He looks nothing like the player he did coming out of college. I don't think this game, against the Knicks, is an aberration either because he's had similar problems guarding other players and has had similar lackluster efforts this season.

Kyrie's having a down year. Most players have a sophomore slump. I guess Kyrie skipped a year and is having a junior year slump. I would still take him over most of the PGs in the world.

I use to think that but now I'm not so sure. He was a guy I was hoping we could target in 2016.

As you alluded to in the other thread, maybe the way this team is built has something to do with it, don't see too many vets as well.

I'm 90% sure he just needs a change of scenery. Playing for the Cavs is like slowly dying by poisioning

Cavs are probably most depressing team in the universe right now, in any sport in any league in any country,

between the uniforms, which i think have a lot to dow ith it, and the arena that always looks sad and gloomy, and then the idiot owner,

it's so sad

That's true but there seems to be something else about his game and stride that seem to be off. He just seems broken. Maybe it's just me.

Not hearing anything good about Kryie in the lockerroom either. Losing makes bad teammates worse. Just ask Lebron.

I read an article the other day that said his whole attitude changed after he made the all-star team- stopped working as hard, became arrogant, and an a**hole. Things can get to your head, but he still has chance to learn from this down year and get back on the right path.

Local kid who has become a self absorbed chucker, a point who doesnt make his teammates better. Has obviously let a little fame get to his head , thinks he's an Iverson but he's not. Right now, Liliard is the better young player.
