Kyrie Irving

[All4One1ForAll]

LeBron is not "FAR" more impactful than Kyrie. That's hyperbole and not at all surprising that the guy who once argued (extensively so) that Kyrie was a 'rich man's boobie gibson' would diminish him in that way. So, no, not a great post. It's a post that has a point that's worth exploring but exaggerated for effect.

Just to make it clear for everybody I'm not the guy who said that "Kyrie is a rich man's Boobie." That's a ridiculous statement.

I will say that I think Lebron is a lot more impactful than Kyrie. "Far" is very vague, so my idea of how much more impact Lebron has compared to Kyrie might be different than yours or it could be the same as yours. But I definitely think at this point it can't be said that their impacts are close and that's just a testament to how good Lebron is. It doesn't mean someone is saying Kyrie sucks or is overrated. I feel I have to keep restating this: he's probably a top 10 player. But Lebron will go down as a top 3 player of all time and he's still in his prime right now so I think a lot of you are diminishing just how good Lebron truly is.

Wrong. Dead wrong. Kyrie is amazing, but he cannot carry a team. LeBron can. That difference separates the two players by a FAR margin.

Dead wrong eh.. lol. Why don't we argue about what the word "far" really means. I'm arguing against the over the top hyperbole, not the sentiment. Of course LeBron is more valuable to this team. But those two need one another to succeed at this point in LeBron's career.

You seem so concerned with your internet reputation at all times. It's a bit odd.

Don't worry, not a single person that's been here a while attributed that phrase to you.

It's not about reputation. I just wanted to make that clear for the sake of argument. What's odd is people (like you in this case) always trying to start personal arguments with me, especially when it has nothing to do with the topic on hand... I'm just trying to debate here.

"I'm clearly the smartest person in the room because nobody agrees with me."

On topic, this team isn't contending without LeBron or Kyrie. Who cares about deciding who's more important, let alone how much more important.

They're both vital. This team can't go without either one, period. There's no way there aren't better things to talk about in this thread.

Sigh. You need to relax, bro. Seriously, just relax. Have you really not noticed that you are at the epicenter of nearly EVERY argument on here lately? You seriously think it's everyone else and not you? I've never even spoken to you before. Take a deep breath and count to 100 when you start to think that you and only you are being picked on, or fought with, or whatever it is you seem to consistently believe.

Don't pull this card with him....

You do this shit in every thread.. Just stop.. He's not trying to make anything personal.

Never said that everybody's out to get me or anything like that. Just saying next time actually respond to the points I made in my post. If you're not going to do that, and instead make a comment about something unrelated to the argument, then don't bother debating me. If I make a post with multiple points arguing my point and you just respond with a silly dismissal like that, I view that as childish because you really didn't even bother responding to what I said.

This is the Kyrie Irving thread and we were busy debating but it seems like you're trying to get me upset and get the thread off course.

It's strange how a lot of the Kyrie extremists are against Lebron. Do people not realize we have both of them? Kyrie is a top 10 player and Lebron is the best in the world. People here still hold a grudge against Lebron for some reason and they try to diminish how important he is to this team.

It reminds me of earlier in the year when people suggested that we would play better without Lebron...

Kyrie Irving and I have the same hobbies. Smoking weed, playing video games, and fucking bitches.

There we go, I just added more to the conversation than some other posters have in a month....

Holy mischaracterization of arguments and ad hominem attacks, Batman!

Wait, now I'm Batman? Okay, so let me get this straight. Now Lebron is Robin, Kyrie is Alfred, and I'm Batman. Who can Kevin Love be?

Have you any proof he loves these things?

I have proof he likes "fucking bitches":

Here's proof he enjoys video games:

No evidence he likes smoking weed though...
