But let's look at an example in another sport, Antonio Brown in the NFL. He came with VERY BAD PR. He kept getting second, third, and fourth chances. It took him walking off the field in the middle of the game before NFL teams said no mas.

You're quite right. Irving has brought a trail of destruction everywhere he has been. He has screwed over every team he has played on and every teammate he has ever had. He has been a problem long before the vaccine refusal and the antisemitic posts. But as long as someone can play teams are gonna be willing to take a chance on a headache. The Brooklyn Nets have already shown they have zero backbone in dealing with his antics.

Unfortunately, I don't think his current actions are going to change anything. I hope I'm wrong.
