The Nets today said that Kyrie Irving will not play or practice with the team until he is eligible to be a full participant

[@ShamsCharania] Kyrie Irving will not play or practice with the team until he is full participant, Nets say.

lol. I wonder how long this will go on for.

Kyrie has a 0.0001% chance of dying from covid...I just dont get it man...why are they forcing him to get vaxed? They dont force alcoholics to stop drinking....even though they can kill ppl



And even if he does get vaccinated....he can still.....transmit.....the virus



I hope he takes this to court if they try to withhold his money...KD i cant believe you let this happen to your "friend"......over a game...they would of never did this if you didnt give them the OK....unbelievable

Good decision. Now the team can move forward around KD and Harden which frankly is much better chemistry. Harden can drop 25-30 in his sleep while playing PG at an elite level, and KD will give you another 27-28 campaign.

Kyrie can now sit out the year and maybe next year and continue his quest to prove the Earth is flat and the Nets don't have to pay him.

Both sides win.

A guy who is prevented by state law from playing in like 49 of 82 games really isn’t doing you much good. What use is him practicing and limiting the time whoever actually plays in his stead gets with the first team? There are cities he might as well not even travel to. Toronto could give him 6 months in jail if he even left the team hotel as they played without him. They should be paying him 30 million or whatever to play 30 or so minutes a night in 30 away games. I’m not sure Kyries contribution on the floor is worth 2 million dollars an hour of PT. Not for the nets who already have 2 god tier scorers.

On a team in a city without the same rules….ok. He could play all but 5-6 road teams I think. Missing all your home games and a bunch of road ones too?

Thats just bad business. Maaaaaybe keep him tucked away for the playoffs….but if the warriors make it or one of the LA teams it’s possible he’s out the whole finals.

Why pay all that money? To create good will with a guy you can obviously do without from both a personality and basketball standpoint?

That team with Ben Simmons to play point when Harden sits and just focus on D and pushing the tempo would be crazy. Wouldn’t need him to score at all. Just create threes, run the floor hard, guard everyone from 6’2” to 6’10” and stay out of the way.

New York will be the last city in America to drop the Covid rules. I don’t know what good he does under these conditions for a team that doesn’t need any help in the regular season. And getting home Court actually reduces how much he can help in the playoffs anyway.

Seems like he just needs to be elsewhere.

Couldn't they just pay him for the games he plays? Don't pay the ones he doesn't play.

His salary is 35mill. Subtract 425k per games missed. Not like the players' union have a case. If kyrie takes the nets to the court over the money he didn't get paid, he would probably lose the argument.

So what do they even do with him at this point? He claimed he'd retire if he was ever traded, so it's not like you can even get anything of value back if teams worry he'll carry out that threat. And as Blaze said, the ironic part is they don't even need him to win the title anyway :lol

I am surprised more people don't see it. Kyrie has zero passion for playing basketball, hence his threat of retirement if he gets traded. He's been half committed to the game for two years now, just taking off whenever he wants.

This is kind of like the psychology of suicide by cop. He doesn't have the guts to retire on his own, this way he gets to make it look as if he was forced out.

Let him sit then let him walk when the time comes. Nobody else is going to want to sign him for the baggage he brings and he's never proven to exactly be a net positive in the W/L column.

I wouldn't be surprised if the last time you saw Kyrie on a NBA court is the last time you ever will.

Its a slow chokehold. If you tell somebody they can't have a job and can't buy food or pay for a place to live it is being forced.

You're playing a silly semantic game. If someone put a gun to my head and told me I can do what they say and live, or refuse and die technically I still have a choice. Doesnt mean it isn't being forced for me to go one way.

Yep, and I also think he believed all the “do it on my own as the alpha closer” stuff Kobe gassed him with, until he got to Boston and realized he couldnt do it on his own and WAS going to get exposed. So he had elective surgery before the playoffs, eventually forced his way out of the Boston situation where he was the man, joined KD but when he realized the BEST case scenario was to win another chip as Robin, he started sabotaging his own career.

He has too much pride to ride shotgun, but he just aint built to be the driver.

He doesnt wanna face it and doesnt want other people to know it.

This is actually a really great hypothesis. As talented as Kyrie is, he is NOT a franchise player, or someone capable of leading a team to the title as their best player. He absolutely wanted to prove that he could win as the top dog a la Kobe, but he is simply not that caliber of player, esp when you factor in leadership & health where he is as lacking for a star player as they come.

I believe Texas governor made it illegal to require vaccination for a job.

Kyrie would also get his good mood back playing with a chill group there, that cares less about keeping up apperances.

It would be a perfect fit, Kyrie has literally played the same role with Lebron.

So a grocery store requiring you to use curbside pickup or delivery is murdering you?

The 100+ million unvaccinated people are about to be homeless because a few(very few) landlords set rules they chose not to follow?

Shall we make a bet that the homeless population does not in fact reach 100 million? Or do you actually know better and keep playing dumb?

Absolutely nothing happening here is even worth talking about from a freedom perspective. Soft ass society right now. Being murdered by curbside pickup, not attending the Keith Sweat show, and having to get tested for your job….at certain jobs.

