[@jingqi9106]

I saw Kyrie in high school and Ky was different - his handles, ability to stop on a dime or change direction, his ability to shoot from 3 levels, and his ability to finish around the rim with english with either hand...he was doing all that back then. 💯🔥

[@0shie420]

and dunking 2, before his injury he was really dunkin

[@GOATanyama]

yes but he matured. back in the days he wanted to prove himself, he was younger, faster, etc... Now, he just do what has to be done to win, and sometime he just decides to dance for fun and show us he's still the best ball handler :)

[@ziadeddinhariady9381]

There are Three words to describe kyrie irving : 1. Skillfull 2. Entertaining 3. Humble

[@GreensForSale]

I Agree 💯

[@jesseshaw4495]

I agree

[@TA-ht4jo]

That's why it's a travesty that the NBA never included him in thier top 75 players.

[@shawn47240]

Also “Zero defense”

[@Virtusy]

我認為irving>Curry 多麼驚奇的表現！

[@MrTrueCaller619]

Kyrie doesn't actually approach with a plan, he simply watches the defender & counter, that's how i see him, that's genius .

[@jordansmith4758]

Iman Shumpert said that same thing. He doesn’t have a plan which is crazy! 😂

[@xFlow777]

for sure, he doesn't have a predefined set of moves that he does on you before he drives or shoots, so you never know when he's going to pull up or drive it can be after any move. James Harden for example, that guy is so predictable, 2 or 3 times between the legs and he's stepping back for a 3

[@xFlow777]

@@jordansmith4758 i know exactly what Iman means, i play soccer and i also dont have a plan when i dribble the ball, my moves depend on where the defender is and what he's doing. I totally understand what kyrie is like.

[@markislivingdeliberately]

It’s actually how a lot of elite soccer players play. Messi, the goat of soccer, does this a lot. He’ll let the ball roll at his feet without touching it waiting for the defender to make the first move then BOOM he’s gone based off what YOU decided to do. It’s magic

[@Nirru0305]

Ultra instinct

[@Guilherme12345678987]

As a Brazilian that my first ever nba game ever watched was that golden state x Cavs finals game 7. I tuned in to know about the buzz of curry and lebron , but dang . My fav player there was kyrie. This guy is just different . To me is like if messi played basketball. His skills are absolutely insane

[@potatopoison1130]

He's more like Neymar

@@vladikostek Neymar > Ronaldinho

[@markislivingdeliberately]

Great analogy. He plays like a great soccer player in that he will often let the defenders make the first move and the first mistake. Just dribble casually until they come in then you counter off what they do. To do this though the ball must be basically an extension of you.

[@EIStudent]

I'm from Cleveland. The year they won the finals I was instantly a fan. In the finals they kept talking about LeBron and I felt like they would not have won that finals without Kyrie. His game is insane!

[@shawn47240]

Take Lebron off the Cavs. They don’t even make the playoffs(let alone the finals) and instead hit the lottery. Take Kyrie off the Cavs. They still make the playoffs.

[@EIStudent]

@shawn47240 I'm not sure about them not making the playoffs without LeBron but my point was the Cavs could not have won the finals that year wo Kyrie. Don't get it twisted...I am not sh*ttin' on LeBron. LeBron was the star and Kyrie was a strong guest star.

[@bahriboy]

Yup

3 Words to Describe Kyrie : 1 : Talented 2 : Focused 3 : Intelligence

[@JonahGhost]

He's hands down my favorite to watch all-time.

[@chrisevans6293]

Kyrie is one of the greatest ever. Cheering for the Mavs to take it all this year. His game is so polished.

[@xiivinz2912]

Kyrie is different man

[@antonioedwards2698]

Kyrie is in ultra instinct mode. His body just reacts the right way to every defensive counter. It happens naturally that’s how In tune he is. Y’all best believe this man meditates before games

[@blueytho0154]

Playing the game itself is meditation for Kyrie. That’s why his game is so graceful. The further you are away from meditation - the more stiff & robotic your movements will be.💯

[@markislivingdeliberately]

It’s reaction based on what his defenders do. He pokes and prods and waits for YOU to cook yourself 😂😂 It’s a lot like how a player like Messi plays soccer. Often he won’t even touch the ball just do feints and wait for the defender to awkwardly step in then based off what the defender does he makes his move. All about getting your opponents weight going the wrong way or off balance. He’s playing the man across from him when everyone else is just focused on their own game. Crazy stuff.

[@truckatoot3857]

His humility is wat cements everything

[@iPavedTheWay]

Fav Kyrie moment is the dagger 3 over steph in game 7

[@Ty700037]

Magic was my favorite. When he retired Kobe took his place. When Kobe retired Kyrie took his place. I think maybe Ant-man is on deck.

[@PapersScenicWrld]

Said it best

[@My-by]

Michael Jeffery Jordan is the most skilled player to play this game! I’ve been watching from 1979 (Doctor J and the ice man George gervin) up to now! Jordan a 6’6” Guard new how to use his basketball IQ and skill set to beat you and there was nothing you could do about it!” Lots of players have skills” like Allen iverson or curly for the globetrotters but do they or did they have the skills to WIN?” When compared to Michael Jeffery Jordan the answer is NO!”😂
