Phil Mushnick has more than one good point. Kyrie Irving can go to hell with his anti-Semitic stupidity
If it weren't for double-standards, they'd have no standards at all.
How long would NBA commissioner Adam Silver wait to act if a white player publicly attacked blacks as literal devils? That player would be gone — good riddance — and nationally vilified before you could say John Bleepin’ Rocker.
It took until Thursday for Silver to express he was “disappointed” with Irving,” prior to the Nets suspending him for at least five game, and to say in a statement that he plans to soon meet with “Kyrie.”
“Disappointed” as opposed to incensed or livid?
The team eventually suspended him for a minimum of 5 games, and maybe indefinitely.
There are plenty of articles on what he tweeted, what he said, what the team/league said. But I like this straight-forward take on the double standard.
