The Nets star Kyrie Irving, despite having a wonderful performance against the Indiana Pacers, did not make an appearance to the media. The Nets front office did not allow Irving to appear for a post-game interview with reporters and this may end up costing the team.

Kyrie Irving has been under media scrutiny for sharing a link to a documentary on Twitter a few days ago. The documentary is described as quite controversial due to the information it gives out.

The documentary is based on a book with the same title. And the fact that Irving was seen backing up the documentary, did not sit well with fans around the NBA.

Brooklyn Nets owner Joe Tsai and the front office both chimed in on Irving’s recent comments on the documentary. Irving hasn’t backed out from being outspoken and voicing his opinions on the things he feels are right or wrong.
