Kyrie is one of the most misunderstood guys, I can tell he only wants people to be more aware of stuff that’s going on outside of basketball, ain’t nothing wrong with that. Respect

[@tolstoyed]

it’s wrong when he misinterprets what goes on

[@WayneBloomfield-wz6ry]

u are so right dude bloomz nz

[@mac88white]

Except stuff related to his new sponsor

[@MarioPeeps]

Stuff going on outside of basketball aka hating Jewish people?

[@issdreamy6412]

Couldn’t have been said better

[@eking5715]

His games made me pay attention to him. His journey keeps me interested in him.

[@skylive321]

The sensitivity Mike brought to this sit down is amazing. Disarms Ky and allows him to express himself in a genuine, honest, safe way. Great job all around by two men willing to have conversation.

[@emottioon]

Now, a couple of years later, I completely understand his decisions to not take the vaccine, to leave Brooklyn, etc.. the guy stands for what he believes in, makes decisions that are better for him and doesn’t give a sh*t about the social pressure. The guy is deeply misunderstood. Absolute respect on his name.

[@steviechampagne]

Agree or disagree, he has a strong INTEGRITY. We admire people who stick to their principles no matter if we like them or not. Kyrie is a great role model for ANYONE, not just kids or athletes. He’s an example of a human who has risen above the norm

[@johnpittman7095]

God bless Ky. We are going to need a whole lot more dudes like Ky who not only refuse to be apart of literally anyones collective haha He's so intentional with everything he does. I was the same way and thats why I wasnt touching that damn vaccine. Kyrie aint a surface level human being. He wants to know how his damn plumbing works i bet lolol

[@danieljovacon8626]

Kyrie coming into maturity shows how he has grown into thinking analytically and being firm in his beliefs.

[@AadityaBabar]

Kyrie deserves all the respect that likes of Lebron and KD get

[@LoveArt86]

Hope Mavs will win this season! 💪🔥

[@hasan-salam]

he deserves much more respect than them if we're being honest

[@gitworldyoungworld1127]

No man are women better than the next so respect 🫡 is equal 🟰 to being a human being

[@KaronDragonBallEdits]

Now i am 12 years old still Kyrie Irving will forever be my favorite player of all time and my inspiration forever and my drive to get to the NBA i appreciate him for being someone as a good father to his kids a great and humble person he is so misunderstood to many people hes a great basketball player he makes a major impact in my life for not just basketball but many other things for example his humbleness my dad always wants me to be as humble as i can be he wants to see me become better than him i love my father for all that hes done for me i thank Kyrie for everthing if Kyrie sees this message i hope he understands how much of an impact he is in my life and for that thank you Kyrie i appreciate everthing i wish to meet you in person one day that is my one wish before i become an adult

[@jotsent.3726]

Hope u make it to the nba lil bro!

[@traholgar]

@KaronDragonBallEdits young man, you have the perfect mindset for basketball or for life! keep respecting and bonding with your elders and be your own! many people never sound as mature as you in their whole life; so belive in yourself, cuz you are on the right path. all the best to you, we need level headed people like you, young man!

[@HLDN1989]

Delighted Kyrie is part of the Mavs. An exceptional player (elite shooting, playmaking, handles, basketball IQ) who will fit well with Luka. It's clear he has a lot of interests / passions off the court, which is absolutely fine as he always play's well on the court. Hopefully we see the best of him this season and the Mavs can compete at the highest level.

[@pavomrnarevic3900]

Say what you want about Kyrie I like him as an independent thinker

[@macabree5856]

Many do including myself so no need to start your comment with that cringy "say what you want.." saying

[@TheOneSpurs]

My GOAT .. normal human height of 6FT playing a game for giants.. not to mention the hate he gets..

[@learn.ai99]

Even kyrie is tall compared to world average height 5 foot 8

[@TheOneSpurs]

@@learn.ai99 haha true.. but people don't mention enough how much of an advantage it is being big in basketball .m

wow....this was eye opening.....an insight into kyrie's true, authentic self....legendary

[@cvillato99]

Awesome interview, let’s go Mavs !

