Kyrie Irving

[Lionheart]

If I don't think he will ever get his own shoe. But more so his own model (Cavs colored). Kind of like how Blake Griffin has his own Hyperdunks, Westbrook/Rondo have their own Hyperfuses, etc. If he signed with Reebok or some lower company, he would definitely get his own model.

I think the same, Nike has only been concentrating on 3 folks with their own signature shoes so far - Kobe, LeBron, and Durant. Maybe an MVP-type season with a lot of hype around Kyrie will push Nike to produce one.

Maybe if he gets signed by Jordan Brand (Nike Sub.) I definitely see him getting his own model, not the best looking shoes (except for the ones MJ actually wore) but Jordan Brand puts out GREAT performance pairs.

WHEN he wins MVP, I'm sure he'll get his own shoe. WHEN.

Nah man, Deron Williams is his ceiling

Is your obsession with Kyrie/Lin a fucking joke or something? My god you are so butthurt about the whole thing. Lin is a bigger story in a bigger market. Deal with it or else you are gonna die of a heart attack soon if you let things like this get to you.

Don't forget TO's. If Kyrie was in the situation Lin was in at the start of "Linsanity" (with Melo and Amare out), he would have straight DOMINATED. I watch every Cavs game and close to every Knicks game, Kyrie is so much more skilled in almost every way.

[trapalizer]

don't think anyone ever would compare Lin and Kyrie. However, marketing wise, Linsanity is for a reason.

Kyrie has to be close to getting Curry's 50-40-85 rookie season..

don't know if it'll be valid in a lockout shorten season.. The kid is a stud nuff said

The condensed season makes his numbers even more impressive, imo. He is being asked to play five games in the next seven days... Hell, seasoned veterans are struggling with this crazy turn-around.

Also, not sure what Curry you are referring to... Stephen didn't get 50-40-85. He was 46-44-86.

Dell Curry? Eddie?

Met Kyrie tonight at the game in Philly. What a nice guy! He took a picture with me and signed my jersey. I told him I went to the draft to see him get drafted and he said, "Wow, thank you!".

I also met his dad who was sitting right near our section. I spoke with him and told him what a respectful, kind young man he raised and how happy Cleveland is to have him on our team. He was genuinely thankful and said it meant a lot to him to hear that about his son. I said, "Well, you did a great job with Kyrie and I wanted you to know we notice". He took a picture a with me and then put out his hand and said it was a pleasure meeting me. I see where Kyrie gets his manners, his dad was very gracious.

Congratulations on wearing a non-Philly jersey to a game in Philly and surviving.

And really nice you could share our appreciation with his Dad.

I second this post! Especially the part about wearing a non Philly jersey. That's a rough place to be a visiting fan
Props to you Cavsgirl!

So glad we have a talented young kid with a good father figure! Kyrie really has his head on level. Hope he isn't getting frustrated with the lack of talent around him. He looked really bummed the last 2 blowouts....

Thanks! There were a few Cavs shirts there, not too many, but at least I wasn't the only one.

I'm hoping if his dad knows how much we appreciate Kyrie he'll put the bug in his ear to not bolt from Cleveland when he has the chance.

Hasn't played well in a few games. See if Scott can try to get him going at home next game.
Combination of more minutes with Sessions gone, slow withering away of talent (AV/Gibson hurt, Sessions moved), and better competition/tougher schedule seem to be taking a toll
