Kyrie creates so much confusion for opposing teams defense because he can dribble his way out of any defensive traps and he’s that one guy that you can’t really game-plan for because he has so many unique moves in his arsenal.
Thanks for all the great memories, LeBron! The show must go on! #Heatnation

No Kyrie makes this unwatchable. Just a beatdown.

Actually I believe KD is the original connoisseur of this art form.

Aldridge and Millsap look like they're running in quicksand.

The Nets look old and slow everywhere. Even Harden looks like he doesn't have the same burst he usually does. Their frontline is geriatric and can't compete on the glass at all. They pretty much HAVE to make a trade for a decent big or they have no chance to win the title. Even the efficiency of Harden and KD can't hold up vs teams constantly getting opportunities at bunnies at the rim off offensive boards.
