Nets Reportedly Already Experiencing Issues With Kyrie Irving Including 'Mood Swings'
Everything is going great for Kyrie Irving now that he's back living in his hometown of West Orange, N.J. and playing for the Brooklyn Nets. Well, that's what we all thought at least.
With Irving across the Holland Tunnel, the Nets are 1-2 on the year and haven't quite had the start many were hoping for. To make matters worse, it looks like there are already concerns growing between front office members and their new superstar guard.
Kyrie Irving’s "mood swings" are an "unspoken concern that makes Brooklyn officials queasy."

Nets sources say an episode happened on their trip to China, leaving the team confused, per Jackie MacMullan pic.twitter.com/Yu0xd8JRNI
Excuse me? According to NBA insider Jackie MacMullan, Brooklyn officials are concerned with Irving's apparent mood swings. In addition, there was also an incident with Irving in China, prior to the start of the regular season, which raised some eyebrows.
While Irving may be one of the better players in the league, and has an NBA Finals title to his name, he's been no stranger to having troubles with teammates throughout his career. There's the infamous beef with LeBron James, plus things didn't go over swimmingly for him as a leader in Boston either.
"People did not like playing with Kyrie, they did not like being around Kyrie. Jaylen Brown on IG put: I would rather walk, than ride with bad company. ... Be careful what you ask for [Kyrie]." — @ShannonSharpe pic.twitter.com/C9CEGDx3Mk
