That doesn’t mean he hurts the team, because you have guys like Al Horford, Marcus Smart, etc. that are all very willing passers. You just don’t see him in a playmaking role, even though it would probably benefit the team more than constant isolations.
Was speaking in general, not you directly because I’ve heard this same thing on Twitter and other sites as well. But still, my original point remains.

But I do know that if Rozier was struggling or even if the Cavs were up 2-0, all these hypothetical trade scenarios involving Kyrie would not be popping up right now.

And Kyrie has never been a high assist guy in his career(Pretty much always been average in that regard)but even with that, the other things he did on the court offsets that. I’m just not ready to get behind the “They should consider trading Kyrie because of Rozier” train yet.
