Nets owner Joe Tsai praises Kyrie Irving on Twitter

While the NBA world is freaking out that Kevin Durant has requested a trade from the Brooklyn Nets, team owner Joe Tsai tweeted some support for the talented Kyrie Irving.

Earlier this week Kevin Durant showed up for the premiere of his documentary NYC Point Gods, his media company Boardroom asked various New York legends, which NBA player could best survive on that hallowed blacktop?

Quite a few players said that Irving would thrive in the situation.

Tsai retweeted the video with the caption, “Truth.” This clearly shows that the Nets are working to improve their relations with Irving, after a tense season and offseason.

While reports surfaced that Irving is intending to return to Brooklyn and wants to play for the team next season.

The Brooklyn Nets are treading lightly as superstar Durant is still awaiting a trade, so the team has not been solidified for the upcoming season.
