@C C, I didn't have too much time to go way back in order for you to understand, because you sound "new" to this... You're evaluating Kyrie based on this one series; I'm evaluating him every since he been in the league AND how he severed ties with both LeBron and with Boston. To me, even though Kyrie can score & sauce-em-up with the very best of them (EVERY SINCE HE BEEN IN THE LEAGUE), you're fooling yourself (and other people are fooling themselves) if you believe that Kyrie is a guy who can LEAD A TEAM TO GREAT PLAYOFF SUCCESS. I mean Johnson97 is correct in his assertion on this thread, and all true basketball fans that paid attention KNOW that Kyrie isn't really that serious about winning championships, especially once he broke away from LeBron. You don't do that after winning with one of the greatest players in history... If anything, for his NBA wins success, he left Cleveland too soon. He needed to grow up a bit more (but what u gonna tell a man who any team will give guaranteed money to?) NOW he wants to talk about how his situation might have been a distraction, blah blah blah... Get out of here! And all that MISMANAGEMENT that happened this year, the Nets gave him "full-command" over his situation to come & go as he please.... and look at the results??? He mismanaged, the Nets mismanaged, KD don't want to lose a basketball friend, so he won't challenge Kyrie publicly, and Steve Nash himself is gonna have to come off the bench to play PG next year in order to give this emotionally-unstable team a chance!

Kyrie’s body can’t hold up a whole Season,just like Kawhi Leonard.

[@angrybird2107]

Who blamed Westbrook or AD for not making the playoffs? The blame was on a 37 year old Lebron who has already given the lakers a championship ring.. when it comes to KD, his teammates get attacked

Kyrie was exposed. He wanted no part of Marcus Smart. So much for all that skill…

[@kyreegarrett1669]

You mean how he dropped 39 on marcus smart then they adjusted defensively to put more help on kd and kyrie?? That marcus smart ?

I’m not sure we watching the same game lol multiple switches and doubles on kyrie and kd. Yeah marcus smart really clamped him 😭

@@kyreegarrett1669 I guess we did. Of course there were switches. But when Marcus Smart guarded him, he either passed or took a bad shot that usually missed.

I hope the next cba screws these type of players so bad. Players like Kyrie need to understand that one you sign a contract with a team, you are their PROPERTY. He needs to sit up, dribble and say yes masta to the coach

[@gonzalorojo6815]

If I was the Nets I would just rebuild at this point, trade both. - KD has proved over and over again that he's not that guy, dude is a good scorer but he's a horrible leader and can't lead a team to a chip. - Kyrie is just not worth the trouble. He's never available and brings so many issues. - Not to mention that none of them have that drive to win, they just don't care, specially Kyrie I hope this and last year's playoffs serve to show who was the actual best player and leader in GSW. KD needed Steph and Klay, not the other way around.
