His defense makes Parker look like Bruce Bowen
Exactly.
Westbrook rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
historic season for him, wish he were on the Spurs.............
perhaps someday
Either that or a smaller version of Kobe.
Lol how people are blinded by stat padders. Irving, Westbrook, cousins, Davis are all a bunch of losers. These players think that by taking over the ball andscore a lot means that you help their teams win, but don't have the basketball OQ to space the floor for their teammate, take advantage of mistakes of the opposition or play any defense.
point guards have really fallen off... it's a SF league.
You mean Gilbert Arenas.![]()
I'm not sure how we can call Irving a loser when he has the ability to win games with his skills, including a game/series/ le winning shot in a Finals Game 7. I don't disagree with your overall point; we can say he plays a losing style of basketball perhaps, but he isn't a loser.
Neither of these two are true PGs since they are shoot first types. Kyrie has phenomenal handles and is a fantastic shooter, but he's not a better PG than Steph. J-Kidd was better than either of them as a PG because he knew how to run the team and was a smart mother er on the court. Steph cannot control pace, Kyrie doesn't have great court vision. Both have handles and Steph obviously blows Kyrie our of the water in pure shooting precision. Neither of them could get a so-so team to the playoffs, as we saw with Kyrie in the weak ass East while Lebron was in South Beach. Neither plays great defense but both have the tools to do so.
Nah dog, that's the coaching system, front office. That's what they want, merchandise sales and ticket sales. They talk about how they love the "beautiful game" then spend all preseason playing iso ball. You put either of those guys in the Spurs system and see what happens. Their numbers would drop but their efficiency would sky rocket, and they'd be happier most likely.
lol wut? If anything its more of a scoring front guy PG driven league than ever before...
Fair point. Cave without lebron is, at best, a first round out.
I bet if Kyrie was the best player on a team, their ceiling would be the same as a Wall-led team or a Lillard-led team or a Kemba-led team. Just look at the Cavs stats when LeBron is off the floor and Kyrie is on his own, they're horrible. At best, Kyrie is on the same tier as Wall, Lillard, and Kemba. Clearly below the likes of Curry, Westbrook, Paul, and Harden. He's just being overrated because he's in the perfect position as a clutch, aggressive scorer alongside LeBron.
I'm not pumping up Kyrie as much as I'm saying I'm not impressed by Wall.
Could those guys have played like Kyrie in the Finals? I'm not so sure.
is it? the three best players are all SF.
you know you're overrated when people say you're clutch as a mean to elevate you tbh
Being a Pure PG can only take you so far unless you can take over the game & dominate in big moments like Isiah Thomas.
