sounds almost dumb to say but people genuinely forget how massive and instrumental he was to the 3-1 comeback in 2016, like this dude knows clutch, he’s somehow been underrated after putting up 40 point games in the brightest moments

Got further than KD and didn’t get a choice on where to go

Kyrie is low key repairing his career reputation in Dallas. Man is clearly an all time great

The Mavs 2024 playoffs in Kyrie’s redemption tour!

I was critical when he first joined the Mavs but thank god I was wrong

Kyrie saved the Mavs tonight. Just a spectacular second half. Don’t even know what to do but shake my head and laugh at the stuff he does. The trade for him was highway robbery.

Kyrie is 13-0 in closeout games 😤

His game is very well-rounded. Like a sphere.

He’s such a joy to watch.

2nd half kyrie is insane and if he can continue this against okc it will make it even better
Dymatizeee

Wow and LeBron has an insane closeout record too. When they were on the same team they must have destroyed. Let’s check.
**2015**
Game 4 vs Boston: won by 8
Game 6 vs Chciago: won by 21
Game 4 vs Atlanta: won by 30
**2016**
Game 4 vs Detroit : won by 2 (oops)
Game 4 vs Atlanta : won by 1 (oops)
Game 6 vs Toronto : won by 26
Game 7 vs Golden State : beat winningest team of all time on the road when Draymond had 32 points on 15 shots. (by 4)
**2017**
Game 4 vs Pacers : won by 4
Game 4 vs Raptors : won by 7
Game 5 vs Boston : won by 33
Total record (10-0) average margin of victory (13.6)

If Kevin Pelton had to re-re-grade the Kyrie trade now would the Mavs make it to a C-?

I’m the only one confused by this wording? Closeout game to me implies that a team has the chance to finish off the series. But is McMahon only counting the times that Kyrie’s team had that opportunity? Like if Kyrie’s team is down 3-1, that’s still a close out game isn’t it? It would make more sense if he specified “in series where his team had the opportunity to close the series”.
