View Full Version : Cavs: Kyrie Irving has absolutely atrocious shot selection

Wtf is going on with this guy so far this season? He seems to be going out of his way to chuck contested mid-range jumpers. He gets to the basket and finishes well enough, so I'm just not getting why he insists on chucking. Instead of taking what the defense is giving him, he just insists on shooting heavily contested mid-range J's. Somebody should remind him that he's not Kobe Bryant...

In other news, Bynum looked solid last night.

I see Irving as the next in the Arenas/Marbury/Baron Davis/Stevie Franchise mold of player, so it fits.

chucker with no d is basically what you never hope to have on your team. he is still young and has all the tools to be at least decent, but right now he is shit.

If you think about it, if he isn't scoring he's really a bottom-half PG in this league, tbh. He is starting to remind me of Steve Francis a little bit, tbh.

Who is Irving going to pass to on that team though? I can't believe how many great draft picks that team has fucked up so badly since 2011. Thompson, Waiters, Bennett are shooting 38% combined, with Thompson the high man at 43%. LOL all three of them were top 4 picks. How did LeBron ever take such a fucked up organization to 66 wins?

Because LeBron made his teammates better & he's great, what does Irving do besides take a high volume of shots?

He has plenty of talent. Bynum, Thompson, and Waiters are all solid. He just seems more interested in taking contested pull ups and face ups than setting up his teammates. Even his penetrations rarely end in an assist.

It's not all his fault though. Their offensive system, if they even have one, looks awful.

Thompson and Waiters are garbage, and Bynum has just started getting some meaningful minutes again.
