Yeah this is wrong for so many reasons.
Why isn’t she calling out Kerr or pop?

Like they didn't know this was his swan song contract...
silly Lakers fans he went there for personal reasons /family /Hollywood etc
and then secondary to all that the chance to help a young Laker roster with the upside to be a great team reach heights they couldn't have or at minimum probably wouldn't have without his voice and example.Sure Magic put key vets around him to also help mold the young roster and have a chance to win now...but they are not a contender.
He's still the GOAT but only a fool would think he will remain the best player in the game for much longer.

So Kryrie gets lit up by Jamal Murray and throws the ball into the stands when the kid tries to go for 50 instead of dribbling out the clock. One, I get the sportsmanship angle, but I also can understand wanting 50 in a game. I wonder if Kryrie considered playing defense at any point while getting lit up? If he had, maybe Murray would not have been close enough to 50 to consider it.

I do not miss his garbage PNR defense at all.

Yeah, but I wonder if Butler may actually be a better fit for them.

Not sure I believe it . the part about Lebron not being given the straight.
But I guess it wouldn't surprise me this entire scenario has more to do with why Lebron left than Irving actually being gone, I mean if he is was being told one thing and 15 min later the exact opposite happens, it proves Gilbert was holding the threat of trading Irving over Lebron trying to get him to commit long term and when he still refused to do so, Gilbert gave Irving what he wanted buying into a lottery pick as the best case scenario return knowing without Lebrons commitment when Gilbert needed it the most he was gone anyway.

If Ainge had yet to put the Brooklyn pick on the table, and the next best offer was meh, I could see Gilbert grabbing it while it was there.
