Btw, we haven't faced a murderer's row of opponents and I expect the shooting percentages at least to tick back up some, but I have been very pleasantly surprised with Kyrie's defensive effort so far. Celtics overall are #1 in dRTG and "Through 7 games, Kyrie has a 97 defensive rating (by far his lowest), leads the NBA in total steals, opponents are shooting 43/29% against him, he’s 4th in the NBA in deflections per game (3.7) which also leads the team, he’s 5th in the NBA in loose balls recovered per game, and he’s contesting more shots as a Celtic than he did as a Cav."
