> Irving was spending his time with a pretty small circle. He lived in a Cleveland high-rise with his best friend and all-purpose business manager, a high-school classmate with the portentous name of Alex Jones, and didn’t have many friends in the locker room. In March 2017, the Cavaliers got rid of a role player named Jordan McRae, whom Irving described as “one of the few people I hung out with.” Talking to Jefferson and Frye, he described a dream he had upon hearing the news: McRae entered his hotel room to say good-bye, but Irving couldn’t wake up to tell him he loved him.
> Jones had moved to Boston to live with him, and there was concern that the two were spending the dark Massachusetts winters isolated at home, bingeing YouTube. Someone who knew Irving at the time brought up the flat-Earth theory with him and Jones. “Alex is like, ‘I don’t know, man. We don’t know the Earth is round. Kyrie and I have been watching stuff,’” the source said. “Kyrie kept asking if we knew for sure that it was ‘constitutionally’ round.” The conclusion: “Oh, shit. They really believe that.” (To be fair to Irving, it’s never been entirely clear he does. He once gave an onstage apology to “all the science teachers … coming up to me like, ‘You know I’ve got to reteach my whole curriculum?!’”)
So in conclusion, a guy whose name just happens to be Alex Jones convinced Kyrie that the Earth is flat. Perfection.

“Constitutionally round” lmao
Yall ever seen a uniform cloud ceiling before?
Only for the clouds to appear to lower as you look towards the horizon.
BOOM. Visual proof of globe Earth.
I mean, has it been proven????
I used to think we lived in a Tv that was getting watched by someone else who was in a tv getting watched by someone else until the person watching was god!
HAS IT BEEN PROVEN WE ARENT INSIDE A DAMN SAMSUNG 100K SUPER SMART TV????
“Jones moved to Boston to live with him, and there was concern that the two were spending the dark Massachusetts winters isolated at home, bingeing YouTube.”
This is the new pasta.
Oh god here we go again
Would love it if someone asked him what “constitutional” means to him.
This sounds like a gay fanfic. These mfs were clearly on some shit😭
Nets fans like “cool. not my problem anymore”
👍 👍 👍
It’s the forgotten 34th amendment.
For the millionth time, Kyrie’s problem is that he’s a fuckwit that has deluded himself into believing he’s not a fuckwit.
IS IT SO HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE WORLD IS SHAPED LIKE A GLIZZY?!?!?!?
that’s nominative determinism if I’ve ever seen it, we should check in with David duke jr
Society: seems like you have a tenuous grasp on the English language in general
Kyrie (looking awkward)…. “Constitutionally”…
Flat earthers are the prime example of willful ignorance.
No it’s only federally round
I’m not one to instantly shut down conspiracy theories. Can see what some people think about several. But the flat earth conspiracy, however, is just fucking dumb. Like really
This sounds like Edward Norton’s character in the new Knives Out lol
i wish Kyrie just stick to being Uncle Drew instead of this Third Eye Kai
Why does this read like a fan-fiction lmfao
Electrical Infetterance
Kyrie is constitutionally fucking stupid.
Kyrie 🤝 boomers
Being radicalized by social media
Mr. Irving, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
My problem with flat earthers is that they don’t take the logic any further. Who would gain anything from the world being flat instead of round? What real, provable government or organization or company would get absolutely any benefit?
‘Constitutionally round’
Kyrie has always struck me as the same sort of insecure imbecile propagating themselves to be more intelligent by misusing multisyllabic words like Edward Nortons character in Glass Onion
Kyrie, you got hundreds of millions of dollars. Your occupation also gives you 2-3 months off.
Charter a plane. Sit in the cockpit with a compass. Have your boys with you.
Or stfu about it.
