Kramnik has taken to making reckless and poorly grounded accusations of cheating, and Nakamura is his latest target. In my view it's just sad to see a genuine legend of the game reduced to behaving in this way.
The TL;DR version is that among Nakamura's approximately one billion blitz games online there is a run of 40 or so wins in a row against much weaker opposition, an event Kramnik deems to have very low probability. Nakamura's response that Kramnik has an Elo of 500 in mathematics sums it up. Even more embarrassing for Kramnik, before he deleted the original post, he was systematically removing all critical but sensible replies.
