Tatum is the most likely true #1 option on the Celtics, even if it is years away. there is no evidence to suggest that Kyrie is a true #1


Yes... a 23.5 PPG, 4.8 RPG, and 6.9 APG player on 49/41/87 isn't a true #1 option. You are correct in that assessment.

uhh Brogdon is putting up 15 PPG on 50/40/90 with much better efficiency, more rebounding, and less assists but he takes way less shots

just because someone puts up PPGZ doesn't mean they are a real #1 option. how many playoff games has Kyrie won without LeBron? how many playoff series has Kyrie been in without LeBron?

does it not bother you at all that this guy completely throws his team under the bus including a fantastic coach and has no accountability whatsoever?

your standards are pretty damn low

Kyrie is having his best ever season and was hard carrying us. He's been junk since all star break but hes clearly carrying some niggle injury...

Where were you a month ago posting this bullshit Corey? Really convenient time when the Celtics are in a slump and Kyrie is in poor form.

Maybe Marcus Smart?

He can light it up for sure

I said I was agreeing with you... But...

If you wanna take it a step further...

Brogdon benefits from being on a team like Giannis, and the floor spacing. He wouldn't put up those numbers elsewhere, especially if he was the 2nd or 3rd option, which is what your post is insinuating, I'm assuming?

Not too many players make the playoffs at a young age.. AD and Cousins also missed the playoffs, are they terrible players too? And also, LeBron came over, because he wanted to play with Kyrie, and Love. You can judge them all you want for their lack of playoff success, but it doesn't matter what they did in the past, but how they managed to improve from their last mistakes. In this point, LeBron wouldn't have won that championship trophy without Irving nailing that clutch game 7 shot to ice it. And vice versa for Irving too.

Also I am very bothered by Kyrie, but I also don't want him to leave. I don't like the fact he manages to say controversial shit every time he speaks, but I'm always down to ride for my players no matter how egotistical, and self-centered they are.

Also my standards are pretty low, you say? Sure.

You do realize a few months ago, you were saying how unfair the Celtics were, and that no Celtics fan should ever bitch about GSW, because we got handed a championship team with Kyrie, The Jay Team, and Hayward/Horford. But here you are now, shitting on the same player that is a huge reason for why our playoff chances are great.

Assumed your agreement "yes" was a sarcastic one given the stat line posted afterwards.

As far as the overall picture with the Celtics, they still have a full treasure chest of value.

Right now, the Celtics look like a team that has given up and is divided due to selfish endeavors and lack of leadership. Brad Stevens is a fantastic coach but he is having trouble with the personalities, which I don't really blame him for.

Ironically Kyrie's biggest problem on the court is he doesn’t take enough shots. When Smart, Jaylen and/or Rozier have near the same shot attempts as Kyrie, something went wrong. And this happens all the time.
