“I’m not here to judge somebody or talk down on the life or how they feel their views. I just didn’t like anything that went on. I felt like it was all unnecessary. I felt like we could have just kept playing basketball and kept quiet as an organization.”

KD – Just wanna clarify the statements I made at shootaround, I see some people are confused..I don’t condone hate speech or anti-semetism, I’m about spreading love always. Our game Unites people and I wanna make sure that’s at the forefront

The enablement continues. The mess continues.
How in the world do some of you see this turning around to some sort of championship season again?
The clarification tweet was very necessary… can we just have 1 normal day please
can we just fucking hoop why is there so much political bullshit this is a basketball team
What a weak leader. Most disappointed athlete I’ve ever followed
kd hates the nets front office. Prob should have moved him during the summer but everyone and their mother had high hopes for Simmons.
This team will hold a fire sale between December 15 and the deadline unless there is some miraculous turnaround with long winning streaks. This “what if” era of nets basketball is over.
He’s already being called an anti-Semite on twitter; and the blue check verified accounts are jumping in too. Smh
No, KD. You should be the one to keep quiet & play basketball.
Now you’re gonna keep this stupid Kyrie distraction alive with this stupid take.
Imagine Kyrie was white; he tweets about a movie glorifying the white race as the chosen race & diminishing others (esp blacks) mixed with certain falsehoods, and then a white teammate utters exactly what KD just said.
*”…we could have just kept playing basketball and kept quiet..”*
How will you feel, KD?
Always enabling Kyrie’s bs. Always!
Kyrie needs to be held accountable for his stupid actions.
KD is right, if Tsai didn’t tweet about it this would have never been so huge and the documentary would have never been a best seller on Amazon. And honestly now KD is most likely gonna want to get out of here again since one of his reasons was “The team can’t win games without me and they play me 40 minutes a night”.
This guy ain’t no leader
Folks really got an obsession telling black people what to do.
Who taught these guys PR? BP? Prince Andrew? Richard Nixon’s reanimated corpse?
Just condemn antisemitism the first time round so you don’t have to clarify anything. It’s really not that hard and it shouldn’t be hard at all as it’s a sentiment literally all of us should share.
KD: “This is the way the NBA is now, media, so many outlets now and their stories hit pretty fast now. So that’s where all the chaos is coming from. Everybody has an opinion on the situation, and we’re hearing it nonstop.”

Yes, do not stand for anything or hold humans accountable for their actions
Just sweep it all under the rug KD 🙄
BLOW.
IT.
UP.
NOW!
Oof, man kyrie putting PR in a washing machine w this shit
And stop letting people like Friedell in your media sessions. If you are the owner etc, if you know he stirs up controversy why is he constantly allowed there.
Jesus Christ at this point just blow it all up and rebuild
I thought these two will bring us chips back-to-back. I thought we will have a shot at one chip after that toe on a line vs MIL. KD is one of my favorites, Kai is absolutely my favorite player because of his style and handling. But I can’t support these two morons anymore. Thank God, Joey Buckets is still here. We still have someone to like and support.
