What about when you go 5-35 in game 7 of the NBA finals against the Celtics?
If Dallas wins a title will Kyrie be put on the Mt Rushmore of 1B/Robin players alongside Pippen…..?

Jerry West? West was still #1 on that '72 lakers squad.I literally put this in the Kyrie trade thread on Thursday and nikkas got in they feelings about it:
BREAKING: The Brooklyn Nets are trading Kyrie Irving to the Dallas Mavericks for Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith and picks
Trade worked out better than most thought, but it's really the trade deadline moves this year that pushed Dallas up a level... Most of yall on here were not only down on Ky, yall were down on Luka, let's not forget the narratives about him too. You mf's didnt see Dallas as a Final 4 team, and...
I'll be back later to elaborate but the idea that Kyrie is in the convo with other All-Time 2s, with another ring, has merit...
I think Kyrie is the perfect 1b for a ball dominant 1a.
Kyrie can play off the ball and dominate the offense when needed, players like Luka and Lebron need someone like that. Hell a prime James Harden would've had at least one ring with a Kyrie Irving riding shotgun.
Barring injury the Mavs are winning the ring this year. The synergy between Kyrie and Luka looks like a replay of him and Bron back in 2016

Parker was the best player on the 2014 Spurs. I've been saying this since then and I thought it was pretty clear because he was the best player on the '13 Spurs too...
Nah Wilt was regarded as their best player, I have to look it up but I once found an article that captured the sentiment of the time that said Wilt was the best player that year...

Funny because he’s now snake bitten with injuries around playoff time a couple of years in a row.
NAH GIANNIS DIRTY PLAY DID.

Sums it up. Wade is the anomaly that actually won a champ as the clear number 1, before LBJ arrived. And even when he arrived, almost won it as a number 1 with LeBron playing sidekick. I'd definitely say all of LeBron's championship "assistants" were more so co-pilots rather than Robins. With LeBron being the lead Pilot. That's the most accurate description I can give, without disrespecting bron or his teammates.

Clearly you don’t know what a 1B is.
Show me Pippen mirroring Jordan’s numbers in a Finals series.
.Whoever made that graphic conveniently left off rebounds because Bron had 16 of them as opposed to Kyrie's 3...
...and Bron's 3 steals
...and his 3 blocks

So you expect Kyrie to match Lebron in rebounds

Cool. What about the complete stat line

I expect you níggas to tell the complete story instead of quarter-truths, yesSo you expect Kyrie to match Lebron in rebounds
."Show me Pippen mirroring Jordan’s numbers in a Finals series."
Then gives a 1-game example that doesn't even tell the complete story of said game.

Look at Gasols numbers vs Kobe's for the duration of that post season run and series. If you have to cling to the inefficiency of Kobe in that game 7 as a "gotcha" as to why we should overrate Gasol's importance relative to Kobe's, then that's a losing argument. We could do these game to game statistical nitpicks for every NBA Finals going back to the 1950s. There was a clear distance between Kobe and his teammates during those 3yr Finals runs. Even counting the 2008 loss to Boston. Gasol played a very very solid and important role in the 2009 and 2010 titles. But that role was a very clear and undebatable sidekick/robin role.