Yeah good synopsis. Don't we all know the guy that says "oh well I COULD'VE gone to medical school, I could've gone to law school, I could've done this or that but blah blah." It's more palatable to the mind to sandbag yourself and say what you could've done if tried, than to actually try 100% and have that the reality that you're not as good as you thought you were solidified for the world to see.

But damn, being a all-star level player and NBA champion that's made millions is a better career than the majority of NBA players. So he's not Kobe or even a #1 on a championship team. Nothing to be ashamed of. He let all of those people that told him that he won Lebron a title pump his head up. Kyrie is a lost, confused dude.

It's a real life example of collective action against a societal issue.

If you're really pissed about this, go out and organize folks and overthrow your state government. I'll be right there shoulder to shoulder with you, in a hazmat suit.

All I'm saying is, losing your job over the vax wouldn't be much of an issue if you didn't have to worry about paying rent. I didn't want to get it either, I don't like needles and I don't ever get sick. It will reduce the chance of you getting covid. I would reduce your ability to spread it. Vaccines have knocked out horrible diseases in the past and we don't even worry about them now (Smallpox? Polio?)

Not allowed inside any building without injection certification? Its already happening in some of the biggest cities in our country.

As far as landlords setting rules the point just whooshed over your head. If you cant make money you cant pay rent and thus lose your housing. They don't need landlords to do anything to apply that chokehold.

I don’t think anyone should take their “team” side on everything. It’s hard to take a good look and think one way about the wide range of issues facing the world.

I for one have never been that worried about minimum wage increases. I’ve always said low pay exists because people accept it. I must have said on here 100 times that if people won’t flip burgers for 9 dollars a business would pay more or close. And look what has happened. People won’t work shitty jobs anymore and wages are rising by necessity.

People talking about unemployment clearly aren’t on the ground level. People are flat out quitting and not being eligible and don’t care. Doing gig work. Starting their own business. All it ever took to raise wages was a refusal to accept bad pay.

As with most things it just depends on how you look at it.

Yes but as a society we cede some level of lawmaking to government officials, thats a requirement for any basically developed civilization. The way we keep leaders in check is by having a Constitution their laws cant violate.

Are wage laws and discrimination laws etc constitutionally under the government’s jurisdiction? If yes, then gov should also protect free speech and health privacy rights for workers. Otherwise it should be up to business to hire, pay, fire, and mandate as they please.

You’re being absolutely nothing more than a global warming alarmist. Make up a bunch of idiotic doomsday scenarios to win an argument normal people don’t even take serious.

Disagree all you like. You’re gonna watch me be right just like the climate change doom sayers.

All you have are laughable scenarios that will never happen. Keep posting random examples the next few months. The unvaccinated will continue to eat, work, and live. There will be fewer of you sure….but not because Biden starved you to death not letting instacart drop off your groceries(which is already non contact unless you have age restricted items). It will be because many of you will be inconvenienced into getting the shot.

Inconvenience will work so well force isn’t required. Making spoiled Americans inconvenience themselves will get you 200 million easy.

These “But doesnt that mean….” arguments are always weird to me regardless of the subject. All pointing out the hypocrisy of the other side does is point out the hypocrisy of the person making the argument in the process. The anti mask people saying a business owner shouldn’t be able to make them wear a mask on his property or leave while also trying to stand up for his right to enforce his own rules and desires in other ways is just as conflicted as your opposing example.

Its just like sports talk. “But doesnt that mean….” always makes both sides look like idiots because the person talking has to either admit his own conflict or that he doesn’t have a real point.

On this particular one I recall many times reading someone do the “Oh yea….and they should be able to serve who they want as well right?” argument when talking about business owners having the right to enforce a dress code. People who call it discriminatory to not serve them without a mask but actually favor allowing discrimination. Just a tough line to walk.

The NBA stood up for its players during the BLM protests but now turns their back on players for exercising medical rights. Goes to show NBA will just take whatever position is politically expedient at the moment. Sean Marks is a mark ass bitch for not standing up for his players and demand NBA/NYC drop their idiotic and useless mandates.

Obviously it isn’t. So long as people choose not to get it and nobody injects it against their will they aren’t being forced. It’s like we forgot what some words mean. There are 150 million of you at this point. If you were being forced there wouldn’t be….any.

If you take away the basis to live, its forced.

Thats not the case here.

But your remark on the definition of the word is obviously false.

If unvaccinated people can‘t enter supermarkets or hospitals anymore, they‘re obviously getting forced.

Harden turned down the contract extension this offseason, Irving doesn't even want to play.

Sounds like these two want nothing to do with each other and the only thing in common between them is they are friends with Kevin Durant. Harden's body language was always terrible when Irving had the ball in his hands.

Durant should be a leader and put them in their place. Oh well, harden\durant vs george\kawhi is more equal anyway, Irving just makes it a cheat team.

People who call it discriminatory to not serve them without a mask but actually favor allowing discrimination. Just a tough line to walk.

