Despite a disappointing end to a rocky season, Kyrie Irving says he's sticking with the Brooklyn Nets... but not just as a player. During a presser after the Nets were soundly swept out of playoff contention, Kyrie divulged that he sees himself more in a managerial role next season, and alongside Kevin Durant and actual manager Sean Marks, he intends to manage the franchise. Nick Wright tells Chris Broussard and Kevin Durant why the idea of Kyrie managing the team is ridiculous, and not what he wants to hear from the star after the Nets went 0-4.

Nick Wright can get on my nerves with his points and claims like LeBron is the GOAT, but his take on Holiday vs Kyrie completely makes sense and agreeable. Kyrie has better 'individual' skills - which is basically offense, but when it comes to defense, scrappiness, and contributing to winning and showing leadership, Holiday is the clear choice for a point guard.

I’m not sure about that, I know Kyrie just had a horrible series, but I still think Kyrie is better. It’s a lot closer than it frankly should be with kyrie’s skill, but I think Kyrie might still be better. If they’re both off, jrue is more impactful cause he plays great D, but it seems like everyone forgot that in the nets bucks series last year, KD and role players nearly beat the bucks with one of the largest contributing factors being jrue not being able to hit anything and still taking horrible heat check shots. If jrue was atleast shooting decent or just not taking horrible shots, that series probably wouldn’t have gone 7 games, and watching those first 2 games, if Kyrie was in, the bucks might’ve got swept

@briankeegan5852 2 года назад

@@bryanfoster326 It’s not about the series, it’s just in general. Yeah I guess if kyrie made all his shots the Bucks might have gotten swept, but he’s extremely inconsistent so the Bucks won the series.

I wanted Giannis to beat KD last year, and I was tearing my hair out watching his shot choice. Kyrie isn’t really that inconsistent, I’ve been saying it for a bit, this was a horrible matchup for the nets, Tatum figured out KD last year and was shitting on him, and if the DPOY didn’t have to split time trying to guard harden and Kyrie and instead could just zero in on Kyrie, he could give him trouble. Kyrie may take bad shots, but it’s bad shots like curry takes bad shots, they’re bad for most people, not bad for them. What’s a bad shot for jrue is a good shot for Kyrie. I could see it being close, and theres definitely teams where jrue would be better for, but I could see Kyrie being the 2nd best player on a championship, cause he already has been. Couldn’t say the same for jrue

@briankeegan5852 2 года назад

@@bryanfoster326 I feel like I guess it’s just really subjective whos allowed to take certain shots because Jrue always shoots above 26% from 3, so underperforming in a series shouldn’t stop him from shooting.

Durant was in Golden State talking about how they needed to do things differently, like running more Iso. As if they hadn’t already won a title and won 73 games and made another Finals, before he got there.

@DReppin2009 2 года назад

Where is your source? KD didn't ask them to run more ISO. That doesn't even make any sense. Steve Kerr ran a lot more ISO in KDs last year there than he should. KD was upset with Nash running more ISO instead of playing the brand of basketball that worked. They were becoming too KD centric.

@@DReppin2009 ""The motion offense we run in Golden State, it only works to a certain point. We can totally rely on our system for maybe the first two rounds. Then the next two rounds we're going to have to mix in individual play. We've got to throw teams off, because they're smarter in that round of playoffs."

The problem with Kyrie is he doesn’t fit with any team unless he just does the job he’s being paid to do to the best of his ability. He doesn’t do that. He thinks it’s better when he’s putting his two cents into every conversation out there instead of just focusing on his actual job. He knows best and you can’t tell him nothing. It’s rubbish.

That’s what happens when you’re a raging narcissist and megalomaniac. You think you know everything and everyone else is the problem. Kyrie is a textbook embodiment of the Dunning Kruger effect.

And people wonder how Steph Curry's teammates are always happy, having fun, and thriving and the entire organization/coaching staff does nothing but praise who he is on and off the court. It's because they have an actual leader who doesn't have an ego, leads by example, and is willing to do what it takes to make things work better for the team not for himself. I can't ever imagine KD or Kyrie being the type to come off the bench for nobody not even their momma's🥴 Steph has a totally different mindset than these guys, they can never be on his level mentally and he's teaching that young group of guys he has over their the same thing and it shows.

As per usual, when discussing Kyrie's game, the media only looks at offense. Guy is a horrible defender which is HALF OF THE GAME. Not only that, but he is not a great passer (which is another skill) and his offball movement isn't great either. So don't come at me with he's the most skilled guy to ever play. No, that is factually incorrect for the skills that he lacks that I listed above. So in a sense, Jrue is more skilled than Kyrie and a better player in my opinion. Kyrie hasn't done much to winning in his career. Cavs were horrible when he was the number one. He made an upcoming celtics team deevolve when he got there. His winning percentage while he has played with the nets isnt great... I just don't understand how people miss these glaring examples that indicts Kyrie's game.

Kyrie is a very skilled basketball player, but he's a certified nutjob. It's the flat earth thing, the anti-vax thing, moon landing and whatnot.

Labor is not his forte (only two seasons with 60+ games), his teams rarely succeed, but he somehow thinks he's the ultimate basketball weapon. He could be. He could have been.
