I think that's the most annoying part about all of his critics. He's enroute to being a 3-time All-Star at the most crowded position in the league and could still be a senior in college.
I don't understand the hate.
1. People thought he was a Mike Conley type nikka because they read idiotic scouting reports from nbadraft net. Nothing wrong will Conley, except that Kyrie plays nothing like him and he has aspects to his game that Conley just don't have in the toolbox.
2. Nikkas don't like that he single-handedly ended the Next Evolution in Points Guards hype by showing us that elite skills will beat elite athleticism every time. Rose, Russ and Wall was supposed to be the shyt big thing, physically powerful, supremely athletic PGs, and Kyrie just waltz in the league and put up the best rookie season for a PG since Chris Paul, whose skill-based game was supposedly becoming obsolete. And then Steph took it up a notch and started dominating with his shooting and improved handle, that really ended shyt. But it took Steph a few years to blossom. Kyrie came in at 19 and was at all-star level. He took a lotta nikka shine, Wall in particular, and people just can't let it go.
3. He went to Duke. They mad.
