if it was lebron, then it definitely would’ve gained some traction but after last season it seems like kyrie is generally viewed as the “typical” (smart) dumb athlete…I don’t think we’ll see anything come of this much less something on the level of the kanye fiasco as some have alluded to…maybe SAS might dedicate a few seconds to it

i know this is slightly off topic and perhap a whataboutism
ima just say right now kanye and kyrie both a couple of clowns and i do not support them, I think Kyrie at least means well, Kanye is an a$$hole period.
but has it ever been addressed why they allowed Joe Tsai to become an NBA owner when his site was making (probably) millions off selling bootleg NBA jerseys? did Joe Tsai backpay those NBA players/teams the residuals for all those stolen IP they sold to make his billions?
I'll never understand how this man is held up in such esteem as such a smart businessman when he literally just opened an online store selling bootlegs that would get the average person selling the same fake jersey in the parking lot before the game arrested or at least a cease and desist because he's from a country with lax copyright laws.

This is what I struggle with.
For example, Jay-Z rapped:
You wanna know what's more important than throwin' away money at a strip club? Credit
You ever wonder why Jewish people own all the property in America?
This how they did it
Financial freedom my only hope
fukk livin' rich and dyin' broke
And they called this anti-Semitic.
Black people can’t point out what are features of getting wealth and relating that to the Jewish experience without there being something wrong with that.
You can’t try to uplift Black people by advising them of how to use their money by using a real world example of how Jewish people have done it to take care of themselves without being labeled anti-Semitic.
Somebody help me understand what I’m missing because I don’t get it.
Like there are real disparities, inequities, and power differentials and we can’t talk about it.

I can easily highlight another religion and institution as the power behind Trans-Atlantic slavery :
People right books and have alternative views on shyt. Happens. There's money out there to be made selling books.
This doesn't make me a scholar or give me the right to transmit my personal views to millions of my followers on social media, like Kyrie is doing.
Kyrie is nowhere near intelligent or nuanced enough to navigate through these topics but the sad thing is he thinks he is.
Man, you’re right. He should just shut up and dribble.

Black folks are descendants of West and Central Africans.
Our ancestors were likely Islamic or followers of African folk religions. That’s why throughout the diaspora you have voodoo, vudu, obeah, hoodoo, Santeria, etc. Those Abrahamic religious texts are set in the Middle East, North and East Africa, Mediterranean/Southern Europe. Those ain’t our folks.
Give it up it’s sad to see black folks still tackling with Abrahamic religions in 2022 and falling for all these hoaxes, cults, and bullshyt scholarship.

Weird some of y’all questioning Kyrie’s intelligence and flat out calling him dumb 
It’s usually white people who resort to attacking one’s intellect. And if you’re black doing the white man’s bidding, just admit you’re scared.
