So you want to reward bad behavior just because he’s skilled? Nah man, that’s why celebrities and people in general are so entitled these days.

Kyrie only acting like this cause the harden trade is confirmed. He donโt want to play with harden because their game is similar. Dribble dribble penetrate or shoot

KaNyE IrViNg be like: “I’m supposed to be the franchise player, and we in here talking about a game?. I mean, listen, we’re talking about a game man, not practice, not practice, not practice, we talking about a game. Not practice.”

As a Celtics fan I can say Kyrie is NOT worth the drama. A guy with his mentality is clearly not up to chasing championships.

Kyrie is a team cancer. Congrats Nets. You have 2 of the most cancerous players on your team in Kyrie and now James Harden. Have fun with that.

Nine seasons entering this season. Only two All-NBA selections. In four of those seasons, he missed at least 25 percent of his team’s games. I don’t think he’s worth the trouble.
