He really improved last year and his Drtg was right at the league average. Is he Rajon Rondo on defense? No, but he is far from 'bad' anymore. He is a average defender. I dont want to see Kyrie develop into a solid defender as he gets older and people still say he is bad on defense because thats how he played when he was 20-21 years old in the NBA.
Sorry, pet peeve lol carry on
So Irving is a good defender now? I didn't know that.
PC, my advice to you is to avoid popping off without having actually read the entirety of what someone has written. Assumptions do you no favors, lad.
Sorry, that sounded a lot worse than I intended it to be. I was just honestly surprised that Kyrie Irving is a decent defensive player; it seems like he's usually one of the first names you hear when "Terrible Defensive Player" is mentioned. So apologies to LivingLegend.
