Report: Art Modell Denied Entrance Into Pro Football HOF
February 2, 2013While We’re Waiting… Super Bowl Halftime Show Facts, PER, and Michigan Catfish
February 3, 2013Kyrie Irving happened, once again. Another huge fourth quarter from the 20-year old. I’d recommend fast-forwarding to the one-minute mark to see the dagger-like damage Irving does to Russell Westbrook, but the bevy of lay-ins over outstretched arms coupled with his first dunk of the season are too good to miss. This kid is special.

Freaking awesome.
That…. made me moist……
Derrick Williams is averaging 9 points and 4.5 rebounds a game this year, just in case you forgot who the best player was in the 2011 NBA draft (shakes head in embarrassment for wanting Williams over Irving).
Am I the only one who remembers when palming the basketball was considered illegal?
(grumble, grumble, grumble)
can’t believe how little love the Cavs get from national media. ESPN def gives Kyrie his due, but really just glossed over the game.
Oh wait – they had hour number 725 of super bowl coverage to go to. how boring to hear Trent Dilfer talk about football.
I wonder when ESPN will start the “Kyrie Irving to big market team” talk? It really has to bother them that he plays for Cleveland.
That kid’s got the best palmover dribble since Allen Iverson, I’ll tell ya hwhat.,
I hear that!
Ooooh…since AI…we are walking sacred grounds here, lol.
yeah, these guys never watched Rondo dribble. i don’t think he ever took a dribble without palming it over.
crazy that he decided to take another pull-up 3pter in that situation and nailed it. not like Westbrook was giving him a ton of room either unlike the Toronto game. this kid is crazy.
The first step is admission. The second step is enjoying the heck out of this kid. Another packed house and insane crowd at The Q. Love it.
Sidenote…
As cold blooded as KI was at the end of the 4th, it was Speights who was doing the killing in the beginning of the quarter to keep it close.
He had that face up jumper all day and the dunk in the 4th really got the team and crowd primed for Irv to come in and take over.
They made a nice 1-2 punch.
The moves he broke out last night were insane, especially that two step across the lane with the lefty finger roll finish. My god that was pretty.
I liked hearing how Irving admitted he wasn’t interested against Detroit and how it would never happen again. Oh and this game against OKC was one of the best.
HE IS SO GOOD
