Reminder that Magic Johnson continued to play with full-blown AIDS
“If Harden or Durant were to support Iriving, maybe even say, “We Won’t play without Kyrie,” the Nets would have no choice but to back down.”
Players of any other generation would have definitely done that.
At least Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors) said it was up to Andrew Wiggins to decide whether to be vaccinated or not. I’m sure Curry talked with him behind the scenes, but publicly, he supported whatever Wiggins decided. There isn’t much of that in pro sports these days.
Surprise! Your supposed friends are really your enemies.
NBA? Who’s watching? They certainly are not role models for the youth in the family.
Well, the story isn’t being quite fair to the Nets. Under New York law, Irving can’t play in Brooklyn if he isn’t vaccinated. So the question for the team was whether they’d play with him only in away games. The team decided that flipping back and forth between having him and not having him on a nightly basis wouldn’t work, so they said if he can’t play in home games, they won’t play him in away games. But he IS getting paid for any away games he misses.
Rather than Irving have to capitulate, his teammates should have the gonads to stand by him and back him up.

Many of my coworkers said they too would walk rather than get the jab. ONE of them is onside with me since the edict came from Corporate.
