Brooklyn Nets’ Kyrie Irving is nothing short of an NBA champion. He is a 7-time all-star and an Olympic gold medalist. He is a Nets star. His records are an impressive feat, to say the least. However, his consistency has been questionable in recent seasons. Kyrie Irving has been a mystery to both his fans and his opposition teams.

According to reports, Irving has missed more than 300 games in his career and on most occasions, it wasn’t due to injuries or emergencies. It was his personal decision not to play these games.

Fans knew that Irving had the skills and could be a terrific player. They were debating if he would show up for more than 25 games to be a worthy contender for the MVP. Other people sarcastically put their impossible dreams and wishful thinking.

“In order to win games, he actually needs to play games,” said a fan. Others chimed in and agreed that Irving has a lot of potential. But he chose not to maximize on it for reasons that are his own.
