Kyrie Irving is probably the most underrated player in the league right now

[Jplaya2023]

Kyrie is a very good isolation scorer. And his career high until this season was still only 22.5ppg.

It's just tough to rate a point guard highly when they don't distribute the ball very well and are below-average on defense.

Until the last game, Kyrie was shooting 39% for the playoffs and 27% from three. We're a bit too in the moment with this shyt.


I think he's correctly rated. In six seasons, he barely made 3rd-team All-NBA once. He's about the 16th-best player in the league or so.

ranking kyrie based on where he finishes at in all nba team is slanted against him unless your willing to tell me you would take green, rudy, jordan, derozan over him?

What's wrong with that?
Kemba is underrated breh.

So? Doesn't mean he's Kryie's equal. Kemba worked his ass to be a good player but Kyrie is the superior basketball talent.

If he is, it's not by much.

3 ball
Midrange
Finishing
Iso game
Handles

There's guys that have done all of these better obviously (with the exception of the handles), I'm talking about the complete package

Plus he has a post game as well.

Most complete offensive player since Kobe but he's a much better finisher, ball handler, and 3 pt shooter.

@42 Monks You hear this shyt.

 

[AldavisAlbundyAllah!]

If the media pushes Kyrie , it will expose lebron's "coming home" act.

It's a super team .

HES CLEARLY THE LEADER ON OFFENSE FOR THE CAVS

Lebron allows Kyrie to be great. Lebron keeps the Cavs in games with overall amazing play so Kyrie can focus on being a clutch scorer and that's exactly how it should be.

Kyrie could be Finals MVP this year if the Cavs can keep it close with GSW going into the 4th quarter.

Handles are MUCH better

Finishing at the rim is MUCH better.

Dame is not a great finisher at all.

Again, y'all are enamored with Kyrie's flash around the basket.

Dame: 256 of 430, 59.5% at rim
Kyrie: 257 of 432, 59.5% at rim

I agree with that, but dame gets buckets just like he does in the clutch. Dame is a crazy good offensive player.

Yet, LeBron leads the Cavs in scoring, assists, and was their best 4Q scorer and overall player this year in the regular season and so far in the post season.

 

[e001]

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.

@Sccit is legitimately slow.

Pay more attention breh.
Kemba had a great season this year.

Who is better?

NBA.com/Stats | Players Isolation


Highest eFG%, 2nd highest FG%, highest PPP, 4th in frequency, turns it over the least in isolation....

My eye test never fails me

It's a coincidence that these nerd stats were correct
