?Hasn?t Really Have Much Success Without LeBron (James)?: NBA Analysts Reignite Kyrie Irving-Damian Lillard NBA Top-75 Debate

The NBA announcing their top 75 players of all time stirred a series of debates, as the list didn’t include a few superstars. One such exclusion was Kyrie Irving, the former teammate of LeBron James. The inclusion of the likes of Damian Lillard over him sparked arguments amongst the NBA fraternity.

Two analysts of the league opened up about this recently as they took a comparative approach. The NBA personalities raised their standpoints as the Top 75 debate gained momentum.

The rekindled controversy

In the latest episode of The Odd Couple,?Chris Broussard and Rob Parker compared the two superstars of the modern era.?“Kyrie vs. Dame a close call,” Chris stated, highlighting that both of these players shared a nearly similar legacy. “Kyrie is the more sensational player,” he added, pointing out the Dallas Mavericks guard’s basketball skills.

Kyrie had a major upper hand over Lillard as he won a championship with LeBron James. Addressing that, Broussard said, “He hasn’t really have much success without LeBron,”?diminishing the 31-year-old’s leadership qualities. He then emphasized that the Portland Trail Blazers had better individual achievements.

Parker jumped in with his argument that it was because of Irving’s iconic shot in 2016 that the Cleveland Cavalries won a championship. “Some people consider him the best finisher at the rim,”?he added to highlight why Kyrie deserved to be in the Top 75. This makes us wonder one thing.

How good was Kyrie without LeBron James?

Uncle Drew entered the NBA as the first overall pick in 2011. Before James rejoined Cleveland in 2014, Irving had to hold the fort. Before teaming up with the King, Kyrie was already putting up over 20 points per game alongside career-high steals.

Since leaving the team, he has been impressive time and again but failed to win another championship. A huge complaint about his contributions has been the off-field noises he often brings into a team.
