That 07 team was a better team.
How so?

All those guys were trash as fukk and not even worthy of a bench spot on other teams.

At least the 2010 team had some washed up all stars :huhldup:

And besides Lebron is a top 10 player of all time.

So to expect 19 yr old Kyrie to carry a team like Lebron did in 07 is fukkin retarded.
I never said I expected Kyrie to do anything. Don't know where you got this from.

All we've seen is what happens when CJ Miles and Earl Clark and Samardo Samuels are starting next to him...some world renowned scrubs.

What happened when Kyrie didn't play in the finals?

This is exactly why he's leaving. All about LeBron. And I ain't blaming Bron. But, if I just turned 25 and already got a ring and I'm putting up 25 and 6 seasons on 47/40/90 shooting and not making all-NBA teams because people chalk up my ENTIRE EXISTENCE to "Oh, he plays with LeBron"? I'd think about leaving, too.

When he seems people saying guys like Kyle Lowry, who's ass he's busts REPEATEDLY head to head (Oh, but Lowry play defense right...well, he ain't stopping Ky), and Lil Zeke ("Your lil ass getting 42 in an elimination game and you won't be putting 53 on me like you did to Wall") being called BETTER than him, with no hardware, less all-star teams...C'mon, man.

Kyrie's accepting the challenge. It's all about Bron. And y'all sure of that? Cool.

It's weird, Durant is p*ssy for not wanting to do it on his own but Kyrie does and he's crazy. When y'all gonna make up your minds? Isn't this what y'all want? A player who wants to be the man and lead a team on his own? Or is it just selective when we wanna shyt on someone.

I think a lot people forget how good Varajeo was

Larry Hughes was still good

Z was still good

we all get that.... but irving cant be the best player on a chamionship team, so if he wants to win titles hes eventually going to need to pair with some better than himself.

hes going to find its not easy being the man, and brons presence helped him a lot.

I agree, but I'm sure proving that mentality wrong is why he wants to do it, so let that man live his life lol.

At WORST, he'll retire as a NBA champion and one of the game's all time greatest scorers even if he doesn't get another ring. I think he'd rather try and lead and team and fail than to be an afterthought in LeBron's chasing of Jordan :manny:

Kevin Durant was never asked or was doing it on his own. This is 2 different things

I don't have a problem with what he's doing, but if Lebron is leaving like people say then it would've been his team by next year. He could stay and get the super max, and have his own team. You could say oh but the roster is made up of players only lebron can produce with (Which is BS), but same amount of time it's going to take him to build a contender wherever he goes it could be done in Cleveland.

I really don't care though. It will be interesting to see how things shakeout and where everyone ends up.

...Im not mad....you could replace him with someone like Damion and not lose a beat since they're about equal on offense with better passing from Damion. Shyt....if you replaced Kyrie with John Wall the Cavs would be much more better because Wall is a two way player with added elite vision/playmaking.
But they're not going to replace him with any of those guys:yeshrug:
