    More negative press for Kyrie, please: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/1...a-elite-guards

    Really hope Lowry gets the start!
    They mention Wall in this article in good light, but not Lowry. Scandal.

      You may have skimmed this part.

      Comparing Irving to the above-mentioned guards makes the relative stagnation clear. There are four guards in the league who were top five picks like Irving, played significant minutes at age 19 or 20, and who we now consider to be MVP or near MVP-level players -- Paul, Westbrook, Wall and Harden.
      Age 19 Kyle was still at 'Nova and played only 175 minutes total at age 20. Plus he wasn't a top 5 pick, more like 24th.

      The criteria is also why Curry is not in the group either.
      If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

        I do agree he deserved mention at some point...

          No mention of Durant or Lebron or DD either.

              The story is not about who's the best PG now, it's about stagnation of Kyrie, comparing him with 4 other similar high draft pick PG's from ages 20 to 24 who had MVP consideration or in the case of Wall All-Star appearances by age 24.

              Kyle was nothing like those guys - late 1st rounder, never cracked 27 MPG till his 5th year in the league, totally different career trajectory.

                              Lowry 6th behind Thomas and ROSE? what the fuck? and how is Wade 2nd?

                              DeRozan AND Lowry DESERVES to start this game the way they're playing. DeMar i guess is our best chance since Lowry for whatever reason is way behind.

                                DeMar will push past wade..Kyle is criminally low, he's the 2nd best player in the east
