Kyrie is one of the most skilled players in the league, but why is his scoring low compared to other elite pgs? We know he

He's trying to get Brown, Tatum, Hayward etc more involved, so they can get back to playing at their expected levels. He doesn't want to hijack the offense and is doing his part to play PG. Some of his teammates though don't seem to be particularly bought in and/or are shitting the bed. The pressure of all of these guys' individual shortcomings are naturally falling on Kyrie's head and he's having a tough time of handling it while also doing things the "right way".

Because for him to fit well with the rest of the talent he needs to be more of a set-up guy. Horford, Tatum, Brown, Hayward and Morris should all be scoring if the Celtics are going to maximize their potential and that kind of balance would be hard to achieve if Irving is averaging 28. He hasn't shown t consistently in the NBA but Irving has the ability to set up teammates. He can save the scoring for the clutch. Team has been struggling to integrate Irving's talent all year but if they are going to be a better version of the team they were last season like they should be it won't be by being carried by any one player,

What is troubling is i'm not sure the Celtics really found their identity et. For sure they are a solid defensive unit but the offense is quite puzzling...Seems like guys are afraid to take shots, not wanting to break the balance between team scoring and individual scoring. There have been a lot of strange posturing from the Celtics this season.

To be honest, maybe havig one or two less talented players on the wing would help firmly set the rotation and give guys a clear view on their role. That's why it may be time to cash in on a true superstar
