Kyrie Admits He Plays Selfishly

[ArbitraryWater]

He was right. Lebron was the QB, the passer, the transition pusher... while Kyrie was the half court finisher, the scorer and crunchtime shooter. Irving's game was methodical break you down slow with supreme dribbling and shotmaking skill. LBJ's was to out athlete you, break down the defense with it, and either layup himself or dish to the open man once the defense had been scrambled. Kyrie doesn't have the athleticism to play "fast". He's quick, not fast. Guy blows his knee out playing slow and you want him to jack up his pace? lol... that's why ty lue sucked as a coach.

Dawg, how can u be this dumb? Lol

You gotta be Bolt to push the tempo? Lmao

Well, yes. He’s the best half court isolation scorer in the league along side Kevin Durant. He was taking the big shots LeBron was too frightened to take.

Kyrie is supremely talented as an ISO scorer and that's about it. He's not a good leader. He's not a good defender. He doesn't do a good job of getting others involved unless he's out to prove that he can.

He's basically a super talented cancer.

Maybe he turns it around, who knows. But the trend still looks bad.

Word. Him and KD are going to be a disaster as teammates.

I mean Kyrie was right tbh.

The bigger picture, high IQ stuff WAS #23‘s job. Lue was asking Kyrie to do something above his capability level. A coach has to know the limitations of his personnel.

Kyrie was just bein real. It wasnt fair to ask him to be that guy, when he’s not.

He is a point guard. STFU!

He is a point guard. STFU!

Only listed as one. But he is really a shooting guard in a point guard's body. And a ball-hogging shooting guard at that. About as useful as a 6'6 center.
He couldn't run an offense out of a wet paper bag.

His career high in assists is 6.9 per game.
It's a joke when compared to other score-first point guards like Curry (career high apg: 8.5) and Derrick Rose (7.9)
Nikola Jokic has two apg seasons that are higher than Kyrie's career high.

[Mr. Woke]

LeBron was the point guard at that point in time.

Kyrie has my respect.
