Kyrie Irving was one star who was always under scrutiny since the beginning of the 2021-22 season. Given the range and diversity of the criticism, Irving could not do much in the postseason with the Brooklyn Nets as they ever clean swept by the in-form, raging Boston Celtics. After which the entire blame was poured on the shoulders Kevin Durant, Irving and coach Steve Nash.

Moreover, former veterans turned analysts including Charles Barkley went onto hilariously troll Kevin Durant, Nets to make sur that the team and its marquee players face immense consequences for such humiliating loss. 

Now, with Kyrie Irving and media never seeing eye-to-eye, it seemed like the 2016 NBA Champ had enough as he launched an epic social media rant on irresponsible media criticism and journalism, in particular.

According to the latest tweet of Kyrie Irving, he stated, “When I see my name or my brothers/sisters’ names getting spun through the media, I refer to all my research about who they are. Their job is to control public perception, all while profiting off discussing, discrediting, and disrespecting people’s lives for entertainment.”

He further added, “When you become free mentally and spiritually, there is not much this twisted/Racist society can surprise you with. My ancestors left behind all of the wisdom and truth for their agenda to be exposed. When you know exactly who they are, they can’t hide from their filth. 

“A lot of these media corporations make their money by degrading Black/African/Indigenous community heroes. They thrive off of it, and then sell it back to us by having a hand selected person or group of people spark controversy about them for the world to see.” 

Be it LeBron James or Kevin Durant or Kyrie Irving, these highly-paid and potential face of the league have huge expectations upon their shoulders season after season.
