After the official statement from the Nets and the press conference held by GM Sean Marks, the point of view of the Brooklyn management is clear: Kyrie Irving remains out of the team until the performance that he manages to guarantee to the group is that of a partner player. time. Not accepting vaccination leads to this and the Nets don’t need ‘half-duty’ athletes.
The former Cavaliers and Celtics player in fact has no intention of getting vaccinated and for this Brooklyn has been forced in the past few hours to go hard, cutting off relations and thus trying to put Irving back against the wall. A story and a story that is missing, however, a piece: why did the All-Star of the Nets choose this wall against wall? Is it really a no-vax?

Listening to what is told by those close to him (since the person concerned does not speak to the press), Irving believes he is fighting for something that goes beyond basketball and the consequence (unwanted and unintentional) of his mission is in conflict with his career and with the sake of his franchise. According to what reported by The Athletic, Irving is not against vaccines, he is not a no-vax, but he has decided to fight for the demands brought forward by those people who have lost their jobs due to the impositions dictated by the administration of the vaccine.
It is a bigger battle than those he has to face on the court, a challenge to control that, according to him, he is making the company: “He wants to be the voice of those who are not listened to”, explain some sources close to him. An ideal fight, linked to principles in which Irving believes and for which he wants to make his sounding board available: losing money or popularity is not a problem for a player who, for some time, had shown the intention to be counter-current.
