Kyrie Irving’s legacy at Brooklyn Nets is probably the weirdest thing in the recent history of the NBA. So gifted guy, an elite hooper, but at the same time so many off the floor issues to deal with. Irving’s stint at Nets is one of the biggest “what ifs” in the NBA. #NetsWorld – 9:17 PM

Why did Nets suspend Kyrie, not the NBA, you wonder? Because as soon as he’s traded, Irving will be allowed to play. Had NBA did it, he must serve whole suspension.
Same applies to Udoka. Coaching Nets will end year suspension.
Even permit him to coach a game in Boston! – 9:02 PM

He’s suspended at least five games and Irving will only return if “he satisfies a series of objective remedial measures that address the harmful impact of his conduct.” – 8:17 PM

Seems not only is Kyrie Irving suspended at least 5 games but he may not be allowed back until he shows some kind of understanding of the pain he has caused.

What I found especially disturbing during Kyrie’s pressers was his tone. These are real issues that have consequences (six million deaths during the Holocaust) and he seemed annoyed that reporters were questioning him. His dismissiveness of the gravity of the subject was shocking – 8:14 PM

if you’re still wondering how Kyrie feels about Jewish people, “How can I be anti-semitic if I know where I came from?” is the answer. And it’s harmful. And it explains why the Nets (finally) suspended him. – 8:10 PM

Based on Kyrie’s demeanor today and now this suspension, it feels like it may be a wrap for him in Brooklyn.
Where the Nets go from there is unclear. Irving has zero trade value and they would be dealing from a position of weakness in any Kevin Durant trade.
Very bad spot. – 7:53 PM

Lost in all the Kyrie drama is the news about Simmons’ swollen knee — that’s a really bad sign for the Nets. Saturday’s game will mark the fourth straight one he’s missed. This is a player who still has a lot of rust in his game and needs all the reps he can get. – 2:14 PM

Kyrie tweeted out a link to an antisemitic film and it took the league 8 days to say they *might* punish him
The Thunder were a bit relaxed with its injury report on Josh Giddey and it took the league less than 2 days to fine them – 1:55 PM

Many around the league and within the Nets organization were hoping that Kyrie would say at least these two things today:
1. “I’m sorry.”
2. “I don’t have anti-Semitic beliefs.”
That did not happen. – 1:07 PM

The problem now is even if Kyrie is forced into issuing an apology after meeting with Silver, it’ll be empty. He doesn’t want to apologize. He has made that very clear. As he said, he didn’t make the film. (He only promoted it.) – 12:47 PM

So Kyrie doubled down. Can’t get much more clear than that.
He had time to “simmer down” or whatever, time to think through his actions and time to speak to others in order to learn.
He clearly did none of that. He wouldn’t even say he is not anti-Semitic. – 12:26 PM

Jonathan Greenblatt: Good for @BrooklynNets. @KyrieIrving has been given ample opportunity to do the right thing, apologize and condemn #antisemitism. He has failed at almost every step along the way. This suspension is well-deserved. -via Twitter / November 3, 2022
Chris Mannix: What’s happening to Kyrie is entirely self inflicted. He posted the link to the film. He initially refused to take it down. And Irving, as the Nets say, given repeated opportunities to apologize and denounce anti-semitism today, declined to do it. -via Twitter @SIChrisMannix / November 3, 2022
