Irving when healthy is basically a midget Kobe Bryant. He was celtics best player. Of course they miss him. Celtics just got lucky they faced Raptors without Kawhi, Raptors with Kawhi would of Swept Jason Tatbum.

Kyrie was complete trash vs the Bucks in the 2019 playoffs.

Just once I wanna click a link and see the words quoted.

Let me know when Tatbum wins anything without Irving.

Bucks were tough that season, they were going to be up 3-0 in the ECF until Kawhi saved raptors in overtime.

Jesus, you are a garbage poster dude. How do you manage to squeeze Kawhi into every conversation?

[JohnMax]

Yeah, a guy who sits out games because he just doesn't feel like playing...great leader.

Are you a Gordon Hayward fan? Did you used to root for Celtics when he was on their team? Do you still root for Celtics?

So true.

He lead the Cavs to 2016, Boston hasn't been the same without him

kyrie was huge 2016 and if he wasnt fragile then lebron would have another finals MVP 2015

The thing is Kyrie was always typecast incorrectly as a point guard.

Now that he's alongside a big guard and true playmaker, he can really shine as a 2.

He was almost always the best guard in his matchups in Boston when he played for Boston. This is a false narrative.

[It's A VC3!!!]

The Celtics roster is much better than their losing record suggests. They have a lot more talent than a 15-17 team. Being 15-17 has very little to do whether or not Kyrie is there. I don't agree with the CEO publicly making this statement because that is covering up the losing season with a "If Kyrie was still here" hypothetical.

Sounds like a purposeful insult at the two young bucks. Neither is doing enough to get the team to higher levels.

2019 he played in the postseason yet the Cs came up short of an ecf trip

Agreed, no team with two all-stars should be 15-17. It's even worse when you realize one of those all-stars was All-NBA 3rd team last season.

Nobody has ever said Kemba is better than Kyrie. Irving is no leader, though. That's a joke.

yes... plenty said it. and many were calling for terry rozier to take his place when he first went down. Kyrie is producing on 122 ORTG this year just like Chris Paul, except on double volume.
