Batman/Kyrie Irving needs a Robin BAD

[NattyPButter]

thompson could be, maybe i'm just hopeful....alonzo gee too

I don't know about Gee...I think he shoots the team out of games. Today he made a crap ton of mistakes.

Irving, Lebron, and Dwight.

He's only in his second season. Guy is 20-years old. People are so damned impatient these days. There was a time when a franchise was given the opportunity and the time to build around a superstar talent.

Hell, OKC was terrible in Durant's second year.

As great as Kyrie is, he is still learning the game himself. This is a very young roster figuring out how to work together. Give it some time. It is THE youngest composite roster in the entire NBA.

RedBlack - I'm with you, but dude's got a point. My Lord, we better get after things with this young fella or it's going to be Decision #2. Just hoping we've learned our lesson. We tried to hope that Larry Hughes and Antawn Jamison and Wally Scerbiak and Mo Williams were the 2nd fiddle. As we now now, LBJ was looking at players like DWade and Chris Bosh. LBJ was not f-ing around. Will we make the same mistake twice and not get another superstar here? I think that's all the question is asking? And in terms of surrounding cast, we got CJ Miles and John Leurer this off-season. I'm scared, because Tristan Thompson is the #4 pick in the draft who can't shoot or dribble.

I'm with you, but that same question - Will he (Kyrie) stay? is going to start surfacing before too long with the lineups we keep putting on the floor.

Should have drafted Drummond.

I really want to see him stick around in Cleveland. I know it's going to be tough to lure anything special to Cleveland, but I'd really like to see him succeed. The dude works hard and performs each night for a bad team.

If this dude were white you'd be calling his stats empty and saying that he's not a winner. But yeah, he works hard and performs every night for a bad team. 2

It's different when you're playing at such a high level in year two. The only guys that are white that get mentioned as having empty stats are David Lee and Kevin Love. Both have been in the league for a while and have won nothing. Maybe if Kyrie keeps playing like this in a couple years and they suck then he;ll be talked about as having empty stats.

No thanks.

Of course Irving needs help though, who doesn't? But it's his second season in the NBA. Waiters has shown a little promise, we have to see how he develops.

What happened to Dion "Next D Wade" Waiters?

[DStebb716]

What happened to Dion "Next D Wade" Waiters?

He has played very well. He has just been injured. I still think he turns out to at least be a very good scorer.

[Meticode]

What happened to Dion "Next D Wade" Waiters?

He's he had ankle sprain or something the last 5-6 games. He's turned out decent. Inconsistent, but expected as a rookie. The talent is there, it's just if he's going to put the work in or not to improve. He's great at getting to the basket and finishing, he's shown flashes of being able to shoot the lights out of the arena. Just has to put the work in.

[TheBigVeto]

Well maybe if Lebron comes back he can be one...

But seriously, Varejao can be one. I mean he killed Dwight Howard.

Kyrie's gonna take his talents elsewhere one day

Kyrie's gonna take his talents elsewhere one day

Maybe...but what are you basing this on?
