  Yeah, seems to have a greater sense of urgency to win during the regular season too. That's not the "end all, be all" but I'd rather see the Cavs 10-2 than 5-6. I don't think the Celtics roster is necessarily better than the Cavs so it seems like Stevens is doing quite a bit more, with less.

  No, it's not.
  
  He said it during the win vs the Sixers. They won that game and haven't lost since. They are 10-2.

  Not that 41% is great from 3, but that is what he shot at UCLA. Not translating at all. He'll be fine. But he needs to figure it out.

  I could've sworn it was the Cavs game, but I stand corrected.

  I actually thought it was too. He was coming back out from halftime and some Sixers fan yelled "hey Kyrie, where's LeBron?"

  His form seems to be susceptible to errors and the extra little distance may be the difference.

  Lebron’s cry on over and back was fucking embarrassing.

  Yeah, 7 big time scorers and Ball
  
  I️ thought the rookie season Jason Kidd comparison was decent...Jason Kidd did not.
  
  His shooting reminds me some of Kidd but maybe more Rondo...but both better

  Ball looks awful. That release is too slow for the NBA I think, with the athletes and length at this level it isn't gonna work

  Ironman will like this stat.
  
  List of players and number of times they had a game with stats 25:5:5 by the age of 27.
  
  
  
  That's some serious pwnage by LBJ

  And if I️ had 12 more myself...I️ would be as close to #2 and #2 is to #1
  
  Also this chart makes me sad. I️ hate how unlucky Grant Hill was with his seemingly minor ankle injuries.

  Did I miss where they reversed home and away jersey colors? Spurs are wearing their black jerseys at home and Milwaukee has their white ones on.

  Kyrie out with potential concussion and deep off bench Shane Larkin is going off

  Watching the Spurs Bucks, it's not watching like a close game then I look at the score at the Bucks are hanging in there.
