Cavaliers Star Kyrie Irving Says Earth Is Flat and Everyone’s Lying

Maybe Kyrie Irving would have benefited from a few more years of that pricey Duke education.

The Cavaliers point guard, who has established himself as one of the premier players in the NBA, caused a stir by saying he believes the earth is flat, not round, while participating on the podcast “Road Tripping with RJ and Channing.”

“This is not even a conspiracy theory,” Kyrie said. “The earth is flat.”

Sorry about that.

You should be sorry. You never answered a single one of those questions.

So, to reiterate; why can't I see the Statue of Liberty from Dallas, even using the most powerful telescope?

[Windflier]

It looks like a photo but isn't.

Perhaps you could look up some actual photos of other solar bodies?

Just a thought.

Trees, Ozarks, and tour admission fees.

Don't be ignorant! ;-)

If Earth is flat, why did the aliens who attacked us on Independence Day have to use our satellites for global positioning?

A bad shooter proves the Coriolis Effect?!
BWAHAHAHAHA

Firearm Science: Bullet Trajectory
0:31 as soon as the bullet leaves the barrel gravity drag and wind force start acting on
0:38 the projectile

Nothing there about the Coriolis Effect.

Wait - gravity is real again?

Cool, I’ll tell Sal so she can untape herself from her couch.

Perhaps you could provide some actual photos of other solar bodies...with the links so it can be seen if they are composites/artist renderings.
You're saying they're real, not me.

No mention of Coriolis Effect here either.

You believe a Hollywood movie is real life! Too funny!!

Actual hi-res photo, not a rendering.

So once again you deflect instead of addressing the actual issue.
Well done.

Everybody knows that picture was produced on a Hollywood set.

Phil, you don't need my help to find photos of other planets. There are literally millions of them online.

The real issue here, is that you don't want to examine any evidence or facts that conflict with the flat earth myth.

And you still haven't answered my question:

If the earth is flat, why can't I see the Statue of Liberty from Dallas, even with the most powerful telescope?

Fog over Appalachia?

Where is the other side of this flat earth he speaks of? Is there something on the other side? What would it be?

The guy is a dam genius!

I’ll be waiting for some answers.

lol

Or he's pulling everybody's leg. Brilliant!

Kyrie was born in Australia (was he named after Kyrie Minogue?).

Maybe he fell off on his way over here.

The airlines are in on the conspiracy also. The windows are radius-ed to cause the curve of the horizon.
