Kyrie Irving is one guy I cannot really figure out. He is very talented, but it seems he always has issues. When he was paired with Lebron James in Cleveland they created a duo that was tough to beat. They won a NBA Championship together, but it seemed that wasn’t enough for Kyrie. Irving and Lebron seemed to have friction in Cleveland towards the end and Kyrie asked to be traded. He was traded to Boston and it was a disaster on many fronts.
In Boston, Kyrie got hurt and he did not seem to gel with his new teammates at all. He was not in Boston long before he moved to Brooklyn and he said he was glad to be there. Kevin Durant signed with Brooklyn and it looked like Kyrie had the perfect running mate. Kyrie got hurt again in 2020 and played limited games. Fast forward to 2021 and it seems Kyrie has lost interest in playing basketball. He seems to be focused on other things, not basketball.
The one thing that we can make from Kyrie is no one really understands him but himself. When it seems we got him figured out he changes the rules once again. Kyrie without a doubt is very talented and can carry an NBA team. Getting his head there for 82 games seems to be a real problem these days.
No matter what people think of Kyrie Irving he is super talented and all we can do is hope he gets his life together real soon. If he doesn’t the NBA has lost a very good talent way too soon. Only Kyrie really knows and he is not telling anyone it seems, so I guess we will just have to wait to see.
