Damn Myrie more skilled than officer Jim?

No

 

[pmatic]

Steve Nash had as much skill as Kyrie, if not more.

 

[reformeDWS]

Did anyone get the clip of Steph shimmying tonight?

 

[Based Jesus]

Kyrie not even the most skilled dude on his own team.

When he is his teams tend to do worse than when he's not

 

[703 hwy]

Draymond knew what was coming and faked an injury

 

[QU!K]

Big Julian Newman had a good game today

 

[pmatic]

Draymond knew what was coming and faked an injury

He returned in the second half?

 

[Coupé It]

Yeah, MVP is MLGA but I'll admit he had some all time bad takes during LeBron's first season in LA but to be fair he wasn't the only one. There was a strong contingent of fans who didn't want us to sign LeBron in the first place (because of some imaginary Kobe versus LeBron rivalry), wanted us trade him when we're struggling and didn't want us to trade Anthony Davis because they believed in the young core.

It's hard to believe now but there were a lot of Laker fans who wanted to build around the young core as opposed to getting Anthony freakin' Davis.

And those people shouldn’t ever talk about the sport of basketball again.

90 percent chance they shoot with two hands too.

Pretty sure MVP has acknowledged he doesn’t hoop.

 

[MVP]

Pretty sure MVP has acknowledged he doesn’t hoop.

Pretty sure I'll knock an old man out.

 

[Tony $now]

Games like the one tonight shows just how depleted this W’s team is. When the role players play bad, it curtains.

 

[lawdog1]

Pretty sure I'll knock an old man out.

So confirming you don’t hoop. Cool.

 

[ballinsam23]

Never underestimate old man strength.

 

[lawdog1]

Never underestimate old man strength.

Once I got his Kobe’s dirty he’d forfeit.

[atlsfinest]

Thoughts?

He's def top 3. He and Kob and probably KD.

You guys must have a very narrow definition of what "skills" are. There's more to being skilled than ball handling and having a crazy layup package.

Jordan, LeBron, Curry, KD, Hakeem, Nash, Kareem, Garnett, Kobe, Duncan... that's just off the top of my head.

You can make a very good argument that Anthony Davis is more skilled when you consider his shooting, finishing at the basket, ball handling and defensive skills at his size.

I'm not trying to knock Kyrie either. He's one of the most skilled players in the league currently but he's nowhere near top three all-time.

is he even top 3 currently? srs. not even a shot at ky but there are hella skilled players in L.

what makes him (easily) more than:

• dame
• lebron
• kd
• steph
• cp0
• luka
• kawhi
• beal
• cj
• curious george

i didn't want to put bigs in since it would be a lot more difficult to compare

 

[youngwolf]

“Skilled” isn’t a word I’d use to describe Dame.

No hate.

 

[Peep Game]

Kyrie is more skilled than Dame, Beal, and Mr. No Layups CJ. Come on

 

[friscostylez]

Kyrie is more skilled than Dame, Beal, and Mr. No Layups CJ. Come on

i think you are missing my point. Rod thinks Kyrie is the most skilled ever while MVPutin thinks he's top 3 of all-time. I don't think he's even top 3 currently & based off your few objections, you agree with me.

 

[QU!K]

Kyrie is more skilled than MJ?
