[@justincolon5628]

The only time Mr. 4th Quarter was ever nervous

[@stepback7143]

Justin Colon no one calls him that, that's Isaiah Thomas

[@davidmendoza3128]

+Stepback King Really???

[@BLUETHUNDER12349]

really

[@drainetetsu3878]

Stepback King before Isaiah became the king of the 4th...there was a Kyrie and Dame

[@jasinistrefi8428]

Justin Colon L thats IT4

[@Locker146]

It's kinda sad that he can't even take in the moment. I mean the second his name is called, he's got cameras and mics shoved in his face and all these people telling him what to do...

[@Pete762]

Yea so sad that he just became a multi millionaire Danm

[@davidrobuck5404]

We need more all access NBA videos like this. So cool to see what players actually go through with the media etc.

[@barnyardian22]

He wasn't talking to Kyrie because he had to listen to the broadcast for his queue to start interviewing.

[@QLDdontget13v13]

Same here lol I hate public speaking. I could barely getting through aural presentaions in highschool without stumbling over my words haha.

yeah but if you actually became an nba player you would probably gain confidence

wow cleveland picks the best picks except anthony bennet

[@axwburner]

jim johnston you have no idea just how valuable Tristan Thompson is. Just because he doesn't score much doesn't make him a bad player. His offensive rebounding is always such a huge momentum and energy boost to the cavs. his presence alone makes then better.

[@greekfreak4492]

man look at the play offs he was beasting and hes gonna do it again this year, those offensive rebounds everytime hes a very good player to have in your team

[@gaetan6124]

Dusty Bones Dion is averaging 15 points.....

[@donmike2810]

You people are cluless. TT is one of the few centers that can defend gaurds like curry at the perimeter. Hes very vauable and not a box score guy. You actually have to watch the game to see the value.

[@ezmoney1114]

Top 5 Prodigy #4-3NeverForget he cannot guard curry tf😂😂

[@jio699]

Imagine the joy to be said "Alright, You did it" after all that hard work and sweat you put into the game knowing you achieved your dreams.

[@devantejackson6065]

Irving hasn't disappointed the NBA. He's already one of the most elite Point Guards in the league, by far. He's achieved more in his short, young career then some have in a lifetime. Him and Anthony will compliment each others' games perfectly.

[@g.o.a.t8333]

DeVante Jackson Are you talking about Anthony Bennett?Because that nigga a bust.

[@overlordedgaming3594]

From those nervous beginnings to the moment he won the Cavaliers a championship last season with that clutch 3 pointer. You have done yourself proud Kyrie, huge respect top you.

[@DubsAndBulls]

some players are nervous when they enter the draft because they think they won't be drafted 1st overall

[@babywipes114]

Dubs #30 And Bulls #23 obviously

[@ThatPersianGuy23]

I hope you guys post more of these videos, give a sick inside look for fans on what happens on draft night.

100% illuminati lmao

[@zagorec92]

my thoughts exactly :) I like this rebuilding process Cleveland does with Irving, Waiters, Thompson (great talent but needs to work hard in future years) and even Zeller who can be a big support from bench. And if Varejao stays injury free this season, I expect them in playoffs...i think for now they only have playoff potential, but in 3-4 years if the team core stays together and with good picks and trades they can be title contenders definitely

[@JacoblCanada]

im happy this made the front page..i always wanted to know what someone looked like when they were nervous

[@rscapefreak]

@PlayerQ16 because there is probably going to be a lockout in the NBA meaning no basketball season for a few months and that announcer was David Stern the Commissioner of the NBA. The same thing happened this year at the NFL Draft when Roger Goddell the NFL commissioner came to speak.
