    He also takes a ton of bad shots because he's their second best player and second best scoring option. There are some nights when he's their FIRST scoring option. When you're feeling it, or the team is looking for you to score, your team becomes one dimensional and mistakes will happen. This is something that takes time to figure out at the NBA level. It doesn't happen overnight. It happens to ALL young superstars.

    Damn, I can't believe I'm sticking up for Cavs players and their fans. Sweet Jesus....
    I was about to ask if everything was ok with you lol. But I totally agree

      Oh ok I guess I forgot about that. While I hope they both do play. I don't know what it is but the last 3 NBA season there have been like 3 times as many injures as normal. It has gotten to the point it is starting to effect the quality of the league. I don't know why people cant stay healthy any more. So yeah I hope they play just want to see a team at or close to full strength.

        So are we really questioning the way Curry plays the game now? The one area I can't stand in his game is also the one reason he is so good. The damn Unforce turnovers. He likes the game to move fast so I can't complain too much because he is good at it too.

              Someone posted something, some disagreed.....this isnt anything remotely new in the NBA forum on OS...and not too different from you disagreeimg with the assessment of Jimmy Butler a page back.....
              Are you serious with this Two Four? How is this even remotely similar to the Jimmy Butler assessment? Dude said that he'd take Kyrie over Jimmy because he could have an outburst offensively and win a game by himself. I simply disagreed because the way he worded his original post made it seem like Jimmy couldn't do that same thing which we've already seen him do. 13 was talking about Kyrie's performance last night, not the entire past, present and future of Kyrie Irving and OSU comes in here contributing no sort of rebuttal or explanation of his stance but saying that 13 made a stupid statement. Then you got TK in here talking about me and 13 getting married and you seriously are going to sit here and play the "who's flipping out" card with me? Come on now.

              Nobody is downing Kyrie, nobody is assessing this man's overall game or talent/IQ level. I know I'm not. I'm speaking of Kyrie in the vacuum of last night's game and how I saw him playing. Him being 23 and in his first playoffs and all this other stuff is irrelevant because we're simply talking about the way he was playing LAST NIGHT. If he's going to settle for doing that for the rest of THIS series, then I'll gladly live with that. Nothing more, nothing less to that statement.

                      You played the "flipping out" card, not me....I looked at it as having a debate/disagreement like the other 1000 times its been done on this forum. So yes, it's just like you disagreeing about Jimmy Butler....doesn't mean you were "flipping out" about it. ThreeKing gonna ThreeKing (no offense ThreeKing) so if we're going to act like that's something new for the sake of the argument, cool. If you had an issue with OSUs comments in particular you probably should've said that from the jump instead of a broad stroke about everyone flipping out about Kyrie Irving's shot selection.

                        It's all good, Two-Four.

                        The back-and-forth on here is fun with good dudes.

                                They both were going to play...they decided on Wall after warmups, that he couldn't go.
