Curry is not better in isolation and doesn't have a better handle.

Kyrie is the best 1 on 1 player in the league, no screen for the switch, he's just going at whoever is on him. Only 30% of Kyrie's shots are assisted regular season or playoffs, for Curry that number was 52% during the season and 41% for the playoffs.

Better than Dame but he ain't a better PG than Wall, Steph, CP3, and Russ.



And the same kats kissing Kryie's ass right now, would of been same dudes shytting on him for still having his team in the lottery. The whole perception of him changed because of the LeBron stimulus package.

Underrated? He's one of the most loved players, he's one of the most marketable players has his own sneaker line with Nike and classic Uncle Drew Pepsi commercials. :dahell:

Kyrie gets buckets, he's the best isolation player in the game but he's not a top 10 player. He doesn't impact the game in many ways other than scoring. He's actually overrated by casual fans who want to downplay LeBron or love the aesthetic of his game. I'd put him as a 16-20 player and probably a top 5ish PG.

No one can finish at the rim better than Kryie. I don't know why it took people this long to realize this.

Kyrie is the flashiest finisher, he has multiple ways of contorting his body, playing the glass, a variety of finishes he got that from his godfather Rod Strickland. Kyrie is a NY playground baller by pedigree.

I wouldn't say nobody can finish at the rim better than Kyrie. Because his own teammate LeBron is a tank that finishes at a near 80% clip at the rim the G.O.A.T. slasher, and you have other guys in the league like KD and Giannis that just don't miss around the rim. Those guys are much bigger and can above and below the rim.

Nah, them other dudes have superior athleticism to help them finish, Kyrie does not. And this isn't by accident, he worked at this. Read the ESPN article. Kyrie's pops is the architect. I don't think Kyrie would of had the self motivation to be an NBA player without his pops.
