Science: Kyrie Irving’s Absurdity is a Reality for the Sports World
Marks stated via CBS Sports that a decision was made several months ago around what was best for our team. “Continuity was what was best for the team at this point.” We all recognize that continuity is what was best for the team over the past week.

Irving has been playing in 18 road games since then. He averages 25.9 points per game and 5.4 assists per match as the Nets try to build chemistry.

The NBA commissioner Adam Silver called Irving to be vaccinated on the opening night of the 2021-2022 seasons, imploring Irving for the sake of his family and himself.
Then, four months later, Silver did a complete 180 and called out the hypocrisy of New York City’s vaccine mandate that prohibits Irving’s participation in Brooklyn’s home games at Barclays Center but allows visiting unvaccinated players to compete.
