I know nikkaz on here like all that fancy dribblin' shyt, but that wont win you titles. Cavs dont swing the ball worth shyt. Only time that ball should stop is when Bron is posting up, but he doesnt seem like he wants to do that.

every time LeBron get's the ball in the post he turns and faces 75% of the time. Makes no sense. He can bully iggy or barnes, and just face and drive by green.

No reason why he doesn't have that 33-36 year old karl Malone turn around J at this point in his career

If the Cavs dealt Kyrie for Paul, the coli would disintegrate into dust

why was this made after yesterdays game?:huh:

kyrie would have had 8+ assists easily team just played horrible. mutliple passes were mishandled under the hoop from mozgov from kyrie and other open shots he provided through driving. in fact I wanted him to start gunning while we were still down twenty cus nobody could hit anything except jr

he cooked wall just last week. Kyrie missed shots he normally makes against GS on Monday. Shyt happens. Maybe he was too tight/excited
Him making more shots has exactly what to do with Curry dropping 35??

I know all you dudes don't have me on ignore so I'll try again:

What does Kyrie do when he's not scoring the ball?

Stats don't lie... but let The Coli tell it...

Stats = hate unless it's fits their agenda

I'm fukking tired of this shyt.... you cats really be prancing around here like y'all know sports when actually you don't know shyt.

"Kyrie is the perfect PG for LeBron"

Nikka please... Kyrie don't do shyt except shoot. How is that perfect for LeBron and the other three players on the team?

Again: What the fukk does Kyrie doing to positively effect the game when he's not shooting the ball?

Last night's game got nikkas goin haywire :laff:. Kyrie and Bron work very well together and as someone else said, he's the perfect PG compliment to LeBron. You can pretty much guarantee an L and a bad one any night the "Big 3" all play and combine for 27 pts.

This is the same argument that many have made for Westbrook but Russy has always been a better playmaker then Kyrie and real talk Kyrie may be better at the 2 spot in the long run. But he does need the ball in his hand to be effective so they have to be delicate with how they handle this. Though Kyrie at the 1 spot isn't the reason why they lost to the Warriors or while Love is struggling.
