I'm pretty sure Waiters entered the game 5 minutes into the 1st quarter, so that wasn't the case.


I checked the boxscore afterthe 3rd im pretty sure and said he had played 19 minutes and kyrie was on 31 or something.`Obviously he wasnt of the bench the whole game

So what? He played 25 minutes and I just checked, he entered the game with 7:45 left in the 1st and left with 9:48 left in the 2nd which also happened to be the ugliest stretch of the game. By my quick count, he went 1 for 4 with 2 fouls and a turnover in that time and probably played bad defense considering we gave up 38 points in the 1st alone. Why even complain about it, it's like some Cavs fans treat Dion like a 'solution' even though he's only the 4th best player on the team. Why everyone complains so much about a guy who is only good 1 out of 5 games, I do not understand (and I don't want to hear that he needs more minutes, he averages 29 a game and played 36 on Tuesday, big freaking deal if he gets an extra 6 minutes or not).

Personally i'd prefer all the young guys be playing 30 + minutes minimum. I just get more annoyed about dion because his minutes are the most inconsistent.

Wow....what a bad game. I haven't seen much of Bennett but he needs work. Kyrie Irving is great at scoring but can't dish the ball out, 14 team assists last night!!!! What a ball hog Irving is! No wonder the Cavs are worst in the league in team assists, sorry 2nd worst. Makes no sense why Irving was voted in a starter. He has to be the worst PG in the league at getting team mates involved. No wonder Bennett is struggling with his game with a ball dominant PG in charge and Mike Brown at the helm. Good luck to the Cavs fans!

Kyrie creates more assist opportunities per game than LeBron James. You have no clue what you're talking about.

If Kyrie is such a great assist maker then why are the Cavs 2nd worst in the league in Team assists. You can't just look at one part of a players game (ppg) to determine his effectiveness. Stats don't lie!!!! Kyrie's player efficiency rating is 19.97. There are 10 point guards with a better PER then Irving. Oh and Irving is listed at 35 right ahead of Andray Blatche in the PER.

P.S. - Always like a good debate but maybe you should try and provide proof....ie examples!

Words mean nothing! I could easily say Kyle Lowry is the best point guard in the league and you have no idea what your talking about but that has no value. Its an adult conversation!
