach killer. This is the second coach he got fired in Brooklyn.” Kyrie also allegedly had former Brooklyn Nets coach Kenny Atkinson thrown out.
Jason added, “This guy’s one of the most overrated players in NBA history. He hit one shot, that’s it, Game seven against the Warriors, congratulations that’s it yeah no MVP votes.” He also stated that Steve Nash was a much better player and career than Uncle Drew is having.
To my TRIBE
Be still and know, I am All the sacred names of GOD.
Don’t just read this, AFFIRM it right now! Say it through your heart.
I AM ALL the Sacred names of GOD.
Your turn, I am YHWH, Jehovah, Kyrie, Jah, Elohim, and all other names. ONE SOUL

Kyrie Irving’s donations to not be accepted by the ADL
Earlier, the Brooklyn Nets gave out a statement that both the management and Kyrie Irving will make donations of $500k individually to the Anti-Defamation League following the tweet made by Kyrie which had a link to a movie with antisemitic content. However, the ADL has now decided that they won’t be accepting the money given by Kyrie.
A statement regarding the same was released by ADL’s CEO Jonathan Greenblatt. His word came as soon as the Nets suspended Irving for a minimum of five games without pay for his refusal to apologize for his tweet. The Nets, Irving and ADL had previously released a joint statement in which both Irving and the organization committed to donating to ‘causes and organizations that work to eradicate hate and intolerance in our communities.’
We were optimistic but after watching the debacle of a press conference, it’s clear that Kyrie feels no accountability for his actions. @ADL cannot in good conscience accept his donation.

Now that the Nets have suspended Kyrie for five games, owner Joe Tsai was adamant in his tweet that Kyrie’s suspension can go beyond five games. It will be challenging for the Nets to find a suitable replacement as he has been a vital cog in their machine since he joined the franchise.
