I don't know about that. I would have KILLED to have a Tatum here with Kyrie his first go round, let alone Tatum, Brown, Hayward and Horford.

Man, It was so emotional to watch Kyrie doing the handshakes with our boys. Brought back so many memories. Them feels! :(

Having said that, its good we got that game off as soon as possible so that we both could move on. Especially Kyrie imo. I hope Kyrie does well individually. As pissed as I was with the timing of his trade request, I will never be able to hate the kid or wish ill on him.

But, like others have said, this is going to be a big reality check for him. LeBron being such a fantastic leader and the most complete player to play the game ensured Kyrie played to his strengths without worrying about other aspects like leadership and playmaking. Last season, Kyrie had almost 1.5 more FGAs per game than LeBron did. If Kyrie played with his idol Kobe Bryant, that would have never happened. The Mamba Mentality is all well and good but in real life basketball, its pointless because teams win the Championships. Not "Mamba Mentality".

Like the saying goes, "You don't know what you've got, until its gone!". Same will happen with Kyrie. By the time he realizes that, it will be too late. Shame!

He can go to hell.

I just...don't want to dislike him, but I do.

Oh, that is fucking gold!

"Kyrie, where's LeBron?"

"Suck my dick!"

Dude is so salty lmao.

I'm guessing he retires after his contract is up.

He -could- be going the Dennis Scott career path if he's not careful...

I was thinking Marbury.

The one thing I'll give credit to Marbury for was his shoes.

I felt that was actually a very cool thing to do, making them cheap enough so young kids could afford them.

Kyrie I don't know if he has that sort of thing in him. He's convinced he's Kobe Bryant or something.

Bostons main rotation has a rookie and 2 2nd year players and only 4 guys who have played in Stevens system ( two of which are the 2nd year players and a third who is already injured and missed a game.).

Boston also has started 3 different lineups in 3 games.

I don't think you can really get a feel of this team or Irving's impact until about 20 games into the season. Especially 2 games removed from losing your big free agent acquisition Gordon Hayward.

Anyone surprised by Irving behavior off the court hasn't been paying attention the past 5 years.
