If your name is Kyrie Irving, doing extraordinary things on the court is just another day. The Dallas Mavericks were facing the reigning champions Denver Nuggets. The match was tied with just a few seconds left on the clock. Irving decided to take matters into his own hands, especially his left hand. His left hook shot was a buzzer-beater and helped the Mavericks beat the Nuggets.
The reactions have poured in from all over the world. Not just fans, legends of the game, and rival players have shared their excitement. Damian Lillard also appreciated Kyrie Irving in a tweet. His tweet was used for debate on the Run It Back show, where the veteran Chandler Parsons also agreed and said: “impossible to guard.”
Damian Lillard tweeted about what he just saw saying,’ Kyrie is the most skilled MF ever bruh.'” Chandler Parsons replied ” I, yeah, I agree. I think he’s the most fun. Like when you watch him play, it’s insane that he can move and do those things with the basketball in his hand. We all know how well he can handle the basketball and dribble and how it’s poetry in motion.”

It was a 24-point performance for Kyrie Irving, and all this while he was observing Ramadan. But what was truly impressive was the impact of Luka Doncic. He finished the game with 37 points. His 3 points at the end tied the game and set it up for a grandstand finish, which Irving obliged.
Kyrie Irving can do it all
Parsons continues how Kyrie Irving is the master of all. Which makes it impossible to guard against. ” They always, you always hear that term when you’re talking about Kyrie Irving. But yeah, there’s nothing he can’t do on the golf course. He’s so smooth, he gets to his spots, he could shoot, he can score, he’s got the ball and a string. So, he is definitely respected from players and hoopers that know the game. Because he’s just impossible to guard and he is just dead nice.”
Lou Williams also chimed in with his thoughts, calling Irving the most skilled of all time. ” The degree of difficulty that he makes things look so easy, right? Whether he’s finishing at the rim dribbling through defenses to get to one of those tough finishes, one of the most skilled of all time.”
This performance from Kyrie Irving proves he and the Dallas Mavericks are more than ready for winning the ultimate prize.
