    Let’s be honest that Kyrie Irving only had one solid season and that was 2016 and that’s that.

    I swear some of the big stars in the NBA now just fake an injury or just say something isn’t right just to sit half the season knowing that there team will still likely make a playoff spot even if they don’t play half the season! Just my opinion🤔

    Kyrie may not be on Iverson’s level because Iverson is so much more of a cultural icon & that 01 playoff/Finals run gets remembered so much more than what anything Kyrie has done in his career even the shot he made in the 2016 Finals.

    But I feel Kyrie is over Westbrook, Westbrook has has w more bad reputation on the court. Yeah Kyrie reputation isn’t viewed the best outside the court but many analysts & fans feel Kyrie’s game is more effective than Westbrook & is more of a championship style. Eye test wise Kyrie is over Russ, better handles, better shooter, better footwork and better shot creator & shot maker.

    AI ,Charles Barkley,Patrick Ewing,Reggie Miller,Karl Malone,Stockton allstars not champions,but are remembered….I’m sorry Kendrick,but that is a false statement.
