    Ky is as consistent as ever, he's peaking late. I feel like he's gradually entering into his sage persona, being a great role model on and off the court for all those young guys on his team. Everyone including Luka is coming to him for advice and he is flourishing in this new found role. I respect him more than any other player in this league right now.

      That kyrie shot 54% in the midrange and the only place that kyrie hasn’t been good from yet in this season so far is the midrange, he’s shooting 39% in the midrange so far but to be fair to him he was like 17% from the midrange in like the first 11 games, so he’s gradually brought it up. Kyrie from 2017 to 2024 has shot somewhere between 46% and 50% in the midrange so I believe he’ll bring it up.

    I think peoplee overlook how much he scores without foul calls. especially since fouls are so subjective and 1 person will get calls another wont.
    People think Devin Booker is better than Kyrie but in reality the only think Booker is better at is getting foul calls.
    Same thing for most of the league. SGA for example some will say defense have no choice but to foul him but it logically doesnt make sense. 1. SGA hunts for fouls and the nba for years said they would not reward for that 2. Why would defense foul SGA but kyrie who is 50% from 3 50% from paint 50% from mid range get fouled less if they had to foul SGA?
    realistically SGA just gets calls others wont. If driving in more was a path to getting more calls everyone would do it. SGA drives in more because he gets more calls then everyone else.

    • @abtocool6350
      @abtocool6350 4 дні тому

      ⁠​⁠@@johnredelfs6115I would argue the tough shotmakers are more valuable in the 4th quarter in the playoffs then players like a giannis, lebron, Zion, magic, shaq and others. In the playoffs defenses take away the rim, and the three. They give you floaters from like 7-10ft and the midrange. Before the finals in the first 3 rounds he averaged 23/4/5 on 48/42/83 splits. So the tough shots were fine at that point, he just went cold in the finals(in TD Garden). He still averaged 28 at home in the finals. Some times you just need a guy that can get you a tough bucket especially in the playoffs when points start becoming harder to come by.

    Kyrie Irving is likely to go down in history as one of the most underrated basketball players, particularly for his controversial views on the Flat Earth theory, the existence of lands beyond the poles, sun gods, and the Illuminati. This has drawn significant attention, and it seems those in powerful positions were very upset. However, over his lifetime, Kyrie generated approximately $10 billion for the teams he played for, which may be why he wasn’t met with the same fate as Kobe Bryant.🙏🙏🙏💯

  • @T1Oracle

    Kyrie's weakness comes when he starts over dribbling, giving the defense more time to figure out his rhythm. So far, he's doing a good job of keeping that in check. Hopefully he can continue doing that even in the big moments in the playoffs.

      I disagree, kyrie has matured his game since leaving Cleveland, he’s scoring off the ball more, face up midrange jumpers, triple threat threes, and he’s good in the post with either hitting fadeaways in the post or playing bully ball against smaller defenders. He was also solid in the playoffs, in the first 3 rounds he averaged 23/4/5 on 48/42/83 splits and even if you include the finals averaged 22/4/5 on 47/39/85 splits. He’s always played good in the playoffs. In 2015,2016,2017,2021, and 2022 his playoffs true shooting percentage has been above the playoff league average and in 2024 it was exactly neutral due to his finals skewing his overall efficiency. So this means he’s been objectively above the league average efficiency in the playoffs pretty much every year besides 2019. So his play style clearly doesn’t effect his play.
