From the tones of the posts you would have thought the Celtics had lost and not actually had a wire to wire win leading by ten or more points most of the way.

I absolutely loved how Kyrie took it right to Olynyk, drew the foul and got the basket. Funny how much better this team is when they attack the basket.

He was lucky. Kyrie played too much hero ball in end and it almost cost us.

More like someone had to take over the game and Ky was the guy.

I couldn't figure out why CBS put Yabu and Semi in so early.  Still puzzling

Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I'm not exactly sure how NBA.com figures its "clutch" stats but Kyrie is 3rd in the league (behind Harden and Kemba) in total clutch points this season and has the 2nd best FG% (behind Kawhi) of everyone in the top 25 in clutch points scored.

So there's that.

So there's that.

Clutch stats: During the 4th quarter or overtime, with less than five minutes remaining, and neither team ahead by more than five points as defined by stat miner.

And yes, Kyrie is one the most efficient producers in that period. And no, some posters will never admit it.
