I bring you my personal successor to LeBron James: Cleveland Tribute video mix. Plug in your headphones, switch to 720p, enjoy. Hope you like it.
Kyrie Irving: Overcome (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5xvqobdNVc)
Edit: This is an updated version that I never got to upload. A couple different scenes, better timing with the music and action.

Hey, a basketball mix that doesn't include some over played, overly loud and horribly compressed rap song!

I intend to never make a mix video with a hip-hop song ever. I stayed away from that with the LeBron James Tribute mix and almost ever single remark on it is they liked the music that went with the theme.

the genre of the song doesn't matter, as long as it fits with the video. My favorite Tim Duncan tribute uses a Devotchka song. In this case, the song fits nicely. I didn't get to see Kyrie play a lot this season but nice mix.

He's very crafty with the ball under the hoop.

Eh, since I'm not a fan of rap it can get quite a bit irritating. The main issue isn't the rap itself, it's the terrible remixes with watermarks combined with the fact that they're usually low quality (128 kbps) rips which makes it sound like crap. That and 95% of videos have absolutely no flow, just random highlights thrown in.
Since I didn't actually watch the video last time, I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with the video. I don't really ever watch video mixes (or at least haven't in a few years), but I really like this.

Thank you for taking the time to watch it.

To be totally honest when we drafted him I felt we should've drafted Williams slightly. I was 50/50 on it. Almost a year later, boy I'm glad we didn't draft Williams. I really like Kyrie's style of play. I hope once he gets better team-mates he can possible share the ball a bit more and not have to take so much of a scoring load.

I followed him closely at Duke because I'm a big ACC fan. I know he played in only a few games, but I just saw something about him. Definitely during the draft I can see why Cavs fans were 50/50 on who to choose first, but Kyrie fits in perfectly. I think if you put a few other pieces around him he will show everyone what he's all about. Top 5 PG very soon. I love this guys game. I watch Cavs games just to see him.

I watched him a few games in college. He looks decently impressive, I wasn't sure if it'd translate into the NBA though. It's really weird to see him do decently well in college, get hurt, come to the NBA then do outstanding compared to college.

For the record, I was never 50/50. I was 100-percent sure on Kyrie (Meticode can back that up). He was far and away the best player in the draft and I thought so very early on in the college season.
Problem is, people don't generally start paying attention to the college basketball season until it is 3/4 over and the tournament is approaching. By that time, Kyrie was injured and, even when he came back, he wasn't anywhere close to being healthy.
The Cavs fans that were paying attention to Kyrie early in the season had no reservations about who to take in the draft... Except PB.
But, you know how that goes.

a sports highlight mix and you are not using "remember the name" as background music

Last bump. And :lol REMEMBER THE NAME! I was sad when I made Kyrie in NBA 2K11. Irving wasn't in their vocabulary to say it. I'm like, "Seriously? Dr. Julius Irving? And you don't have Irving!?!?!"
