Kyrie on being a “1B” option on the Mavs with Luka 🗣️

you know ever since I was young I’ve always felt like I’m one of the best in the world because I’m able to play with other great players I don’t ask for the ball I demand it I will play defense I will do all the other things that don’t show up in the stat sheet and that’s always what I’ve wanted to be remembered as um everything else that people have thrown on my career has been up to them and what they’ve seen and I have to take that you know I have to take that fair criticism but how I feel as a person when I go out there is a confident mfer that will play with the best of the world I don’t care who’s out there it could be will MJ Steph Braun you know whatever team and I feel like you know if I get a few of my friends from around the way I you know hey we might not have a chance that day but you know I think uh just enjoying the game and the competition is what comes with it so that’s really what I’m getting at just enjoying the competition and enjoying uh you know the failures and the success that come into

Kyrie Irving explains why he thinks he’s one of the best basketball players in the world.

  1. This man, and of course I don’t know his every moments over the years but at least what’s in public display, he’s grown so much as a communicator. I don’t always agree with him but admire him and learn from him. Some of today’s athletes are wise, wise people!

  2. KYRIE U R one of the best. Love watching U play basketball. Keep doing what U do best and that is playing basketball. U R Simple one of the best.

  3. I was with him until he said he will play defense. But then he left Cleveland because he wanted the ball more I do better with Kyrie watching him play and not listening to him talk.

  4. He has become an ambassador for the game of Basketball. Consummate professional. Proud of this guy!!

  5. This dude is such an artist. His whole vibe and flow is just better now and I'm loving it. Good see a dude who deserves it getting his

  6. The Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James have one more NBA FINALS CHAMPIONSHIP tanks in part to Kyrie Irving. And still to this day he has not gotten the credit that he deserves

  7. Seems like he needs to be with someone great so he doesn’t have to carry a team he’s not top 5 pgs hes not even top 10 he needs some one better then him always to be able to play his game of basketball. Perfect example was him on the Celtics couldn’t get out of his own way but with the cavs he got a ring and who was on that team? He has to play with a better person he’s never grown as a player by him self.

  8. Bruh ppl was a bandwagon for kobe back than, now for you. But every true fan knows your talent and dedication. Be bless kyrie.

  9. Media as usual trying to cause division 😂. Kyrie is one of the best number 2s. He was a number 1 in Boston and it didn’t work out. Any is Kyrie’s size but he’s struggled being no 1 too this season. You can have all the skills but when you have players with skills just like you but are 5 inches taller, then you have a number 1. Steph was a number 1 but as soon as the Cavs figured them out it was gonna be over if they hadn’t called up KD.

  10. This has not been what his career has been for the most part even though it's what he's successfully doing now. He cannot reasonably expect people to think they've been wrong about him just because he stopped being the selfish team killer that he was for the years in between Cleveland & Dallas

  11. kyrie just wanted to play basketball. YOU MEDIA MORONS made all that bs noise around him! im so glad hes with us in dallas <3 we love you no matter what your personal opinions on anything is! thats freedom of speech, and im not even us citizen but the smear campaign they did, especially during this pandemic is insane to me! i hope you win the title for the mavs the 2nd time in franchise history, cause my fellow german dirk had the same mentallity! they tried to smear him also with his first "girlfriend"!

  12. People are chosen to be held high regards only if they fit the agenda, you don't make it just based on talent unfortunately.

  13. Greatest balhandler and greatest guard ever at finishing at the rim. NBA Champ Closer of the ring he won arguably was the best player of the series. I’m a 76ers fan grew up watching Allen and it’s an absolute pleasure to see someone come and take what Allen did with ballhandling to the next level. Love This dude.

  14. 🙄🥱🎓‼️

    Kyrie was on his KD, 🆕-team-every-year, trying to find a place where he could be recognized as the best on the team, while winning.

    Not until the past 2yrs has Kyrie given up on needing/wanting to be the best player on his team, & been satisfied with the soul purpose of winning.

    The 1-on-1’s 🆚 Tatum & Brown in Boston, the leaked stories of James Harden’s degradation in practices, leaving a championship team in Cleveland, all in pursuit of Kyrie becoming alpha on HIS OWN “team”.

    This “humility” we’re hearing come from Kyrie is not via his choice, but rather his own revelation of circumstance. Kyrie now realizes that organizations have only gambled on his empty promises of loyalty because of his talent, but his historic unwillingness to commit to an organization was beginning to overshadow his talent, which is the only reason I believe he’s remained in Dallas for more than one ☝️ yr 🤷🏽‍♂️

  15. This fake humble 🤡 cant stop speaking about himself in a positive light. Ive always wanted to do the things that go unnoticed. Why do constantly do the look at me sheet. It takes u waaay too much effort to score 2 pts. But we know ur a humble cool dude riiiiight ?????

  16. They go get swept Luka can’t play defense an he always getting beat off the first step, Luka Be tired asf in the 3rd look how he be running Mf be speed walking back down the court then get mad when he don’t get his way lol bro a big ass crybaby him an Lebron be crying like a Mf

  17. Kyrie has finally not only found himself. I think 🤔 with his family and spirituality and growth not only have Dallas received a great player! Kyrie is truly happy with himself, his life and this has created a genuine chemistry with the team and mentoring leadership role. Because Luka whines he still has learning and growing to do. Kyrie brings that balance and it shows I’ve never seen him smile 😀 so much on and off court. Especially while loosing. I’m happy for him💗🙏 keep going🏀
