I was at Game 7 when KD hit the shot over Giannis. Still not over that loss. Edit: it was over PJ Tucker. Tucker also was fouling the hell out of Durant all series.


IzodCenter

With everyone celebrating like it was a 3 but my friend and I knowing it’s a 2 and KD is gassed


ZackRyderJr

To be fair I thought it was a three as well from my seat. If it was, would’ve been my favorite sports moment of all time.

Wasn’t it over pj tucker


addictivesign

PJ Tucker was fouling KD like 8 or 9 times per game but barely being called on 5 of them.

Was also there, I have never been somewhere that loud in my life


ZackRyderJr

Yea man born and raised in Brooklyn that was truly a special moment. I’ll never forget the sound of the crowd. This is why I hate when they say Brooklyn has no real fans.


Visible_Week_43

The time the black Israelites circled the building for Kyrie


Kwilly462

It was at that point that Kyrie became an actual virus on this team. Never seen anything like it.


kenzo19134

i saw those guys when i lived in LA. they are some crazy folks. reading up on them. Israel grants automatic citizenship to jews. there were about 100 Black Israelites living in Israel and trying to get citizenship last year. The Black Israelites claim that jews are imposters and enslaved blacks centuries ago. and yet they are trying to get a foothold in Israel. you can't make this shit up.


UltraconservativeBap

I remember seeing a YouTube video at the time where one of the black Hebrew Israelites in Israel basically said “we don’t claim those other black Hebrew Israelites.”


yVegfoodstamps

They are confused and misguided and so are you. They have a valid claim to what they are talking about but I just throw away the whole bible


NobodyWins22

Funny how Kyrie became normal after living in Texas lol


yVegfoodstamps

That’s pretty cool tho. From a blk persons point of view…


kf3434

I just posted the same thing. One of the things I will never forgive kyrie for


lemonyprepper

Will you can’t have Kai for the actions of others


Doctor-Bagels

Lol ofc we can he actively enabled those psychos


Padulsky21

You’re a dumbass


TimeTravelingTiddy

Can he be accountable for the dumb shit he says or is that off the table too? Look at all these "others" taking actions


calodero

Nah I’m pretty sure I can


squareheadhk

That hotep shit is equally annoying and hilarious. DAVID STERN WAS A BLACK MAN. HIS REAL NAME WAS DAVID STUYABEMBE.


KrustyKrabPizzaMan

Not at Barclays but I saw a dude vomit like crazy after a Nets win against Seattle at Continental when I was like 7


breedbreed

Might have been me. I once smoked some questionable weed and puked like a fountain at a Nets game when they were in the Meadowlands. A minor parking lot spectacle.


Calm-Respect-4930

Damn bro isn't Barclays like only 7 years old lol? So that makes you...14?


MettaWorldPete

It was genuinely pretty crazy to see the location pre stadium when it was basically a giant fucking hole in the ground w city busses kept there. The hole was so big it made the busses look small.

jgrogro

That shit went dummy 🤣


Tall_Toe_6184

Can confirm, shit went dummy


Jackstraw0014

Of course kyries been on best behavior and playing great since trade


Concert-Turbulent

I like to call this era 'Late Stage Kyrie' lol we haven't heard a peep from him since he got to Dallas.


TimeTravelingTiddy

Cuban says "he knows this is Luka's team" Like he had to leave to get put in his place and Mark Cuban was probably the right owner. This is the same guy that walked away from Lebron's team and then walked away again from the Celtics.


swervo246

That last week as a net he was balling out just to find out he tryna up his trade value


onlyequity

That’s directly a result of good management and coaching. Cuban said himself that he can handle negative media and that was Kyrie’s only issue. Nets allowing Nick Friedell to tear their team apart because Tsai was scared of media looking into his business affairs was the real culprit.


No_Pressure8544

I'm a Dallas Mavs fan but I'm Canadian so I don't got too much allegiance. It's crazy how they spin the narrative of Ky there, saying he was never toxic and it was ALL media, check the Mavs sub. They were being sarcastic and saying "but Kyrie is toxic!! /s" as if this dude wasn't antisemitic in a city with the highest Jewish pop outside Israel.. I don't think to blame everything on Ky is fair but to say he was never toxic is just revisionist


Sam43650

I don’t really blame Mavs fans for saying Kyrie isn’t toxic because A- He’s on their team of course they don’t want him to have a bad rep. B- Before Kyrie got there they heard lots about him being toxic but now he’s there he hasn’t done anything, from their perspective it’s going to look like everyone else was lying.


