    There are not too many players that I hate more than I hate Kyrie Irving. But finally somebody is digging into the numbers and realizing how bad the guy really is.

    The most morally-void player in the league. He is everything that is wrong with the nba.

    He couldn't hold James Harden's jock strap, or Westbrook's either, and the sad thing is, he don't care.

    This idiot right here. Stupid haters are a waste. Check the OP ethnicity, you know he's white.

    Your logic.

    White people ->Harden, Westbrook
    Non-white people -> Kyrie

    Hmm...

    I thought it was interesting that the caption said "is he a great point guard like Curry, Paul or Westbrook?" Would have liked to see Harden mentioned.

    How can you hate on a guy like Kyrie? He's fun to watch, he's clutch, and doesn't come off as one of those cocky star players.

    At least Kyrie can get into an all-star game.

    Where Mike Conley at?

    If what thinks he's terrible, then in real world terms that means he's a bonafide star.

    #1 PG I trust in the playoffs, especially to hit a big shot. Harden has to prove me wrong.

    The irony of this post is going to collide with the stupidity of the OP and open up a portal into Hell.....or Utah. Same difference.

    I can't consider him a PG, but I don't really care about the title. I think he is clearly a short SG who is insanely good at scoring and raises his game when the stakes are higher. He has had the benefit of having Lebron on his team which has given him time to develop as a PG, and he has shown slow improvement in that area, though it would be a disaster to hand over a team to him. I think as he gains more and more experience and watches Lebron, he will develop the PG skills.

    As far as whether he's a superstar player, I think he probably is. Not a top top tier one, but he's up there. I can see him replacing Curry on the Warriors and the Warriors would almost not skip a beat if Kyrie bought into the coaching/system. Almost.

    He won't win without LeBron. Irving + Love may not even get you into the playoffs. But Irving is a as good a closer when you need a shot with nothing on as you can get, and he can score. Top 10 scorer, easily. Top 10 player. Not to me.
