Is Kyrie Irving the most overrated player in the NBA?

[geek tragedy]

Can't shoot, can't pass, can't play defense, can't finish.

But other than that he's fantastic.

2. against the GSW this season, he's shooting 19/62. He had 1 assist last night, and

he continues to get eaten alive when supposedly playing defense.

other than dribbling, what does he do that justifies the hype he gets?

3. Not His Biggest Fan

I'd rather have John Wall from the teams in the east. A little bigger, a little faster and plays defense far better. Still not that good a shooter, but he's certainly not worse than Irving.

The big hype was based upon his draft position and the need to anoint a big 3 in Cleveland when Lebron came back.

4. Cleveland would probably have been swept in last year's finals

had Love and Irving played.

You can't play with only 3 decent defenders on the floor against Golden State.

That's madness.

6. Curry had a terrible first half. nt

8. Probably, but Kevin Love being out certainly is helping

Cleveland

11. The Dubs will be fine relax.

After what we all saw last series do any of u doubt the Warriors will come back with a vengeance? Cmon. This was a gimme game. Tristan Thompson is NOT gonna put up those kinda numbers again. JR " the chucker" Smith got hot but he is streaky , same as Irving. The Warriors are consistent in what they do night in and night out. The Cavs don't have enough.

13. I'd take these PG's before Irving

-Jeff Teague
-Kemba Walker
-John Wall
-Gorin Dragic

15. That's A Pretty Good List

I would not have thought of Teague, even if i took the time earlier. Wall just popped into my head, but yeah, i would take Teague over Irving.

10. He's a bum

Ive said that all along. Ok. Bum is s bit harsh but he is quick I'll give him that. Other than that , I don't see it. He plays zero D, can't shoot. I don't get the hype either. I guess it's because he's on LB's team. I laugh whenever I hear people call him an elite PG. now D Lilliard is another story.

[geek tragedy]

12. Though he had a pretty good game tonight.

GS's defense was really bad though. No help.

[Ricflairwoo]

14. Horrible D

Out of character tonite for GS

Usually hype is never as good as they say and never as bad.
