  • Ever since Kyrie Irving left the Boston Celtics, he has yet to defeat them and find his way. Through the first 2 games of the NBA Finals with the Dallas Mavericks, Kyrie Irving has had the same struggles vs Celtics. Despite playing better than in game 2, the struggles remained. So in today's video, we breakdown why Kyrie Irving has been struggling and how he must adjust going forward.

    This is one of the reasons MJ is underrated as a dribbler, he was so efficient in dribbling and wasted no movements which resulted in buckets. That in itself is a great indicator of someone who's great at dribbling.

    This is the best channel that actually analyzes kyries past 2 games. All other channels just say kyrie needs to make these shots or simply just disrespects him as a player. But this is the first channel that actually offers up a valuable solution that is backed by evidence. I agree 100% that the amount of dribble moves he is taking is causing him to be gassed before he shoots. I feel like kyrie is trying to shift defenders more than get to where he needs to be. That approach generally works for majority of teams and players but the Celtics have great defenders that don’t bite on shifty moves. Since he feels the need to shift his defenders he expends more energy really trying to sell and exaggerate the dribble moves causing him to miss short.

    1. In those AI examples: AI's points are coming primarily off of transition, off the ball, or by taking off balance shots. Speed, quickness, cutting off the ball to get open shots and the ability to make off balance, difficult, shots consistently is what makes AI, AI. Your point about Kyrie missing short on his jumpshots is because after he gets into his dribble package , he raises up into his shot off balance and doesnt jump straight up in the air but jumps in a direction away from the defender to avoid being blocked which causes his shot to come up short. Kyrie is not AI where he can take and hit off balance shots with consistency. He is not scoring his points in transition either like AI but mainly off of isolation in the half court. There is no off the ball, pick and pop for Kyrie where his teammates feed him the rock like Steph Curry on the warriors. Kyrie is ball dominant and the main ball handler bringing the ball up court.Kyrie cant be AI as he doesnt have the personnel or the skillset. 2.With that addressed, The issue is not Kyrie over dribbling: kyries has to overdribble somewhat to compensate for his size and fake out the defenders as hes playing against larger defenders. 3. The issue is Kyries inability to efficiently create space from the larger defender when in isolation to get his shot off. The ball screens are supposed to help with that but theyre ineffective so it just pushes them further into the shot clock forcing the Mavs to have to throw up a shot and pray. All Kyrie has to do is stop being so one dimensional with the half court isolation and ball dominance.Incorporate more off the ball movement , let his team mates set him up and push the ball in transition to keep the defense honest. Half court isolations off of sh*tty ball screens turns the game 1v1 with Kyrie on an island. Too much Kyrie and Luka reliance for offensive production. The rest of the team has to get involved. Its easy for the defense to key off on Luka and kyrie and force the rest of the team to beat you. Same thing applies to Luka. Mavs are getting beat through their role players coming up short. Not Kyrie and Luka.

    The video is all correct. The problem is Kyrie doesn't move without the ball enough. Kyrie runs to his spot stands there until the offense stalls and the they pass it to Kyrie to bail the team out with 7 seconds on the clock. Iverson would 50% of the time catch the ball on the move. Creating transition buckets from inbounds passes by catching the inbound on the move.

    To be fair, Kyrie isn't as quick as AI was. Hence, he has to rely on those skills more to create separation.
    Most all-tume great scorers get their points through simple and quick move.
    It's called being efficient with energy. That's how those players ramp up their production. Players like Mike and Lebron can score with simple moves because they are physically superior tho.

    This day and age the on ball guys dribble too much point blank period. They've done 8 to 10 dribbles before they've even made one move to the rim. Don't forget, due to dribbling too much the offensive guys don't move. So the simplicity of fundamental bball gets lost. He would be able to do a jab step if the spacing is/was there...from others being involved.

    Kyrie Irving does not have a problem on scoring on the Boston Celtics. He said it himself. He’s more focused on getting his team involved and getting them to play better. He already knows he can score on anybody his main focus for this season was to play better defense and get his teammates involved. He doesn’t have a problem with scoring.

    Things this video doesnt take into account:
    How much *defensive SCHEMES* have improved
    How much defensive at the *point guard position* has improved
    The fact that the mavericks likely didnt have a *TRUE expectation* to make the finals and likely *arent in shape* for such a deep playoff run, leaving them with only *two people who can score playing against a top 3 rated defense*
    The mavericks play charts, which are likely drawn up for Kyrie to do *exactly what he's doing.* The reason it doesnt work is because the celtics are strong defensively against any form of offense outside of perimeter-heavy play, completely negating the ability to get into motion off a quick 1-2 dribble unless youre coming *down in transition, thanks to the acquisition of Jrue Holiday.*
    I think this video gets a lot correct but theres a lot its ignoring for it to work in a 1/1 ratio, mostly because the league is largely more competitive than when AI played. The only thing AI's era had was over-aggression. Not necessarily *FANTASTIC defenses.* Cooking in the isolation back then was MUCH easier than it is now n thats why PGs play off the PnR *way more now than they ever did.*
    Either way, good analysis! Just wanted to throw in my two-cents!

    Kyrie is definitely overdribbling, he has open shots he just wants better shots. Luka has the same problem and plays very slow allowing the defense to set up but Luka is bigger and stronger so he can get away with it more

    I disagree. Kyrie is very short... he needs to do the moves he does because of his size. Players his size, who doesnt have the counters, moves, or dribbling ability that he has wont get very far. Its only been 2 games... people act like he hasnt been getting good looks, he just has trouble delivering or finishing.

    How he going to have that iverson style AI had a lightning fast first step and he jump high so he shoot he could shoot over any contest combined with high release point kyrie need to do all that dribble ai don’t and brown and jrue Tatum and I notice that there guilding him with there strength and when they stop him from dribble for like 0.2 seconds them brown and jrue and Tatum meeting him with there chess and using there strength then they use they long arms to poke the ball and I notice that kyrie had success getting separation from white and the bigs that it he should just stop attacking brown Tatum jrue o see him barely getting separation.

    • @pattdor1
      @pattdor1  17 днів тому +5

      getting by people is about how fast the step is, it’s about the timing of the step and the pace of it which is why he had multiple straight line drives in game 2 vs white & holiday. kyrie has the craftiness and skill to get those quick drives, it’s just about the setup and how well the team puts him in position to do so.
      now the alternative when tatum and JB are guarding him is to use handoffs and ball screens with porzingis in the play or horford because they’ll play a drop vs him cuz in an iso vs tatum and brown, they guard kyrie really well. with these handoffs and ball screens, they’ll chase over and even when/if they get back in front, they won’t be set and locked in like a regular isolation and now kyrie has better and can create better angles since they are still recovering
