"Dr Positivity".

He's a really positive person

LOL IRVING

I will say this though - that hustle to get the steal, and his D have been good despite the bad night on O, so that's an improvement.

But watching his playmaking WHEN LEBRON IS OFF THE FLOOR, makes all the posts on LeBron hindering Kyrie's just look completely silly. It's incredulous how bad he can be against a disciplined defense and his shots aren't falling - something that wouldn't happen if he'd just MOVE THE **** BALL

Kyrie has no pass mode.

kayess · Post #285 » by **kayess** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:33 am

HE'S TAKEN 18 SHOTS????

Love's taken some dumb turnarounds but at least most of his looks were open. Kyrie man...

LeBron needs to take those shots.

SSB, has Cleveland lost the chance to be the GOAT playoff offense because of this game? (Thanks, Kyrie, LeBron's jumper)

MisterHibachi · Post #287 » by **MisterHibachi** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:43 am

The secondary rotations for Cleveland when LeBron's the primary defender have been terrible.

Not sure why people giving Kyrie a hard time you want your stars taking the shots even if they are not going in.

MisterHibachi · Post #289 » by **MisterHibachi** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:50 am

Jesus, LeBron freaking James open on a fast break and you take it 1 on 2 yourself. Kyrie is never gonna change.

Holy **** just shoot the **** 3 on the switch you idiot. It's a practice shot.

Biyombo on Lebron has been surprisingly effective. Richard Jefferson the only Cav thats been able to take advantage on the closeouts too.

kayess · Post #292 » by **kayess** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:53 am

You have the greatest transition player ever - hell, probably even the greatest player ever fullstop - on a fastbreak, and you decide to not pass it.

Was Allen Iverson even this bad?

I am now "Iverson" to "Kyrie" in "when Kobe haters describe Kobe, they're really describing Iverson"

Man that ORtg record is probably dead.

kayess · Post #294 » by **kayess** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:55 am

LeBron needs to take those **** shots. No hesitation, the second they even show going under the screen JUST **** SHOOT IT.

He was the only one that played even remotely average, but there needs to be some adjustments - they had the entire second half to do it, and none came.

TBF, they missed a lot of wide open looks that they normally bury, but even still. They still probably beat OKC on matchups alone, but they're looking at 4 straight 20 point blowouts even if Kyrie's shot is falling if he plays like this.

GSP · Post #295 » by **GSP** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:56 am

Lue still needs to learn how to adjust ingame. No reason Kyrie shouldve been part of those 4th quarter lineups. Theres no reason Cavs shouldve dropped a game to this Raptors team.

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes 1m1 minute ago
Kyrie Irving walks to the locker room in obvious pain.

I know people in this thread have been bitching about him, but please not again...

kayess · Post #297 » by **kayess** » Sun May 22, 2016 2:57 am

Also: clearly, LeBron is the reason why this team hasn't reached its ceiling, his jumper is way too broken, he's way too ball dominant, he's not letting Love and Irving flourish, etc. etc.

HeartBreakKid · Post #299 » by **HeartBreakKid** » Sun May 22, 2016 3:11 am

Am I reading the box sore correctly, Biyombo got 26 rebounds?! TT and Love gotta get on that, come on now.

RSCD3_ · Post #300 » by **RSCD3_** » Sun May 22, 2016 3:15 am

Mark Jackson during the third quarter

If they're making shots people will call it great ball movement, if they're missing shots people will say there settling too much. Even though the gameplan will be the same.

Stephen A smith complains immediately postgame that they shot too many threes. Which lost them the game, that they needed more inside play and they should have shot less open jumpers?

Ugh...People rip on mark jackson deservedly so but SAS is levels below in understanding
