1. Full disclosure: I had never heard of Brandon Robinson until Monday night when I saw a jaw-dropping video on Twitter. Robinson is the lead NBA analyst for Bally Sports, which we don’t have here in New York. And so I was unfamiliar with Robinson and his work.
Robinson may be the nicest guy in the world and may normally do excellent work. However, he needs to seriously rethink his approach to the recent Kyrie Irving controversy.
Over the weekend, the Nets star tweeted a link to a film that was filled with antisemitic tropes. He then defended his promotion of the film in a heated exchange with ESPN’s Nick Friedell in which Irving came off terribly. Shortly afterward, he deleted the tweet in question.
