Lillard is the better athlete, has a better sense of how to run a team (a lot of that has to with coaching & team), and has yet to be hurt.

I wouldn't say he's a better athlete or knows how to run a team better, he just has better guys around him. He turns the ball over less but he also doesn't have to create as much as Kyrie.

Kyrie is underrated athletically, he's not going to dunk like Dame but speed wise they are even, I've seen Kyrie put the burners on Westbrook and we know his level athletically.

Put kyrie on the blazers with that roster and he puts up better stats than Dame. My own opinion though
 
Dame sucks on defense, he's not any better than Kyrie.


Dame's best 3pt % (this season) 39%

Kyrie shot 39% as a teenager and last season this year he was at 35 but I'm rolling with the other two.


TS% for both of them is 56%


Kyrie shoots better mid range and around the rim.


The narrative will change for Kyrie as soon as he plays around talent and good coaching.
Kyrie doesn't attempt nearly as many three's though... for a reason.

Also I wouldn't say Lilliard's D sucks.. Irving's definitely does though.

Interesting TS% numbers. Like I said, the narrative would be different for sure if Kyrie was on the Blazers
