Is Kyrie Irving the best third option EVER?

[russwest0]

Or no?

[Kvnzhangyay]

Have you ever heard of James Worthy, Dennis Rodman, Kevin Mchale, and Wilt Chamberlain sorta (behind west and baylor)?

[navy]

lol, no

[MP.Trey]

James Worthy

[RRR3]

James Harden
Robert Parish
James Worthy
Tim Hardaway/Chris Mullin/Mitch Richmond (I don't know what the pecking order was)
Pau Gasol 2012
Chris Bosh
Shawn Marion
Manu Gin

He isnt better than any of Run TMC, he isnt better than Baylor, Wilt, or West, he may one day be James Worthy legacy wise...maybe....

Im not sure why id put him over Robert Parish.

Or whoevber you put 3rd between John Havlicek and Sam Jones. Thats if you mean 3rd best player not scoring option...because otherwise Russell gets it.

Kyrie is a great 3.

He just isnt the best ever.

Irving might be the 2nd option though.

[TheMarkMadsen]

Depends on how well he plays this season

but a 22 year old who already has 2 ASG appearances, a FIBA MVP & and ASG MVP who is expected to be the top flight point guard in the league for years to come being your 3rd option is a huge luxury.

James Worthy

I agree, with Bosh not that far behind.

Gasol had a bad playoffs, but he was a great 3rd option that year. Kyrie has an excellent change to be better and I'd bet he will be in he playoffs but we don't know yet.


Also,

Bill Russell (in terms of scoring only ofc he was best player on his team)
Gail Goodrich
Jack Sikma/Dennis Johnson on championship Sonics (just going by numbers Kblaze do you know who was the 3rd option on that team?)

Irving might be the 2nd option though.

Personally I think he will be but we'll just have to see how everything plays out, won't we?

[TheMarkMadsen]

not going to lie, Was really excited to watch Kyrie continue to progress and see what he could do as the go to guy on a team with some actual talent.

Kyrie & Love duo by themselves would be f[COLOR="Black"]uc[/COLOR]king nasty..

kind of sucks that he's about to be relegated to "stand in the corner" because Irvings ability with the ball is what makes him the most exciting player on offense..possibly in the entire league

[RRR3]

Never is Irving more exciting than Westbrook
