IT's play making ability was more beneficial to Boston than anything Kyrie will add.

Nah. IT took over games but that made the rest of the team shoot cold. During the second half and the playoffs when IT was out, people like Jaylen really stepped up and showed scoring ability. Now we got Tatum and I think he's going to play a lot more than Jaylen did his rookie year. Adding Hayward gives us a legit threat. Kyrie played with LeBron.....so he knows he has to pass and make plays. In Brad Stevens offense I think Kyrie will shine. Possible MVP next year when he beats LBJ in the east finals. :smugdraper:

IT is a great player and top 25 imo but kryie is a special talent and I'd rank him top 5/10. I appreciate and thank IT for what he did and his sacrifices for the team but I think Kyrie elevates us to the top tier.

Kyrie, Gordon, Tatum, Morris >>>>>>>> IT, Bradley, Kelly, Crowder

I agree with initial (long term win easy) but the latter is ludicrous. The Cavs relied heavily on kyrie.

The Cavs still have an idiot at head coach. It's going to be interesting watching Lebron and co find chemistry


He has no legit consisten 1A option


JR is spotty
IT4 can be shut down easily
Drose?

Shump?

:bryan:

Nah at the bolded



But the chemistry part is the major factor....Coach Lue in his make or break moment.

Honestly, I was alright with Rose backing up Kyrie but Rose playing backup to IT. fukk that. Rose is a better player imo. IT was just in a better situation and the refs were on his dikk.

Yall stay focused on IT but Boston really gave LeBron a 6'8, +defender who shot 40% from 3 that he's been looking for since The Return.

:wow::wow::wow::wow:
This. Pacers sent PG to the west but the Cavs traded within conference to their top contender it was almost disrespectfully saying you can have that little overemotional point guard you still cant beat us in the east finals

With the way defensive switching is in the league breh....IT won't have too....he'll be hidden breh and D Rose is there too
Who on the warriors death lineup is he gonna guard. Theyre gonna run pick and roll with curry and kd and you have to switch otherwise steph gets a wide open 3. If you rotate you have klay in the corner abd iggy and green can make plays. Crowder is a good grab. But thomas cant play against gs late
