He really is unbelievable…

Kyrie Irving on Nets: I did what I was supposed to do

Callie Caplan: Kyrie Irving on his trade conversations with Kevin Durant: “It’s water under the bridge now. I wish them well. I left them in fourth place. I did what I was supposed to do, took care of my teammates, was incredibly selfless in my approach to leading.” – via Twitter CallieCaplan

Callie Caplan: Kyrie Irving said he and Luka Doncic have texted since the trade, but “I like eye-to-eye contact.” On how he expects his connection with Luka to build once they meet tomorrow: “It’s going to take some time. Am I worried about coexisting or finding cohesion? No.” – via Twitter CallieCaplan

Wording is slightly different (not just tolerated) but here you go.  Got to about the 1 min mark.

“I did what I was supposed to do.” He really is something else. Playing in half of your team’s games over three years due to racism and sophomoric contrarianism is “doing your job”?

How many teams does it have to not work out for before you look in the mirror and start singing some T Swift: “It’s me. Hi! I’m the problem it’s me.” 🙄

But JPotter, he left them in 4th place and was incredibly selfless in his approach! What more could you ask for??  :laugh:

Yeah, I just saw that clip on NBC Sports Boston. I literally laughed out loud and nearly coughed up my dinner.

What a self-absorbed buffoon.

The full quote isn't that bad

Quote
"I just know I want to be places where I'm celebrated and not just tolerated or just kind of dealt with in a way that doesn't make me feel respected. There were times throughout this process when I was in Brooklyn where I felt very disrespected and my talent -- I work extremely hard at what I do. No one ever talks about my work ethic, though. Everyone talks about what I'm doing off the floor, so I just wanted to change that narrative, write my own story and just continue preparing in the gym, and now that I'm in Dallas, just focus on what I control."

It’s already becoming a disaster for Dallas lol. Just from the media and interviews recently

Now will DAL suspend Irving before having played a game for them for his anti-Semitic comments again  :laugh:

Kyrie is about to become public enemy #1 in Brooklyn. He's lucky Dallas plays @ Brooklyn once a year.

Kyrie being Kyrie, wait til he wipes his shoes on the nets logo to boot. Dallas is doomed and watch them chase Doncic from their too. It wont happen immediately but a self absorbed narcissist will always show their true colors. Soon, but not yet….
