Wow, actually driving to the hoop and not settling for a jump shot.

Nice win on the road, but probably would have been better had Lawson hit the game winner. For draft reasons.

But in the clutch, kyrie gets it done!!

Agreed a road win in Denver is impressive. Reps for staying with it.

Also i can only think of one game where LBJ drove to the basket for a game winner, instead of an idiotic fade away shot. Game winner in the playoffs against the Wizards.

Kyrie is a pimp.

Question:

What is Byron doing with the centers? He plays one for a couple games and then they don't play for a couple games. I don't get it. Hollins should barely play in my opinion.

Kyrie never settles. He's not scared to shoot big FT's either.

He's basically hit 3 game winners and has only played in 33 games. Not even 20 years old yet.

10 points in about 2 1/2 minutes including the game winner.

Hollins sucks. I think he's leading the league in moving screens.

Yes, he does suck. I don't get what Byron is doing. He plays Erden (Spelling?) for a couple games straight and then sits him for a few games. Hollins should rarely play in my opinion.

I dont understand it either. He does A LOT of this with Samardo as well. I dont undertand why you would sit a guy for a 3-5 game stretch, play him for a few and then sit him again. His rotations at 4 and 5 have been a little strange this season.

I agree. Games like last night are important for the development of Kyrie though. I want the high pick but he needs some games like this

My opinion is that they all suck. This is probably Byron's opinion too.

Ha I agree for the most part. I just dont understand playing Erden for 5 games straight and then sitting him for 3 or 4 games. To me Samuels and Erden should be playing most of the minutes for the big men. Hollins is seeing way too many minutes in my eyes.

I agree, it's weird.

Horrible trade. Not even the 3 mil is good!

Ridnour is probably better than Sessions. Tolliver blows, but so does Gibson this year (have you seen his shooting percentage?).

Realistically it's shit for shit. It's not a terrible deal, but it doesn't really help anyone.

I'd rather hope someone (looking at you, Lakers) is desperate enough to give up a 1st round pick.
