Is Kyrie the greatest third best player on an NBA team in history?

[Rigby.]

It’s just like that TNT pregame broad cast for game 2. Everybody definition of an “option” is different. Some people in the camp that it’s the best player, the one with the most clout in the locker room, touches the ball the most or simply the one scoring the most points

Drummond was the third option in reality on LA during a good stretch, but Schroder was that on paper.

He’s had as much of an impact on the nets as harden or KD.

Kinda disrespectful to call him a 3rd option considering he played more games than both kd and harden plus had a career season with 50/40/90 while averaging 27.

Very disrespectful .

It’s sad to even have to suggest this. This nikka has the talent of a number 1. He should be Dame east. Just goes to show you mentality is everything...

Well he shouldn't be teaming up with more talented players if he wants to be viewed as the #1 guy. I don't think he cares though.

So is he a better player than Harden and KD though?

KYRIE GOT HURT GM 1
IN 2015...

KYRIE WASNT ON THE TEAM
IN 2018...

THEY ONLY FACED OFF IN 2 FINALS.

KYRIE SCORED MORE PTS
AND SHOT A HIGHER PERCENTAGE
FROM THE FIELD, 3P & FT IN BOTH FINALS.

KD REALLY SAVED THEM nikkaS
FROM BEING 1 & DONE.

​

kyrie did not outplay steph in that second finals
