Remember Brandon Roy? Guy is killing it as head coach at Nathan Hale HS in Seattle. I guess the only won 3 games last year. They're 23-0 this year and recently beat Oak Hill. And I can't find a picture of BRoy swooner. And I'll control myself not to go off on a jag about the CIA having a statue of Hale at their HQ.

not so sure about that. saw him going on about how he's aware of the "scientific" "facts", but he has his opinions maaannn, why should that matter to anyone? he doesn't want to talk about it.

but if that's the case, it'd be great if he'd just make his ****ing point already. pretty dumb if he wants people to put words in his mouth in order to suss out whatever "brilliant" point he's trying to make. you have everyone's attention, just say it already.

seems way more likely there is no point, and he just doesn't want to defend his moranic opinions.

Apparently Kyrie is just a massive, balls out conspiracy theorist

https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comment...es_and_doesnt/

Quote:

Here are some positions Kyrie took during his appearance on Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye's Road Trippin' podcast.

The moon landing was fake. Says the boot prints on the moon don't match Neil Armstrong's boots in "the museum."
There are extraterrestrial beings in the universe.
Dinosaurs did not exist.
The earth is flat.
The education system is designed to lie to us.
NASA is lying about the rover missions to Mars and that all of the data about space they provide for us is doctored to feed us a narrative.
The people who make alien movies are not designing their aliens out of thin air. He thinks they are basing it on something they have seen.
Believes he is on a journey to become a complete human being who has complete freedom of thought.
The JFK assassination had something to do with him signing an order to take out the global bank cartel.
Bob Marley and MLK were "taken out" for preaching togetherness.
"They" are creating separation in race and class to control power in the world.
Believes he has a far bigger purpose and cause to his life than basketball.
Listens to audiobooks while taking naps.
Believes the way we travel the world proves the globe is not round.

Observations: After listening to the podcast, I don't buy that this is an elaborate troll or marketing for the Uncle Drew movie. Kyrie sounds ardent in his beliefs. He touches on a LOT of conspiracy theories and says some bat **** crazy stuff. It doesn't reach offensive levels, but this can go from a weird/quirky revelation to something far worse very quickly if someone were to press him on stuff like 9/11 and Sandy Hook and whether he thinks those were real or not.

Perhaps the most surprising thing about this whole thing is that the podcast was willingly published by the Cavaliers. I'm surprised they would let this stuff come up voluntarily.

think my fav is that if you're making a movie about aliens they'll take you out to Area 51 to show you what they look like, so it's like totes accurate

and didn't Bob Marley die of lung cancer or something from smoking way too damn much? lol

crazy thing is how they've been able to keep wraps on these numerous vast conspiracies

Dunno what all the hoopla is about this, he's just trying to build hipster cred.

Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye having a podcast is a far bigger story to me.

this guy believes in mermaids btw.

Also Dean went to Duke and he just wrote a post about some white guy being the best prospect of the last 35 years and said he compared favorably to LeBron as a prospect. I got that as the biggest conspiracy theory of them all.

Hes not trolling at all. Theirs tons of people led by youtube scientist who think the earth is flat.

I have a buddy at home whos a massive conspiracy theorist. He started believing in the 911 conspiracy and went into believing everything is a conspiracy. He thinks all sports are rigged by some number code which is interesting because now athletes are saying they believe the same stuff as him. Flat eathers will most likely say Irving is on some kind of "psyop" to lead us "sheeple" into some direction that makes since in his mind to keep his conspiracys true.
