The King made his thoughts known about the Kyrie Irving situation when it comes to Uncle Drew’s vaccination status as far as New York is concerned. Taking to Twitter Sunday, LeBron quote tweeted basketball analyst and podcaster Cuffs The Legend to express how ridiculous he feels the whole thing is.
“Kyrie being allowed to chill court side and watch Duke play and then watch his own Nets team play but not being allowed to HOOP himself is absolutely ridiculous on all levels of common sense lol,” tweeted Cuffs.
To which LeBron replied, “FACTS FACTS FACTS!! It literally makes ABSOLUTELY ZERO SENSE!!! They say if common sense was common then we’d all have it. Ain’t that the truth.” Followed by the hashtag #FreeKyrie.
