  1. I always agreed with SAS about the missing work situation; but I used to try to give Kyrie some consideration. That was until he came on a podcast and went on a little narcissistic rant about how he was a martyr for not taking the vaccine. I was like seriously dude; are you serious?! Tim Legler was right; the guy is just a narcissist and takes zero accountability for what he does. The Nets are going to be far better off without him; and I have no sympathy for Mav fans for with what they're going to have start dealing with very soon.

  2. Yall So Stupid Very Stupid And Dumb Know Your History You’re Living In A Matrix Ppl Kyrie Has Tapped Into Who He Truly Is Of Course Ppl Who Hasn’t Tapped In Will Say He’s Crazy

  3. I love how they hired actors to fake laugh and cheer to make Stephen A. feel good…

  4. Stephen A Smith A Sellout Goes On Black Podcast Preaching He Black But Doesn’t Have Anything To Say About When White Ppl Do Something Some Proud Black Man You Are

  5. Smh 🤦🏾‍♂️ it seem like ppl are mad that he’s not a yes master type of player … ya all sound brainwashed… I wish you the best … I’m from NY I’m glad he didn’t crumble and spoke his mind .. everybody wasnt proud and wanted to get vaccinated .. you don’t speak for NY

  6. He is proving Jay right. Its personal. Watch how many sports talk others go in

    Fact is…. He did his job this year…. These ppl can’t let the past go.

    Fiction…. Mad Dog said he got vaccinated and he didn’t. NY lifted the mandate.

    Fiction…. One player can’t blow up a franchise in any team sport. They didn’t have to trade him.

    And since these talking heads want to keep talking about the past, starting in 20-21 season, Nets management hired the wrong coach; had Udoka available before going to Boston and had Nets playing defense; traded away what made them attractive to FAs in the first place – cap space, young core and picks, for a guy who showed you what he was in Houston. Then he gets to Brooklyn out of shape and can’t shake back and hammy issues. Then you trade him away and your roster consists of Blake Griffin, Lamarcus Aldridge, struggling Joe Harris, a 7th-8th man in Miles and a few young players to go with KD and Kyrie.

    And nobody is talking about management. And when I bought this up in another comment section, these moves were to “appease” KD and Kyrie.

    No GM and owner in their right minds would hire a coach little to no coaching experience at all to coach these two superstars and the young talent they had. They also would not allow “players” to tell them what to do.

    The great winning teams did not win those rings with players telling management who to put on the roster and who to hire as coach. The only teams that come to mind is the Lebron Cavs 2nd stint (one chip) and the current Lakers with Lebron (one chip). And how has that worked since they let Caruso, KCP, Kuzma, and Thorton-Tucker walk and have to now settle for Westbrook, Beverley, Brown, Jr. Schroeder…… ????

  7. All of yall kryie haters are pathetic. He did not have to sign that contract and the nets franchise is trash and kd isn't a leader. He deserved to leave yall trash franchise after how yall treated him Over vaccines and Amazon movies. Yall will never have a ring like kyrie. Cry about it

  8. Mad dog said Kyrie killed Cleveland 🤔
    Last time I checked Kyrie hit the game winning shot to win the Championship 🏆
    The media I tell you… 🤷🏾‍♂️

  9. Kylie is a waste! He has a championship ring because of Lebron, PERIOD!! This guy is clueless on how to be a good teammate, Garbage

  10. They keep talking about Kyrie and his availability and commitment. How many games did he miss this year? How many of the games that he was allowed to play in last year did he miss? He was a clutch player. Leading the league in 4th quarter scoring. He kept the team afloat when KD got hurt. Thats why he said he did what he was supposed to do. The team did not want to commit to him so he did want to be there. What am I missing.

  11. He'll cycle thru teams each year and keep asking for big extensions while not committing to the team

  12. Meanwhile New York State is repaying everyone they fired for not taking the shot. Yet these idiots are still on tv telling a grown man what to do with his career. Is JJ Jewish or is his wife, because that would explain his point of view.

  13. I already new this "brother" was going to bash Kyrie. Stephen A is a true house N.
    You notice no athletes want to ever engage with him? I wonder why.

  14. All people do is cry about Kyrie being a MAN. Standing in his morals and being true to self. Something a lot of guys in the league wouldn’t do because of the bread. Just facts. 💯

  15. SAS gets carried away but Kyrie is the most selfish player I have seen in my life. No sense of accountability.

  16. Hahah I love Stephen A!!! He’s the best!! Just destroyed Kyrie, I’ve never liked kyrie!!! People now see who Kylie’s really like, absolutely delusional
