We've gotta stop putting weight on these lists and rankings.

I don't. I know Kyrie is at least a top 20 player right now. Ijs to have him outside the top 25 is ridiculous. There's no way to justify or rationalize that ranking...at all.

“I’m passing to LeBron and I’m running a pick-and-roll with K-Love and he’s picking and popping,” Irving said. “Me, Tristan (Thompson], Dion [Waiters] and Andy [Varejao] have a great feel for one another, but there are a lot more new pieces we have to get used to.”

James made a point of calling the Cavs “Kyrie’s show,” something Irving seemed to appreciate.

“I think he tried to put in perspective that I’m the point guard of this team, just have to get us into our offense and lead the defense, continue to be myself,” Irving said. “I don’t think he could’ve said it any better.”​

Their writers and credibility are considered lower than dog crap for a reason. Opinion pieces with little to no insight and zero factual foundation for their posts. The sooner we stop posting BR, the sooner we can stop talking about it.

For what it's worth, though, even the SI player rankings are skewed - way too much stock gets put into track record (i.e. Duncan the 5th best player in the league... Yikes.)

Waiters didn't even crack their top 100. Don't worry, Kirilenko came in at 85th sporting a 5 ppg clip.

Takeaway - writers suck at being impartial.
