Kyrie Irving says "BLACK KINGS BUILT THE LEAGUE," Kobe needs to be the new NBA logo

Former Celtics guard Kyrie Irving reignited the Kobe Bryant should be the NBA logo discussion with the above Instagram post this week. Kyrie used a mock-up created by Tyson Beck almost a year ago, who I assume was a big Kobe fan. Beck replied with a joke about how Kyrie cropped out his name (We feel your pain on that Tyson. Used to happen all the time with Celtics Life!) Kyrie responded that he appreciated Beck and I'm sure Tyson appreciated the appreciation.

Celebrities replied with support for Kyrie's post, while there were also complaints from non- celebs about Kyrie's "BLACK KINGS BUILT THE LEAGUE" all caps statement.
