While he is known for his prowess on the court, Kyrie is also known for his controversial behaviors which have burned quite a hole in his pockets. All thanks to his multiple fines, he has had to pay $17,651,271, over the years amounting to at least. However, there is another side to the ‘Ankletaker’ that fans might not be aware of.

It is common knowledge that fans have mixed feelings about Kyrie outside the court. Sometimes people tend to come down on him for the things he does or says. But Mark says that social media sometimes tends to project a person in a light that he is not, and Kyrie has unfortunately caught himself in the middle of this quite a number of times.?If anyone, Mark should know Kyrie the best, having spent enough time with him.
So we better believe when he says that Kyrie is the type of person who has a passion for deep conversations on different topics like human emotions. He cares for the plight of underprivileged people, and just whatever is going on in the world.
“Kyrie is the dude in college where whenever he came over to your room even if everybody’s drinking he wants to have a two-hour deep conversation,” Mark says on the Impaulsive podcast. But it looks like Kyrie might have to work on his timing because, according to Mark, he pulls up to the wrong time and place for his ‘conversations.’
Kyrie must be time-appropriate
Mark Cuban says that Kyrie should be able to read the room and gauge the appropriate time for his ‘deep conversations’ otherwise it just becomes awkward and out of place. He says, “which
is cool when you want to talk about deep deep s***. It’s awful when it’s like, ‘Kyrie, come on now, the game’s on,’ you know? And that’s just who he is, but I like him.”However, the two clearly share a close bond and Mark seems to enjoy Kyrie’s company.