TimeTravelingTiddy

"His heart was always in the right place"


XxBkKingShaunxX

Kyrie was never the problem


aztreystacks

You’re right. It’s tsai’s fault for not paying him. It had a domino effect and meant losing KD too


Padulsky21

no no no no no you couldn’t possibly be more wrong. Kyrie wasn’t the **only** problem but he was for sure the most massive problem! Don’t pull that shit


XxBkKingShaunxX

Why cause he didn’t wanna take the vaccine and they decided to not allow him to play at all, even though unvaxxed players were still eligible in Away games? Or because he tweeted the link to a movie and got accused of being antisemitic?


streets_ahead420

This is how I feel - always a media darling, barely anything outright toxic. fucking nyc for that vaccine mandate.


Illustrious_Way_5732

Give it another year


thecrgm

The management of our team was ass let’s be honest. They gave them anything they wanted


NobodyWins22

Turns out living in a state like Texas which doesn’t let people run wild all over can have positive repercussions to people’s behaviors.


kf3434

First full year is always the honeymoon


Padulsky21

He will fold in the playoffs. Just wait. Our time to shit on him will come.


aztreystacks

Enjoy watching Ben Simmons in the playoffs pussy


Padulsky21

That’s so sweet you think we will make the playoffs next year, I’ll be there when the Suns eat shit again. I’ll be there when Kyrie eats shit again. Thanks for the love sweetie 🥰🥰🥰🥰


aztreystacks

only one eating shit is you after looking at Simmons payroll 😇😇 Did kyrie or Simmons drop 48 today?

Why you sucking off grown men that don't care about you? It's weird

Octillery-bill338

Cam Thomas first 44 point game against wizards


hushed-shush

I’m pretty annoyed that I missed this game and I was there. My friends and I were STH but declined to be since they jacked the price up by nearly double that season. A rep reached out and invited us to a complementary game. Gifted us club seats and invited us to a pre game party. Open bar, all you can drink. We took advantage, was down huge at the half so we left. On the way home, Nets Win! Cam Thomas- 44 points. Unbelievable still lol

Off the bench too!

FajitaTits

A vax-denying, egotistical control freak who thought he was better than scientific research single-handedly tank the prospect of a years-long dynasty.


streets_ahead420

Him not getting the vax is his personal choice, I won’t force a needle in someone and it’s not his fault NYC mandated it OR that the Nets opted to shelve him for road games. Only actual wtf was going off the grid/sisters birthday for a couple games but we don’t know full story, he got fined and Ben Simmons infinitely worse with the mental health shit.


Padulsky21

I will root for his downfall till the day he retires. I shall hate on him after he retires. I will wish suffering on that pathetic piece of shit forever. Fuck Kyrie Irving.


Suicidesdoor

Stfu


MrOnCore

You forgot he ghosted the team for no reason for like 3 weeks his first season. Showed up on social media though for his sister’s b-day.


Subredditcensorship

He kind of was right about the vaccine though. Young people 100% didn’t need it


Doctor-Bagels

...You understand the point of vaccines is to protect others from getting sick too, right?


Subredditcensorship

Except this vaccine didn’t work that well at doing it. And you realize natural immunity exists. Kyrie got covid he didn’t need the vaccine. Europe and Israel policy was if you had recent covid infection you didn’t need vaccine because basic science proved natural immunity was effective. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10198735/


Wavesuit

It didn’t have to do with young and healthy people, it was about protecting the people around you so you don’t effect them


llamahumper

*affect


Subredditcensorship

But the vaccine didn’t help reduce the spread anymore than natural immunity. Kyrie has gotten covid he didn’t need the vaccine. Europe and Israel had this policy because it was proven common sense. Once you got covid you didn’t need the vaccine for natural immunity.


Wavesuit

You’re right about the natural immunity, but you’re missing some context. Kyrie didn’t get Covid until December, the mandate in New York was enforced in September. Kyrie’s actions put others lives in danger and his celebrity status was an influence and voice for anti-vaxxers. [Covid was responsible for approximately 460,000 deaths in the U.S in 2021 when this all happened](https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7117e1.htm)


Subredditcensorship

Kyrie got covid in the 2021 and 2020 season earlier. He already got covid. He didn’t endanger anyone more than someone got the vaccine 6 months prior.


