edited....LBJ's support in Cleveland WAS Kyrie....and Irving was the best player on the court that I saw during the championship series....only games I saw. JMO....players know....Irving "took over" when it counted....jmo again. The game has been changed to help LBJ's style of play...and annointed him |
In the 2016 Finals
Game 2 win, Irving 30 pts, 8 assists, 4 rebs. James 32 pts, 6 assists, 11 rebs
Game 5 win: Irving 41, 6,3 James 41,7,16
Game 6 win: Irving 23,3,4 James 41,11,8
Game 7 win: Irving 26,1,6 James 27,11,11
In your opinion I suppose Irving could have been the best player on the court... but in reality he was second to James. James scored more points, had more rebounds and more assists and played more minutes. James was the better player.
BTW, you left out Scott and Cooper. Magic had an incredible team around him. And in case you're wondering, I'm a Lakers fan.
Lakers snagged Rajon Rondo...
