Shameless.
18-0 run against the Warriors with Kyrie on the bench.
Beat the Raptors without Kyrie.
Beat the Hornets without Kyrie AND Horford.
How does all that not count for something?
Team stands out with their defense, yet they defend as good or better with Kyrie off the floor.
And you've already seen the stat I posted showing how bad their performance is with Kyrie on and Horford off.
Your kneejerk reaction to pump Kyrie up for anything you can has been exposed. This is much more a "Billups on the Pistons" situation than a "Wade on the Heat" situation.