[@alommiyaa49]

I don’t care what the media talk about him, I just love kyrie more than ever,follow kyrie for my life,he is my belief ❤❤

All the best Kai. Let's get a Mavs championship this year! #MFFL

Beautiful. Good luck Kyrie

Support Kyrie, 無論是球場內 or 球場外🥰👍

[@baddiesora]

he's my goat

[@iztokjanezic8327]

Thank you from sLOVEnia, dear 'Chief Hela' 💚When I first heard you and listened to confession during the time of Covid(same as N.Djoković), I wished that Luka had Kyrie as a teammate. This has come true, and I believe that Luka will be open to listening because he can learn a lot from you about life in general. Luka is a young man who has been fatherless around the world since he was 13.💫

[@user-ns7gc2yl3l]

Bro same the same year i wished for them to be teammates and just like that it happened i think luka teaches kyrie to be more efficient and jason kidd is not giving any special treatment this is going to make kyrie a Rock he will come through for the mavs countless times

[@muhammadfadlelseed7394]

Uncle Drew 🎉 The wizard, keep working.

[@fireball865]

❤ I'm a female of mixed ethnicity and close ancestral ties with the Potowatomi. Native Americans are very grounded in their sense of everything in nature, in family, in peace, in gratitude, in life, in The Great Spirit whom most call God. I sense that Kyrie's depth comes from his mother's connection to the indigenous people of this land we call America. As a basketball fan, Kai is my 1st or 2nd favorite player (tied with Luka:) But as a human being, Kyrie/"Chief Hela" is exemplary as a representative of not just his Sioux/Lakota tribe but of all tribes of the Native Americans/Indigenous people of whom most of us have some DNA. The explanation of AllEven Tribe was enlightening and I have a great heartfelt admiration for him. WE LOVE YOU, KAI...and thank you to the Mavs for giving him this interview to express who he is, freely, and for embracing him as a person, behind celebrity status, and supporting his philanthropy and the morality and equality he stands for. ❤

[@user-dj3rt5tr6v]

thank you for giving him a platform to speak!

[@jjorjojo]

He's always had a platform

[@byXOn418]

Kyrie the 🐐

[@MrZablon]

This is a really well done, tactfully open and vulnerable interview. Great job Mike, and as a life long Mavs fan hoping they can put together a magical season

[@Vvrroommm]

KYRIE CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE .. FANTASTIC BROTHA... WE RIDING WITH YOU (IN THE VOICE OF UMAR JOHNSON BORN 21 AUGUST SAME AS WILT "THE RECORD BOOK" CHAMBERLAIN)

[@spencer101]

I did not know Kyrie is part Indigenous. He's a citizen of the Sioux Tribe.

[@LoveArt86]

He is 1/4 native and other black. His mother was a half native american and half black i think.

[@graycie8512]

I love this interview Kyrie all the best, your one of the GOAT ❤

[@Sdfjffddji]

He deserve a championship and a mvp title and mvp all star game .

[@KaronDragonBallEdits]

Kyrie Irving is my favorite player of all time since i was six years old thats when i started playing basketball i love and idolize Kyrie and hope to make it to the NBA like he did one day

[@bigtrashgoat]

Don't idolize any man young one. I wanna see you make it to the NBA and motivate someone else one day jus pls don't idolize humans you are valuable

[@KaronDragonBallEdits]

Kyrie truly one of the Goats of the game what a brilliant basketball mind as well a incredible human being i cant wait to cop his Anta collection and i got a feeling him and luka are going to win a few chips☝🏾

[@marcchristiansampani3719]

Kyrie found his home to Mavs. Mavs let him be who he is. No pressures.

[@TheGreatMan1999]

his basketball skills is why i am a fan but his PERSONA is why i think hes the greatest

[@Bhamx2]

My inner child is jumping for excitement. I use to wish Kia would be a Maverick. Dreams do come true. I get him. I respect how he's using his platform. I get what he's saying.

Saying guys or girls when asked how he feels about being an idol is an easily missable part of this interview but says a lot about Kyrie being one of the true proponents of the WNBA
