Is Kyrie a superstar? (poll)

[CelticsElite]

Been surprised at the people saying he's not a superstar and mad at the trade even though we got rid of uncertain assets and players and we got a certain surefire top 10-15 player with potential for more greatness. Id consider kyrie a superstar from what he's achieved

Bonafide!

Top 5 in the league

1. Lebron
1. Durant
1. Leonard
2. Curry
2. Irving

3. RW
3. Harden

I think the results would have been different  have been different if you had done the poll before Danny traded for him, ha ha.

It obviously depends upon what your definition of superstar is. If there are around five superstars in the league, obviously not. If there are 15 to 20, then yes.

No doubt about it.  But it just means that more people would have been wrong before (hating on Irving, not recognizing his talent).

He’s not a surefire top 15 player. I have (in no particular order)

Lebron
Kawhi
Durant
Giannis
PG13
Curry
Westbrook
Harden
CP3
Wall
Butler
Davis
Cousins
Towns

All above him. That’s 14 players. So for the 15th spot I think he’s fighting with Lillard, who I think are really similar players. But that’s not even mentioning Derozan, Hayward, Griffin, and Gobert who I could potentially see someone taking over Kyrie.

Edit: Add in Klay and Draymond who are guys you could potentially argue for over Kyrie.

[BostonClamCrowdah]

Well who's the best PG?

Because Kyrie has outplayed Steph in the finals 3 years in a row

Lol at bigs being about guards. They don't have the same impact

Also lol at putting jimmy butler ahead of him

You should watch Kyrie play defense and then come back and tell me bigs like Anthony Davis, and 2 way stars like Jimmy Butler shouldn’t be ahead of him.

I like how you mention defense but you have harden, towns, curry, and cp3 on your list

Before the trade, I thought Hayward was the best player on our team. Post trade, I think Irving edges out Hayward for that 'honor.'

Does that mean Irving is a superstar? I think the question is pretty subjective, but I will go with yes, as I am a Cs fan and want to believe we have the best team possible 

[Moranis]

as Roy says this depends on what you are calling a superstar, and reminds me of my thread awhile back about superstar v. franchise player.  he is a superstar, he is not a franchise player.

[Roy H.]

Because Kyrie has outplayed Steph in the finals 3 years in a row

Are you counting the one Finals game he played in 2015?

Anyway, better PGs are Steph, Westbrook and Harden (a PG last season at least). Then it gets debatable, with IT in that debate.

[ashanm10]

Just wait till he plays this season on a team where he can shine better!

The fact you guys have him in top 20 players just goes to show the potential he has at 25 years of age

P.S. no one mentioned IT so surely he's better then xD
