Kyrie Irving

[Randolphkeys]

You know what gets me psyched? Shumpert and Kyrie have watched Delly move the ball without over dribbling for the past month. They know Blatt's vision better now than they ever understood it while playing last year because they have seen it.

A great improv jazz musician is so much better when they have an understanding of the rythm section. Kyrie and Shump can be more effective breaking off the play in the right moment, because they know how the play can get easy buckets when it's run straight forward.

This is going to be fun!

Kyrie will be back on his double nickel night - against Portland Trail Blazers on the 8th. Count on it. I really wish there was a place I can bet on this because I would put a whole heap of money on it.

Great, kyrie can dribble..

Curry puts up no effort and his points are with1.5times as much. kyrie has to slow the game and momentum to get the less frequent3 point play an exert more energy

You’re acting like Kyrie doesn’t also happen to be one of the best 3pt shooters in the game today.

I'm acting like he's a career.390, doesn't take 11 a game, and needs separation to hit them.

One of the greatest in the league today is great but it's not the best of all time, which curry is in regards to threes. and it doesn't matter if you're in his face. a lot of kyrie s are spot up. curry is unguadable. just as kyrie, but curry's offense is almost entirely predicated on threes, which build moment and require zero effort.

Btw Steph has consistently shown he's a two way player and a plus defensively. "Making him
work"is a fun idea, but he already does it. And Fuck if you don'tg think he makes you work back. do you guys remember that Delly was literally hospitalized?

Well damn, its a good thing he's better at getting separation than just about anyone who's played the game...EVER

I miss this guy, can't wait until he shows up Curry on Christmas

Great analogy.

You don't think that's a tad too soon?

Or to nail the point, Steph dribbles as much as he needs to in order to create separation to get his shot off or get to the rim. Making the game look easy is the ultimate skill.

As great a player that LeBron has been, he's rarely even done that. We've always had to wonder if defenses pack the paint, will his jumper fall? And if his jumper falls, and he can drive, and he gets manhandled ... will the refs blow their whistle? His teams end up wrapped around him so tightly he usually has to produce for them to win.

A bad game for Steph this season was needing 31 shots to score 34 points against Brooklyn - he basically played at the same scoring efficiency as his teammates.

We'll just have to see if Steph can keep playing at this ridiculous level, but at least we're getting close to the point Kyrie can get back on track with his development curve and toss his hat back in the ring.

One thing to consider is that Kyrie's style of play forces Curry to expend a great deal of energy to guard him, which then affects Curry on the offensive end.

You could say that Curry has to work anyway, but few players require as much energy to guard as does Irving. Game 1 last year showed what happens when they were both comparatively healthy.

Delly ran out of gas because he didn't have a backup. This year we should three legitimate point guards to run Curry's dick into the dirt.

Who knows? Maybe he's the guy who will get hospitalized this year.

That place is my inbox. I will send you an address where you can send me heaps of money.

Mo can never see a minute against curry.

As far as kyrie making him work, curry doesn't need to guard him. And if kyrie and curry are both in, based on usage and the fact that kyrie would be fighting through several illegal screens every possession to ensure Steph doesn't get a foot of space, I say Steph is more exhausting

I'm holding my ground firm. The W's aren't making it out of the West this year. We haven't even passed the trade deadline yet, and there are a LOT of good teams in the West who would be monsters come playoff time.
