Kyrie Irving Ceiling A More Efficient Gilbert Arenas/ Or Rich Man's Tony Parker?

[CTbasketball92]

I always wondered what his ceiling might be. He never had the scoring totals of arenas, but he playes like 5 minutes less for his career. The tony parker comparison makes a bit of sense because neither are "true" pg's but have great handles and i think keep turnovers low.

Idk, what do you guys think?

Small version of Kobe .

His ceiling is something we have never seen before, an efficient little guy volume scorer. Can't think of a comparison to that because we have never seen a point guard with this kind of penetration game and is also a great shooter. It has always been one or thr other.

And his also in a privileged position to play along side Lebron who shoulders the play making responsibilities which allows Kyrie to do what he does best.

Agreed. Not to nitpick though, but Irving is like 6'3. He is pretty big for a PG. I think he just looks smaller on television because he is always in the paint destroying opposing big men

LeBron James himself said that Kyrie can be MVP some day, coming from a man who's won 4 of them that's got to mean something

Rich man's Curry

What disrespect to Tony Parker

A rich mans Tony Parker is the GOAT PG of all time

[RoundMoundOfReb]

6'3 aggressive Chris Paul without the elite passing/vision.

[Tarik One]

He's probably the best at going to his left/weak side

Rich man's Curry

As much as we s.hit on Curry after completing the worst choke in NBA history, you would still rather have him in the regular season over Irving. Playoffs though? I am taking Irving. Curry was garbo most of the time, and not even the best player on his own team. Irving was on point almost all postseason. He was bad the first two games of the Finals. Than he went the f.uck off and hit one of the biggest shots in NBA history. I honestly wouldn't be crazy shocked if Curry won MVP again. And than of course went into the playoffs playing like his choking self.

Agreed with this. TP was a bad motherf.ucker for a long time.

idk.. tony parker's a bit different .. more movement efficient with his dribbling and just in general attacking, numbers back up he was significantly better in the paint. to me, kyrie is more of an allen iverson that can actually shoot (and less of a headcase obviously) .

Bigger AI with higher BBIQ and better shooting but less speed and quickness.
