Where are all those loud Kyrie doubters now?
Seriously.
They're going to insist that they are right until he wins the Celtics a championship. Stubborn.
I think they’re going to insist that Kyrie has yet to show he’s as good as IT, let alone better. Then throw in the BRK pick, Crowder, Zizic.
IT had 31 games of 30+ points last season. Kyrie has one. He’s an exciting player, and a very good one, but that doesn’t mean we got good value.
Roy, you're clearly just being stubborn based on preconceived notions. Kyrie isn't being asked to score as much on this as Isaiah was last year. That said, two of the very things you questioned and harped on, defense and passing, Irving has shown to be way better than Thomas was. Agree?
I don't understand how this debate continues, add in Irving's MUCH better defense, and passing and it's no contest. Defense is an important factor in any sport.
Some just can't tolerate being proven wrong.
All I know is we have a team that has the best record in the NBA all while staring two 20-year-olds.
The potential of this team is getting scary.
