Kyrie Irving Just Did The Unthinkable: Unfollowed LeBron James On Instagram

Remember how fun The Real Housewives of the NBA fued between Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant was last year? It was like watching a girl dump her boyfriend in the cafeteria and then start dating Hunter, the starting quarterback. The perfect mixture of vitriol, pettiness, and ego.

Well, buckle up because NBA fans everywhere are going to be Chinese water tortured with the spiteful happenings of two superstars breaking up for the next 12 months. After news broke that Kyrie doesn’t want to play in Bron Bron’s shadow, LBJ posted a true-to-form cryptic Snapchat vibing in his car to Meek Mill’s ‘Heavy Heart.’ Then there were reports of LeBron wanting to beat Kyrie’s ass,which LeBron kind-of-sort-of debunked in his weird social media presence way.

Kyrie has since dropped the hammer by allegedly unfollowing LeBron on Instagram, which in 2017 is the equivalent to taking a shit on their doorstep.

This is getting good.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
