While Kyrie Irving continues to experience a situation as ubiquitous as it is unique on the side of Brooklyn, a certain LeBron James has entered the dance. And the King goes there cash, without taking gloves, to the rescue of his former teammate…
This time, LeBron James seen enough. If he and Kyrie Irving have a rather fresh relationship since the breakup in Cleveland 5 years ago, the King has publicly come to the rescue of his former friend. The reason ? The unfair treatment, according to the Akron native, reserved for the Nets point guard because of his non-vaccination. And in recent days, the tension has risen a notch.
While the mayor of New York chose to blow on the embers by provoking Irving, the latter was present this Sunday evening at the Barclays Center in the first row, in street clothes, as there is the right. Because for several days, Kyrie has the right to be where he wants in the Nets room (corridors, stands, locker room, bar…) except on the ground. An aberration ? That’s what LeBron James thinks, who loudly let it be known.
LeBron busts the rule on Kyrie and supports him cash

Twittos: “Kyrie has the right to watch Duke play on courtside and see his own Nets team alone, but he can’t play himself. It’s ridiculous on every level, there’s no common sense.
LeBron: “FACTS FACTS FACTS! It literally makes NO SENSE!! As they say, if common sense was so good, we would all have it. Isn’t it ????????♂️????????♂️????????♂️????????♂️ #FreeKyrie
The King’s words and the hashtag he affixed to them led to multiple, very diverse reactions. Some have validated the speech of the Lakers star, while others like journalist Micah Adams wanted to put things in perspective:
The fact that we’re on the other side of a catastrophic pandemic is because people chose to get vaccinated.
If everyone made the same choice as Kyrie, we’d still be in the worst of it.
There is nothing to #FreeKyrie from except living with the consequences of his own decision.

The fact that we are seeing the end of a catastrophic pandemic stems from the fact that people have chosen to be vaccinated.
If everyone had made the same choice as Kyrie, we would still be in the middle of a storm. There is no need to “free Kyrie” from anything, he just has to live with the consequences of his decision.
Will LeBron James’ voice be enough to get things moving? In any case, the King has said aloud what many think quietly, even if it means alienating certain pro-vax who believe that Kyrie Irving has been at fault from the start. Thorny…
