      The only period in Kyrie's entire career that he demonstrated that he can be a reliable offensive contributor and catalyst in a winning team was in the series the CAVs won against GSW in 2016. (The luxury of feeding off a prime LeBron)
      Note that I stated - "the series". (That Finals)
      He wasn't nearly as good in the First round and Conference Semis.
      He went to Boston and destroyed the chemistry there.
      The team of youngsters was clearly better with him off the floor than on it.
      He went to Brooklyn and couldn't be a Co-leader with KD that helps much.
      We all see how he vanished in all the games away from the Mavericks home court in the finals.
      The likes of Curry, Durant, Jokic, and even the deeply flawed Luka have demonstrated over the years that they can consistently produce excellence on the floor across every series in their conference or Finals.
      Kyrie has proven he cannot do same.
      YOU impressionable toddlers feel that having cute handles and being a career 22.2 ppg PG, who only ever looks great if he is playing alongside all NBA hof players qualifies Kyrie as an all time great.
      You are slow.
      Dwight Howard didn't make that list and you expect Kyrie would have made it?

    What's wild to me is how all these people pretending to be Brown supporters are the same ones that have continously mocked Brown about his so called "weak left hand" and never even considered him a top 10 player in the league. Same people that hate on the celtics every year. Now they're pretending to be devastated Brown didn't make the USA team. And you also have all the ones disgusing their hate for Tatum as support for Brown. All these fake supporters. Only people that really back Brown and believe in his talent and have so from day one are us celtics fans. Everyone else here with the switch up gtfo.

None of them give a crap about Brown at all. Genuine fans understand this.

And if he said all that he knows he’d get called crazy and blackballed entirely from all business.