What about when they require vaccination ID for delivery sign off? Or you can't even go into a grocery store (or any indoor facility)? You don't believe that's an extreme level of coercion and force? Not allowed inside any building without injection certification? Its already happening in some of the biggest cities in our country.

As far as landlords setting rules the point just whooshed over your head. If you cant make money you cant pay rent and thus lose your housing. They don't need landlords to do anything to apply that chokehold.

The only people that are soft are people that bent over to all these lies and lacked foresight to see where this whole situation is headed and what its about.

And you still think its about a concert lmao.

Stop being an idiot. If this is truly going to prevent Kyrie from putting food on the table, he has no one to blame but himself for this. He had the option to go somewhere else where he can get away with not being vaccinated. He threw that chance out the window the moment he said he would retire if he was traded, thus making him literally untradeable. He played his hand and now he has to deal with the consequences of his actions. His solution to this problem is a very simple one: swallow his pride, take the vaccine that has been proven to be safe and stop being a fukking nut job. That's literally all he has to do.

I will always be thankful for what he did to bring Cleveland a title but this will ultimately be his own undoing. Congrats to the Brooklyn Nets, you've officially fukked yourself over and are now reduced to having KD and Harden as your two main stars with no depth.

There is a huge segment of the population that does not really fit this narrative to me. Many tens of millions of people look into things just like you do and simply don’t agree with your conclusion. There is nothing alpha or beta about it. They just think you’re wrong. I often hear people talking about the need to question things and look into it with no acknowledgment of the fact that people can question and come to the same conclusion reached by those making the suggestion.

But I keep hearing about liberal sheep and being uninformed and all….

This is all speculation but I would imagine with KD and Harden the same age, there is a different synergy.

People forget Kyrie came in the league real young. harden and KD are both 32-33 and I believe Harden seriously wants to win a title more than accumulate stats.

I also feel like to be a professional athlete there is a different risk you have and when you are an NBA star, you are not normal. These guys want to be talked about being treated as normal but they aren't. They generate so much money and in turn make a handsome amount of money.

Kyrie is entitled to not be vaccinated so the Nets to me basically are respecting that decision while also not entertaining another complex way for lesser players who may try to play when they want to play.

This isn't about the Vaccine for Brooklyn, it's about setting the tone that being available to play is valuable. All we need is several other players doing what Irving do. Opens up a flood gate. It was the right move.

Yeah, not being able to eat at a resturant in some states is totally equivalent to how Japanese-Americans were treated back then. Great analysis and insight. And being unvaxxed is a choice, unlike being whatever race you were born.

I can't really defend the comparison he made, but the US govt still has the power to do what they did to the Japanese. That's never been taken away.

It doesn't matter if the division is by choice or what someone looks like. It's the same us vs them mechanism that obfuscates our capacity to overcome differences.

The suspicion, paranoia, hysteria, and segregation is the point.

Remember folks, its not being forced. Kyrie can go work at a burger king or something. But not corporate, theyre mandating them. They havent mandated the minimum wage workers yet so he'll have to settle for burger flipping.

aren’t you a Republitard? aren’t they all for private companies having their own jurisdiction to do what they like with their employees? you should be celebrating this :lol

This thread is full top to bottom of the dumbest mother****ing idiots on the face of the earth. I'm not surprised by that. What I'm surprised by is that approximately 0.0 ****ing percent of you aren't illiterate retards.

Here's the facts.

Person A is vaccinated.
Person B isn't vaccinated.

Person C has covid (vaccinated or not).

If person A and person B are both exposed in an equal sense to person C, person B has a FIVE TIMES HIGHER CHANCE of contracting covid than person A.

That is why being vaccinated affects other peoples health.

You dumb ****s. It is incredible that human beings can be this ****ing stupid and useless.

But then again. It isn't.

LOL. ****ing RETARDS.l

Ok, so our system of private ownership of resources is forcing hundreds of millions of people into labor, because if they don't, they can't buy food or pay for a place to live. Welcome to the team, fellow socialist!

The Nazis were HUGE on science.

Used it to justify just about everything they did.

And the german volk (public) believed whatever the government said, because "if they say it's science it must be true!"

The average shmuck doesnt know better. If you call it science he thinks he's smart for believing it without having a clue what it means :roll:

apples to oranges comparison in using Nazi practices to validate ill-malice vs a worldwide collaboration to end a pandemic.

biggest difference from the Nazi fear mongering examples are all the the independent studies to covid and the vax throughout the world, with separately funded research by entity or country, all primarily coming to the same conclusion through peer reviews, etc. it's not isolated or controlled to one subset, like the Nazi's did.

Yes, being striped off the right to go to supermarkets is such a first world problem / complaint smh, toughen up softies!


In a world where all that means is someone puts it on your doorstep or you sit in the ac while they bring it to your car…yes. It’s absolutely the complaint of a soft ass first worlder with no perspective on what real problems are.

Dude flat out told me it’s murder by denying people food. He’s gonna die…because of curbside pickup. It’s just fear mongering bullshit Because that is what people with a bad argument have to do. Can’t win over anyone with reality. Maybe scare some stupid people though.

And as with every other alarmist…be wrong…then move the goal posts.
