Given how close he seems to a group of WNBA players I'd be shocked if he didn't support pride month, I don't see any need to speculate on his personal life or orientation because of the shoes.

(heck just business wise given the NBA and his shoe's demo target its likely a good thing to do for business if you're a cynic)

I'm surprised no one posted the latest gossip from Kyrie's latest IG post  ::)

Just saw that.

Pretty good sign he is coming back to Boston. Right?
He filmed a commercial with his Dad with "no better place than here" about the Garden, and talking about putting his number in the rafters. And all the drama still occurred when he could have shut it down if he had wanted.

Kyrie is willing to change course or say things in the moment without worrying about the future lol.

Glad to see we've hit the same point as Lakers twitter. Who are convinced that LBJ looks too happy in his offseason vacation picks to not have a FA lined up (and probably an AD trade too).

Kyrie Irving has given 'every indication' to Nets he wants to sign there - Stephen A?

While I'm in the corner that I'd love to have him back I'm certain there will be some angst among his detractors on here IF he comes back.

I cannot lie - I think things here will be calmer on the blog if he leaves.

Sure - we'll be a borderline lottery team and FAs will avoid us like the plague but HEY we'll be one big happy family again.

Well Stephen A Smith predicted Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to Brooklyn, and LeBron to Miami. So there are some merits to his predictions lol.

Oh I have no idea, just adding it to the list of things that get dissected to death on this board. Figured the Larry Bird mention and green font would rile a few folks up.

I mean he is still employed for the Boston Celtics until June 30th 6pm EST, right? So gotta post everything Celtics-like until that day comes.

Technically, he has to opt out on June 13th. So he will be a free agent then.

I won't believe anyone unless it's Woj or Shams, or Danny himself. I won't even believe Kyrie.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Dayum, times are tough when some won't even believe the man himself but believe in others regarding himself!  :(

I still believe Kyrie will keep his word and re-sign with Celtics, but if he leaves let it be the Nets, just not the Lakers.

I would swap Kyrie and Rozier for Dinwiddie and D'Angelo.
