?If There Were Tidbits About Hitler, About Holocaust?.?: Kyrie Irving?s Controversial Take Prompts Supportive Advice from Bulls Star

Kyrie Irving probably became one of the most hated athletes recently and the reason was apparent. His controversial post about a supposedly antisemitic movie garnered a massive amount of criticism from different sections of society. However, there were also a few of those who supported the Brooklyn Nets superstar and looked into his situation from a different perspective. At least that’s what former Chicago Bulls star Jay Williams did. The NBA player-turned-analyst recently gave his thoughts on the entire Kyrie Irving controversy.

In the latest episode of The Pivot Podcast, Jay Williams was asked what made him take such a risky stance on the Kyrie Irving matter. Williams replied that he could understand Irving’s purpose and intent behind his action. However, he did not agree with the way Irving chose to explain the purpose of his movie post. Williams further clarified that if it were him, he would have first asked the people commenting on the matter whether they had watched the entire video. A lot of people apparently made such comments based on just a few excerpts and incomplete information.

“If I were to advise Kyrie I would say, ‘Hey, when you go to the podium, right out the gate, if there was anything in that film that you disagree with, state that, real quick. If there were little tidbits about Hitler and, you know talking about the Holocaust never occurred, like, take care of that right away,'” said Williams.
