What the fukk?
Ainge wouldn't use the assets on a big or a Butler/George, but he'll do it for
a fukking PG
Irving is not some random PG..
Kyrie is a such a high-caliber player those just don't come into the league very often. He co-decided the NBA Finals when the Cavs won and impacted that series hugely. He's the best finisher at the rim as a PG in the league bar-none and he can shoot very well when it really matters and isn't afraid of big moments, he actually wants them. If Ainge should've ever used a pick it's now because what Kyrie has over Butler and George, he has proven he can win at the highest level - they haven't, they've shown the potential to do so hopefully for them and their teams one day - but Kyrie can do this now. Can he do it without LeBron.. as long as the Warriors are this stacked, it's going to be extremely hard - but you could do a lot worse than having Kyrie as your star, and yes having Butler or George as your star -as great as they are and can be- is worse than having Irving running the show, at least at this point.
