This isn’t a shot at Kyrie so much as a criticism of the whole team.

IT had no quit in him. He had a chip on his shoulder and played without fear.  He was a warrior, literally sacrificing his body — and ultimately millions of dollars — to help this team advance.

IT isn’t really an NBA-level player any more, but if we could put his heart into 14 other guys, we’d still be playing right now.

IT4 has a heart of a champion

outside of the dummy "back up the brink trucks" comment

possessed true leadership

you come to appreciate more and more his numerous sacrifices at the basket to get to the line

He was killing it in Memphis before they shut all their players down too!

Bring him back DA! I thought he was toast - I was wrong
