Kyrie Irving of the Brooklyn Nets was one of the players left off of the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team. Chris Broussard and Nick Wright speculate on the reasons why Kyrie could have been left off the list, and decide whether it's egregious that he was left out.

Nick has been slaying it with his takes on this top 75 list with Kyrie and Dwight

@JonSmith-hk1bq 2 года назад

He was dead wrong about Reggie Miller. WAY too much emphasis on All-NBA teams and completely ignoring that he was the best player on a moderately talented Pacers team that consistently were near the top of the Easter Conference for several years, made it to the Finals, and darn near beat Jordan's Bulls. The writers in the 90s simply didn't know what they were watching. That's why he didn't have more accolades.

@bryanfoster326 2 года назад

@@JonSmith-hk1bq yeah, but he was more the best player on a very good team, it’s kinda like richard Hamilton on that pistons (I’d say reggie is better but same situation). I don’t know what nick’s take is on it, but people either wildly underrate or overrate reggie Miller.

@Marcus-XXL 2 года назад

He always makes shots like those so it’s overlooked. And yes that’s one of the most iconic moments because he basically changed history and lebrons legacy wouldn’t be what it is today he wouldn’t be compared to jordan anymore. And kyrie was only 24 and was debated to be top 2 point guards in the nba and it went back and forth between him and curry for the past 2-3 years. And after that finals the way he was playing and accomplished so young he was projected to be the best pg of all time. That is the reason he was on the cover of 2k. Its funny cause he was above curry but curry is now already projected to go down as the best pg of all time. It’s funny how everyone opinions changed and the hate he got just because he left lebron. No one is even touching curry now but kyrie was in his best years. Kyrie is had a better year than kd and curry in their best years last year yet he wasn’t the mvp. He recieved hate before he even stepped foot on the court for the Celtics and he still got even more hate even tho he played good. People taking his personality into the reason he’s “not good”. Yes the Celtics still made the playoffs every year and people knocking him for getting angry and not winning a chip but somehow forget that jayson Tatum was a rookie and Jaylen brown only played one year and they still had the best records in the past 6 years wen kyrie was playing for them for those 2 years. Celtics are still in the same situation even tho jayson and jaylen got better with the team getting better too. Kyrie is underrated and people like u need to stop treating him like he’s some average player. If alllen iverson is on this list kyrie should be too. Iverson said himself kyrie better than him. This list is based most on popularity not skill

How can he be the the top 75 player list when he's never ever even been said to be the best PG in the NBA. Probably not even top 5. He's not even the best player on the teams he's been on. When he's your solo star the only thing he leads you to is number 1 draft picks. When he's hurt and he's hurt a lot the teams he's on play better without him. So how is this a top 75 player ever? Kyrie is a joke that does keep you laughing.

@sanoodilon4563 2 года назад

Even as a number 2 he's doubtful. I personally believe he was great with the Cavs because he was with LeBron. I think no other superstars can win with Kyrie as a No.2. Other No.2s Can fail to lead the team to much. For example i think Dame would be a great No2. I don't think teams could be better without them though.

@InvestBetter. 2 года назад

Vinc-anity, Bernard King and Dwight Howard should be on this list There was a time, in 1985, where you could make the argument that Bernard King was the best player in the NBA, if we're talking peaks. He was unstoppable when he won the scoring title. He was an early version of James Harden, except he played from the post/elbow, not from the top

No scoring titles, no assist titles, couldn’t lead a team to the playoffs without another star (and a better one at that), no major award votes. If skills, a single title as #2, and the clutch shot of 2016 gets you into the top 75, then sure. I’d take Dwight over him all time

@@pleaseshutup7053 But they were great for their time. You can't say well X doesn't shoot 3s like Curry. Well when X played there was no 3 point shot. What were you in your time. Kyrie has never ever been said to be even in the top 5 of his time. So how is this a top 75 player ever when you aren't even the top 5 of your own time. Some players would plug and play from the past easily. Wilt would ruin the NBA now. His skills worked then they'd even be better now with zero centers in the league. As Jerry West said, "if Wilt played today. He'd make a today's NBA centers look pretty foolish." West kind of knows basketball I'd say. Your judge were they great in their time.

@ericeiserloh8170 2 года назад

I don't know Nick Wright much as a sport's analyst, but I came up with the same egregious snubs that he has: Sidney Moncrief was a tier one player for 6 seasons on both ends of the court, which a lot of guys on the list can't touch. Even more-so Tracy McGrady, Bernard King, Dwight Howard, and I'll throw in another one- Chris Webber. These were are MVP candidates at some point, and a bunch of guys on the list have never come close to that. There are, of course others. If you want to consider Tony Parker, what about Dennis Johnson, the best player Bird said he ever played with, and that was when he was past his prime. What about Big Bob Lanier, or Alonzo Mourning? What about Grant Hill or David Thompson? Most of these guys were hurt by lack of longevity, or in a few cases by having long careers made up of two phases: Pre and post injury. Who has mostly been left off are players who were tier 1 (top 5 or top 10 in the league) for 5 or 6 years for players who were top 25-30 for a longer period, which isn't very satisfying to me.
