Irving is currently suspended from the Nets for at least five games after a tumultuous week in which he endorsed an antisemitic film and refused to back down in media sessions.
For Irving to return, he must meet with the media and issue a verbal apology that clearly states he’s sorry for sharing the film and understands the film is harmful and untrue.

When one is engaged in publishing one should try to get things right.
This is especially important for important conservatives as I believe lies are being fabricated to make conservatives look like fools.
Apparently, you're the sort of person who goes to the ADL and the SPLC for "expertise". Your personal credibility is zero.
Have a nice day.
Kyrie doesn’t stand a chance with his opinions;
“nearly half the principal owners of NBA teams are Jewish, as are the league’s current commissioner and its immediate past commissioner”.
It’s a terrific story, and what harm is there to believing in it? By helping to unify the country, the story sustained Ethiopia as a nation through the mid 20th Century, when it was invaded by Italy, and then occupied and devastated by war. The overthrow of the Solomon Dynasty hasn’t brought good fortune to the country.
“The Southern Poverty Law Center was founded by civil rights lawyers Morris Dees and Joseph J. Levin Jr. in August 1971 as a law firm originally focused on issues such as fighting poverty, racial discrimination and the death penalty in the United States. Dees asked civil rights leader Julian Bond to serve as president, a largely honorary position; he resigned in 1979 but remained on the board of directors until his death in 2015.”

“Dees was one of the principal architects of a strategy that used civil lawsuits to secure a court judgment for monetary damages against an organization for a wrongful act. The courts could potentially seize organization assets in order to gain payment of the judgment. Dees said that the aim was to gain large judgements which would ‘clean their clock’.”

His real crime was not taking the jab and this is just an excuse to persecute him.
And we have a winner! He absolutely embarrassed ownership by his refusal to comply and this is one way to put him in his place.

Kyrie went off the plantation on the clot-shot
“Leo Max Frank (April 17, 1884 – August 17, 1915) was an American factory superintendent who was convicted in 1913 of the murder of a 13-year-old employee, Mary Phagan, in Atlanta, Georgia. His trial, conviction, and appeals attracted national attention. His lynching two years later, in response to the commutation of his death sentence....”
“On the afternoon of August 16, the eight cars of the lynch mob left Marietta separately for Milledgeville. They arrived at the prison at around 10:00 p.m., and the electrician cut the telephone wires, members of the group drained the gas from the prison’s automobiles, handcuffed the warden, seized Frank, and drove away. The 175-mile (282 km) trip took about seven hours at a top speed of 18 miles per hour (29 km/h) through small towns on back roads.... A site at Frey’s Gin, two miles (3 km) east of Marietta, had been prepared, complete with a rope and table...The New York Times reported Frank was handcuffed, his legs tied at the ankles, and that he was hanged from a branch of a tree at around 7:00 a.m., facing the direction of the house where Phagan had lived.”

Seems likely that the League is punishing Kyrie, and the Nets may want simply want to void his contract at this point.
This time next year Kyrie may be playing basketball in Europe.
“The Dearborn Independent, also known as The Ford International Weekly, was a weekly newspaper established in 1901, and published by Henry Ford from 1919 through 1927. The paper reached a circulation of 900,000 by 1925, second only to the New York Daily News, largely due to a quota system for promotion imposed on Ford dealers. Lawsuits regarding antisemitic material published in the paper caused Ford to close it, and the last issue was published in December 1927.”

On November 1, 2032 a new 100% black-owned and run basketball league might go into operation.
Current black players might limit their NBA contractual obligations to time periods before then.
lynched ... doesn’t speak well of hating Jews
Would a player who mocked Christians be suspended even for one day?
You are correct.
There’s a post up thread summarizing the movie. It’s loonie Third Reich stuff dusted off and melanin added.
So, Kyle here is off my Hanukkah card list.
But cancel culture is stupid, and I fully support his right to expose himself as a retard. Ignore him and move along.
Not saying that he IS anti-Semitic, but IF he is, SO WHAT?
Is it “illegal” to be anti-Semitic?
I’m anti-Democrat, (most Jews vote Democrat) does that make me a anti-Semitic?
I know that many would say that I NEED sensitivity training, but
“Radicals and racists, don’t point your finger at me
I’m a small town white boy just trying to make ends meet”

Interesting tidbit from Wikipedia that might be germaine ...
“In April 2021, Irving announced that he is committed to Islam (and other religions), saying “For me, in terms of my faith and what I believe in, being part of the Muslim community, being committed to Islam, and also just being committed to all races and cultures, religions, just having an understanding and respect”.[187] Irving has been fasting for Ramadan since 2021.[188]”
Actually I think they’d rather he not do those things so they can cut him. He’s just not worth the headache.
100% +
Exactly!
The 'black Hebrews' were convenient when they taunted a bunch of kids from Kentucky, and...
why no criticism of Amazon for renting/selling the movie?
He just found out that his victim-group card isn’t as powerful as some of the others out there.
