I would say Kyrie is better now but Wall has the potential to be better.

Now wether Wall will ever reach hi potential is an entirely different question.

That is true but I think Bron would concede ball-handling duties to Wall because of how effective of a point guard he is. In the beginning of the season he did let Kyrie be the primary ball handler but that didn't turn out well because Kyrie isn't a passer. Bron has openly said last offseason that he was looking forward to being a wing player again.

LeBron wouldn't even concede ball handling duties to Wade, he's not doing it for Wall or anyone to be honest, and as good as Wall is he and LeBron are not a match.


LeBron says a lot of things that he doesn't actually mean, once his assist numbers started to look funny he took over the ball. As far as PGs go Kyrie is actually the second best partner for him right now, only Steph Curry would be a better pairing with him.

Kyrie is just the better scorer/shooter.

Wall is literally better at everything else-defense, passing, rebounding, and overall leadership.

John Wall would be a better fit with someone like Melo/PG than Bron

Wall wouldn't be able to play with LeBron, it takes a very specific type of PG to excel with LeBron, guys like Curry, Kyrie, Lillard and Tony Parker, scoring PGs that basically can play off the ball effectively are the only type of 1s that can work with Bron.

Thats why that Chris Paul/Clippers hype from last summer never made sense to me.

Unless LeBron was truly committed to being a PF.
