Stephen A Smith roasts both Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons for their issues as the Nets trail the series 0-3 to the Celtics

Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons, man. Both brilliant players in their own right, but both are also among those in the NBA who bring their own set of problems.
The former Celtics star missed most of this past regular season due to his decision to not take the Covid vaccine. And while every individual reserves the right to choose whether or not to take the shot, his decision clearly was one that caused problems in Brooklyn.
On the other hand, Ben Simmons’s spat with the Philadelphia 76ers during last season’s playoffs still plays fresh on fans’ minds. And we’re sure it’s fresh on Nets personnel’s minds as well.
With Brooklyn down 0-3 in their series against Boston, everyone has been talking about these two stars almost exclusively. And with all that happening, why should Stephen A Smith be left out of the party?
Recently, the man spoke on these very players. And well, let’s just say, his words weren’t exactly the nicest.
Let’s get into it, shall we?
