    # This is their super bowl… this is just a normal game for us

    He sold tonight to, he’ll back on Thursday though fs

  3. StefonDiggsHS

    Kyrie had to play like absolute ass and he did lmao

  4. CheekyFifaCunt_7

    He was really bad. In my opinion, we win this if he showed up.

  5. Shootit_Rockets

    If we assume he regresses to the mean Minnesota should win the series

  6. Historical_Simple791

    Honestly this one’s on him too had a rare bad second half

  7. americanbeaver

    6-18 for for 16 points. 4 assists. 4 turnovers.

    As a petty, irrational Dallas hater, I’m here for the unsweep.

    Go Wolves.

    I never understood this stat anyway, he definitely lost many close out games where he was the one who wouldve been closed out. Isn’t that much higher pressure situation?

    Dallas gotta be kicking themselves for not closing it out here.

  12. lost_in_trepidation

    Felt like he just kept throwing the game away.

    I’ve never seen him play this bad.

  13. Charliebitme1234

    if you counted all the closeout games he was injured in it would be like 14-14

  14. thesqrrootof4is2

    Coincidentally the Mavs are 0-3 in Game 4s this year in the playoffs

    also 2nd game 4 in a row both Kyrie and Luka played subpar for their standards

  15. Paschalls_Law

    This is such a silly stat. Why wouldn’t you count games where he was the one being closed out?

  16. sayqueensbridge

    No that’s unfair to Kyrie he thought it was a normal game

  17. RoaringPity

    he’s gonna request a trade now, amirite guys

  18. Miserable-Lawyer-233

    Didn’t he just say that this is their superbowl and it’s just a normal game for the Mavs? Kyrie should just never talk during the season.

  19. This stat was always so pointless. 10/14 of those games were with LeBron. Kyries stats in those 14-0 close out games were also virtually identical to his playoff averages.

    23.2/4.5/3.8 in close out vs 23.1/4.9/3.7 average

  20. aria-issweet

    kyrie struggled tonight. no wonder they lose but hopefully they will come back strong at game 5

  21. ionospherermutt

    Law of averages dictates he’ll definitely lose the next 3 now right? right?

  22. DryGeneral990

    So much for the greatest back court of all time.

  23. 711Buckets247

    Overrated AF stat to prop up Kyrie. Kyrie was only 14-0 because he got carried by Daddy Lebron.

  24. I like how this stat fails to point out LeBron was a huge part of that
