  1. dameplsrunfromgrind

    Bro basically bought his way out of a suspension

  2. Can’t wait for when Kyrie likes a tweet talking about how “bullshit” that donation and statement is in like two days

  3. smoltanboi

    weak. they should make him get circumcised on ESPN during a halftime show.

  4. so Kyrie’s dad and step mum took his cheque book to the ADL meeting lmao

    > In the statement, Irving says “I take responsibility” for the negative impact of his Instagram post. He also said “I do not believe everything said in the documentary was true or reflects my morals and principles.”

    > The statement from Irving does not include an apology.

    So Kyrie gets to spend half a million dollars to not be called an anti-Semite?

    Irving trying to buy his way out, but I bet he is doubling down on his views privately

  8. Droppin_DimesSP

    Money can get you out of anything, 🤡.

  9. tatumgoat

    still can’t just say he was wrong and apologize

    “I do not believe everything said in the documentary. That being said, that line about the Holocaust being fake was fire.”

  11. lilshawnyy420

    yes because $500,000 each will certainly make people forget about the shit he said! how generous!

    Great job Joe Tsai and Kyrie Irving!

    “I do not believe everything in the documentary was true..”

    Me thinks this won’t be the last we hear about this from Kyrie. His first IG Live will be historic.

    It’s not the money, Kyrie.

    Nice gesture, sure. But it’s not about the money.

  14. Kashmir33

    That’s great! I love how the Kyrie Irving quote sounds absolutely nothing like him whenever he goes on one of his *smart* tirades. 😂

  15. MyLadySansa

    The Nets & Kyrie curing hate one check at a time

  16. JackSteeleSidebottom

    Kanye said he woke up from a nap, turned on ESPN and learned Kyrie Irving was lobotomised by the Jew laser they shot at him from the moon.

  17. LivingDog9295

    I will still always hate Kyrie and the Nets until that anti Semitic fuck is out of the NBA

  18. CM--Cyberpunk

    Of course this bitch is trying to buy his way out of trouble. We all know this moron is gonna do something else idiotic in a week. Silver needs to suspend him indefinitely.

  19. Ironically, $499,000 will be spent to counter the highly antisemitic documentary Kyrie promoted to millions with his tweet.

  20. cooldudeman007

    Adam Silver dropped the fucking ball. Now he can say he gave half a milly and it all gets swept away without real accountability. I pay more proportionally for two weeks of prescriptions

  21. JohnnyFootballHero

    Weird, I don’t see an apology anywhere, just millionaires throwing their chequebook at a problem

  22. kobeshiddenson

    This is like something Vought would do in the boys

  23. halfdecenttakes

    Woah he paid a charity! Totally unprecedented move following controversy. Everything is all good now right?

    Gimme a fucking break.

  24. whatweshouldcallyou

    “Kyrie, we need you to make a donation to a Jewish orgnization.”

    “Yeah cool, ok. Black Hebrews or the Nation?”

  25. Why aren’t they going after Amazon for having the film on their platform???

  26. jaythaagod

    i’m not gonna lie this is kind of over doing it
