Kyrie Irving

This kid is just dialed in. Scores 33 points, without breaking a sweat. 15 shots, that's it.

He's putting the league on notice. He definitely doesn't play off LB, teams are watching him at all times, that's how devastating he is, even with LB on the floor.
 
Yeah, he def could've dropped 50+ again tonight if he felt like it. He's really amazing.
 
If he plays like this, Kevin can rest as much as he needs.
 
Kyrie is phenomenal! Only bad thing I can think of today was him missing 2 easy ones earlier in the game!

His defense was bad today, as well, but EVERYBODY'S defense was horrible. I don't know why Kyrie didn't get more shots up. He was hot.

Yeah everyone is basically bad on the D end i forgot how Kyrie was on D.

Theyre saving some of his heat for the Heat I bet. Or just simply avoiding overplaying him because shit happens way more often than we think.
 
I don't think he was THAT bad defensively. I know guys were scoring on him, but those weren't bad contest shots, he was getting up on guys for the most part. Maybe he had some break downs, I was in between making dinner and watching the game, so I wasn't watching every frame.

Orlando has some offensive fire power. We did not play great defensively, took them too lightly.

Orlando is on the verge of being that next surprise team though. If they hit on their lottery pick this summer, lookout for them.
 
Man this kid is so special. Unguardable right now.

I loved when he put up this "heat check" threes. Sucks that the one three pointer went in and out. But whatever, hope he keeps up his fantastic play.

And btw, he really deserves to be on an All NBA Team this season.

He has no chance making first team. He should make second though. But hell, that might be hard.

Russ, Harden, or Steph, two of those three are making first team, one is really going to get screwed out of first between those 3.

Chris Paul will make a strong case for second, almost forgot about him. Also Klay Thompson.

So Kyrie might not make it after all. Tough call. I personally think he should make it over Paul and Klay, call me bias, whatever. He definitely should be above Lowry, Lilliard, or Wall though.

Tbh, don't really care if he makes first, second or third.
Just want him to make one.

He's definitely making one. My prediction is this.

1.) Harden (should be Westbrook but won't be), Curry

2.) Westbrook, and probably Klay Thompson

3.) Kyrie and Paul

His only real competition is Jeff Teague. But Kyrie has soundly been better, and I don't think he'll get a nod over him.

Wall, Lilliard, and Lowry have no shot at all making it over Kyrie. That would be absurd if any other guard did.
 
IMO, whether he makes an All NBA Team or not this season is irrelevant.

Because this kid is going to do something remarkable in the Playoffs this season that will silence all his critics and cement him as a perennial top 10 player in the NBA.

In the words of a man far greater than myself: BOOK IT!
 
Windhorst says the league was buzzing after his San Antonio performance and predicts Kyrie will make All-NBA first team with LeBron.

There's no possible way. Curry, Harden, Lebron, Davis, and Marc Gasol are pretty much all locks.

2nd team will be: Westbrook, Thompson, Butler, Pau Gasol, Cousins

3rd team: Teague, Kyrie or Paul, Duncan or Green, Aldridge, Horford

It'll be close. Wouldnt surprise me is Kyrie didn't make it.
