Will Kyrie Irving ever be as good as Dwyane Wade was during his prime?

Discuss.

[Marchesk]

Already better than the Hawks 5.

No. :oldlol: Dwyane Wade is not only better at him at most everything, but he's a BETTER POINT GUARD TOO. Wade literally does everything better at a much higher level except shooting. Wade at his best was the best two way guard in the league. Kyrie is garbage defensively. A rookie Wade is better defensively than Kyrie will ever be. Wade at his peak was good-great at every facet of the game. Kyrie is a great scorer and bad to average everywhere else. He hasn't shown that he can be good-great at most of these other facets of the game either.

Nope, and frankly it's not close. Wade was a superstar. He was right in the mix with Lebron and Kobe during some of their strongest years.

Kyrie isn't that caliber of player.

[Spurs m8]

He just had the game of his career, he'll never do it again, calm down you 10 year old fgts

There's a small chance he surpass him offensively. Wade was a shitty jump-shooter for a star. Irving is a great one.

He's not coming close to Wade defensively though.

If this thread was made 4 hours ago I would have said no, but now after Kyrie's amazing performance I'm still saying no.

I think you mean purely as an individual scorer.


As an overall offensive player Wade > Irving.

[Cold soul]

Nope no way Wade was several tiers higher as a player.

[BasedTom]

better at shooting, sure

everything else, no
