The Kyrie Irving Brad Stevens Celtics marriage is a testy one so far

It's only been four games in a completely different system with completely different players. He had 4-5 game stretches last season when he didn't shoot great. It happens. The main thing is that he's playing within an offense, the one thing the coli told me he couldn't do.

:manny:

Dude's missing shots he normally makes. Not even slightly worried.

As Mike/Tommy mentioned on commentary, he hasn't played in an offense with this much movement/action. His playmaking has been great and the shots will absolutely start to fall.

i think with tonight included he's at 20ppg on 38%, Im just used to him going down firing like on the cavs lol but I hear yall, I know he will improve :ehh:

Guess he really is trying to change his game :ehh:

You'll see. You riding Kyrie nuts right now but one day, you'll think back and say damn, I was a fool, currency was right.
Nah, I can safely say I'm not going to say that. Of course, Kyrie is going to have his struggles without having a top-5 player next to him to shoulder the load, especially since Gordon is out injured for the rest of the season too. Most players playing on a different team, with different players and in a different system, with their co-offensive anchor out injured in the very first game would go through struggles as well.

But nah, you're wrong with pretty much everything you said.

Okay then. What's your projection of Kyrie's future?

Nah gravity only applies towards Stephen Curry. Even tho NBA legends acknowledge how much attention LeBron draws, Stephen is the only one with gravity

:mjgrin:
Yeah bro what these dudes don't understand is Curry gravity pull defenders towards the 3 point line allowing player to operate inside and and outside easier while LeBron gravity pulls defenders inside near the post allowing open 3s and 2s. Curry has a bigger gravity pull because a deadly 3 point shooter can pull people to 1 side but I'll take a LeBron drive to the basketball efficiency over a Curry 3 any day when it counts in the playoffs.
