Kyrie Irving is on First Take talking about his decision to leave Cleveland

I'm surprised he hasn't dropped some flat earth theory yet.

Don't let this thread make you forget that kyrie Irving thinks the earth is flat

quote:

---

He still has come out and directly said why he left the Cavs

---

He thinks he's a superstar. Kobe talked him into this and he thinks he's Kobe to Lebron's Shaq. He is good but not that good.

---

He is good but not that good.

I'd probably get roasted on this board if I said he's not even the best player on the Celtics now.

All I'll say is, it's not a 100% lock that he's better than Gordon Hayward.

Does he really need to say it. Irving doesn't want to be #2 at all, and he doesn't want to be #1 in Cleveland even after Lebron leaves. Irving got a best case scenario when and where he landed.

Well I think that has more to do with how you view Hayward as a player than kyrie. GH is a damn good player, I'm not sure I disagree with you, but that isn't to diminish kyrie. Kyrie is a top 3 PG IMO

quote:

I think most rankings have Hayward above Kyrie. I'm pretty sure both SI and ESPN did.

---

Interesting, I wouldn't have guessed that. That's good to hear.

I still think if I started a thread and said that, it would get blasted pretty good.

Hell, I can think of 1 poster claiming I was just downplaying how good Kyrie was when he was traded as a way to talk up Lebron or something like that lol.

quote:

---

Irving is arguably the best PG in the game.

---

No THAT is ridiculous.

There's no argument you or anyone can make that he's better than Steph Curry, unless you want to be mocked relentlessly.

quote:

---

You can't argue that Hayward is the best SF

---

Hayward is absolutely arguably as good as Kyrie Irving. It's fine to take Kyrie over Hayward, you're just whiffing if you think Kyrie is THAT much obviously better than Hayward...because he's not.

---

Irving is arguably the best PG in the game

I either found Kyrie'a account or found a poster with Kyrie-like intelligence.


At any rate, I'm glad Kyrie was traded and I truly believe the Cavs are better off with the trade

IIRC Kyrie asked to come on First Take and clear the air concerning his departure from Cleveland right? I mean, I know Libtard Kellerman is a bloviating pompous cuck but it's not like they were asking him to explain the human genome or some shite, most if not all those questions were damn direct and Kyrie possibly diminished his cause with his rather blatant and antagonistic approach by which he deflected the questions or answered cryptically. It was quite pathetic and childish honestly and, in turn, he became the bloviator among the 4. Arguably discouraged tons of supporters except the diehard Kyrie fans if many exist with that weird performance.