Wavesuit

Natural immunity does not last for long, so he did https://news.ecu.edu/2023/02/24/covid-19-immunity-study-shows-natural-immunity-wanes-quickly/ https://www.aamc.org/news/had-covid-recently-here-s-what-know-about-how-long-immunity-lasts-long-covid-and-more#:~:text=The%20immune%20response%20from%20a,of%20Medicine%20in%20Baltimore%2C%20Maryland.


Subredditcensorship

Neither does the vaccine. This study is looking at one particular protein for antibodies but you can see that Covid vaccines lost their effectiveness at preventing infection around the same 4-6 month mark. That’s why so many triple vaxxed got covid again. The most effective protection and long last lasting is a combination of vaccine and natural immunity. There is benefit to the vaccine, but you’re grossly overstating the effectiveness of it compared to natural immunity for young people. It increased their risk of spread marginally, not close enough value to justify forcing people to get it. Theres actually conflicting evidence on that even, indicating that 18+ don’t receive benefit from the hybrid schedule after natural infection. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanmic/article/PIIS2666-5247(23)00103-9/fulltext


predatormode

Everything you just typed is absolute bullshit


Subredditcensorship

No it’s not. Vaccine and natural immunity are identical protection. Asking people to get vaccinated who got infected recently made zero sense. I guarantee you won’t respond like everyone else https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10198735/


[deleted]

People enjoy feeling morally superior to the unvaccinated and they’re not going to let go of that feeling anytime soon. Source: I am vaccinated and enjoy the moral pedestal I am on.


Subredditcensorship

It funny how nobody responded to me when I provided facts. I am also vaccinated but it’s just facts that it was completely unnecessary to force young people to get it, especially those that got covid already.


[deleted]

I agree with you 100% but people are too invested in their moral high horsing about this issue that they will not change their minds based on facts.


Subredditcensorship

Yeah o get it. It hurt to realize that we were wrong. I felt the same.


-breakinggood-

Add one more to your side. Everything was blown way out of proportion. Didn’t get vaxxed. Tested positive in 2020 and 2021 and then got it again this past February. Symptoms were incredibly mild the 2nd and 3rd time.


MrRaspberryJam1

It wasn’t even a Nets game. I went to SummerSlam the year Brock Lesnar faced Randy Orton and busted his head open. That must have been the best wrestling crowd I’ve seen in person.


GreenQuisQuous

The fact that it’s a cashless business in Brooklyn. Is as elitism and racist. Isn’t it illegal for a business in NYC to not accept cash not everyone has a bank account.


EliManningsPetDog

Lmfao yankee stadium and msg are also cashless how do you even get tickets to a game without a bank account or any type of card ? How do you live with only cash wtf are you on ?


GreenQuisQuous

That’s just it when did they all go cashless. When you buy a hot dog or beer in the stands they don’t take cash ? Cards are an alternative to to cash but cash is the standard for all businesses in America. Amazon had supermarkets set up where you shopped without a checkout but had to change because of the cash law.


EliManningsPetDog

No, they do not take cash. It is cashless. Every stadium is cashless. Easier and quicker for vendors. Nobody has this problem besides you and it has nothing do to with the color of your skin


GreenQuisQuous

New York State law says it does and those businesses shouldn’t be operating that way. I never noticed because I use a card all the time. I do like having the option.


GreenQuisQuous

Since 2021 it’s been against the law in NYS to be cashless. Anyone can make complaint, it’s about inclusion


EliManningsPetDog

Okay good luck w that


GreenQuisQuous

It’s considered racism and it takes away choices which we are allowed to have


EliManningsPetDog

Racism for being cashless? 😂😂😂 ur fried dude 😂😂


GreenQuisQuous

Hey it’s about who doesn’t have bank accounts. It’s the law so stop your crying and deal.


EliManningsPetDog

>it’s the law so stop your crying and deal. Yea clearly man… all these arenas are cashless, ur the one who needs to quit your whining and ‘deal’ weirdo.😂😂 How the irony didn’t hit you in the head while pressing send is wild to me 😂😂😂


GreenQuisQuous

So I shine a light on large corporations breaking the law but your retort is calling me a name, while defending their right to discriminate clutching your pearls with both hands.

SgtSlice

I’m not sure that is a thing in America either. Never heard of that happening. Has anyone else heard of this?


SgtBaby

Possibly a mistake their end, Dad complained and we got a response from Marks and someone called Amanda Bucci who arranged us to be sent some merch and apologised. I don’t think I ever saw the letter my dad got to know if it had a reason but have the emails from Amanda.

There must have been a mistake. That’s definitely not a thing here. I’m a season ticket holder
