Kyrie Irving - Fantastic Finisher

Kyrie Irving is frightening. His handles are arguably the best in the league (at worst, he’s in the top 3), he can create off the dribble, and he’s a scorching sharpshooter. However, his best skill, BY FAR, is his ability to finish around the basket. He’s got everything it takes to be elite at the rim. Deceptiveness and Daring. Focus and Finesse. Composure and creativity. Balance and brilliance.
The up & under, the twisting reverse, a Kyridiculous amount of hang time, the presence of mind to use the rim to shield from a shot blocker. Whatever way you want the ball put in, Uncle Drew can get that done for you. He seems to have an innate understanding of english at the rim, but truth be told, you can find videos out there about him talking about the work he puts in. Using the Mikan drill, he figures out finishes. He practices every manner of spinning the ball, from EVERY angle, in order to be prepared for anything. His work with Micah Lancaster allowed him to expand his already absurd arsenal. You see, he isn’t just getting the ball and throwing it up. You certainly don’t get to be the MVP of a World Cup that featured Anthony Davis, Steph Curry, and the Gasol brothers (playing for the host Spain) by doing that.
Footwork. Moves. Counters. Stopping on a dime. Contorting in midair. Kyrie’s finishing mastery is less magic and more method. Yes, he’s fantastic, and yes, he finishes with a flourish, but he is fundamentals first. His preparation paves the way for the excellence we see every time he plays. He made third team All-NBA this past season and he’s only 23 years old. He’s steadily improving every aspect of his game, especially given what kind of defensive effort we saw out of him before his season ended in Oracle. He has been and will continue to be a nightmare for opposing defenses. Kyrie’s ceiling is like his ability around the rim; you think you know what can happen, but the possibilities are endless.
I should say this isn't comprehensive. These are all from the past season and I know that his first few years were highlight filled, but I wanted to focus on the 2014-2015 campaign.

Look that Balance of body in the air he has with strongest players. Fantastic!!!
I'm not a kyrie fan, but his finesse is something STUPID AT THE RIM.
How are you NOT a fan of his?
lyndell chambers 👋
Let me guess, you a Lebron fan?
Lemme guess you're not a flat earther?
best finisher in the nba, best finisher since prime d.wade my opinion
MaccBoii just off the top of my head, range and shot blocking. Kobe has always had more range, and Wade has always been one of the great weak side shot blockers in the NBA. Both were underrated distributors, great defenders, able to will their teams to championships, but I'd say probably Kobe has always been able to hit the three more consistently and Wade was as elite a rim defender as any guard has ever been.
MaccBoii you're asking who the better finisher was, both in their primes? That's TOUGH. Like, for real, that's TOUGH. Prime Wade was probably the best finisher around the basket by virtue of him having to be. Kobe was and still is one of the premier shot makers in the league (this is coming from someone who hated Kobe for a long time but has always respected him), and he's always had the unstoppable arsenal but again, Wade's J wasn't as prolific as Kobe's. Keeping in mind that the Kobe pull-up was always a threat, I'd give the slightest edge to Wade.
MaccBoii i mean no difference but kobe better 3 point shooter and d.wad better shot blocker, everything else pretty even
Ballin Too Kobe is better than Wade, but Wade is great!
Derrick Rose
BEST finisher in the league
I was seeing this in 2015 finals he kept making these layups with incredible placement
2:50 Damn Kyrie was playing 1 v 4 with 4 damn defenders and Kyrie still scores. This man is so underrated
You probably don't know NBA if you think this nigga is underrated
I swear you deserve so many more subscribers. Unbelievable content.
The real crime is why doesnt he have a layup package
+Jeff Malcolm he does in 2k16, but it's kinda shit and doesn't do him any justice
+Brian sTorm fUry He doesn't really need one, though. If you tried to put all his different layups in package it would have like 46 different moves, lol. His fancy layups are the sort where you tap the shoot button again in the middle of the basic layup and the Acrobat and Relentless Finisher perks and his 96 in driving layup kick in and do the rest. These double-tap shots miss A LOT on Superstar or Hall of Fame with most other players, but with Kyrie they go in like 55% of the time. I have a Superstar Sim GM playing with the Cavs, and because of Kyrie's 98 in acceleration coming around pick and rolls, he is ridiculously hard to stop in that game.
I know, but double tap shots are jerky af. They tried to do a good job but kyrie is just too smooth to emulate
Ninja Channel mp
Mvp Rose was a pretty finisher too !
Nah rose did acrobatic layups
I think all this year's we cavs took Kyire for granted,we miss him more than ever
Kyrie best handles and very strong argument for best finisher in the league hands down. Only reason I say there is an argument about best finisher is because other players, like Steph Curry (ugh) can finish jump shots with contact at a higher clip. At the rim, easily best finisher.
I like that ugh after you said steph haha
Jo Rel lol I admit. I can't stand Steph Curry because in a year and a half he pretty much took the league by storm. As a LeBron fan, that's not a good sight. So I don't like him, but I have to respect his game.
Jared Sykes and
He has MVP D Rose Acrobatic Layups!
Kyrie is my inspiration
this is art
Kyrie is a crazy player
I miss when Kyrie was strong. I miss the 2015-2017 Cavs... It hurts so much god
"AYE!"
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YOU SHOULD MAKE A CROSSOVER MIX
5:47 he was feeling that iverson "i was not a point guard.. i was a killer"
Have a great day
0:6 that should be a layup package in 2k bee he does that English finisher alot if u go look at the 2014 all-star game highlights he did that layup like 3 or 4 times
He is so good have a great day
AS A IRVING FAN I THANK YOU
irving very nice move in crossover.......thats my idol
Yo evin i know you have some videos waiting to be uploaded,But can you make(If u havent already) a Trevor Ariza defense compilation?My man was a ballhawk this past season in the passing lanes!
I’m not tryna hate. Because I think Kyrie is definitely the best finisher in history. But he really loves to finish with his right hand
Can you do a mix of kyrie's mid range pullup plz. I think him and kd are the best at that mid range pullup off the dribble
As God is my witness,I WILL learn this layup
Best layupper in the NBA!
Damn just amazing
I wish he could do this in 2k he's so good
How did Irving manage to get past Harden's stunning defense at 1:18? Amazing.
I knew someone would notice it too
lmao
Confuseshows nhghhyyfgg
😂😂😂😂
My fav player currently I can watch his highlights all day.
Hey I'm a recent subscriber and I enjoy all your videos and I was curious, could you possibly make a jason kidd lockdown mix? You would have enough footage to make hours long videos for him! Or even his amazing passes a little plays?
melo fan I would love to, JKidd is one of my all-time favorites, but the clips are few and far between (I'm talking HD and with original game commentary, because formatting becomes an issue). I could do videos celebrating each thing he did well (of which there are many), and I've wanted to, but again, the quality of the clips are sparse. Sorry.
Yea I knew that would be hard to do especially because of the way the footage was in his prime. Thanx anyway. Im looking forward to any new videos put up.
+Blue4ever 96 Barely any money at all (I can't really earn anything because the clips are owned by the NBA), and a variety of different programs depending on the format I get the games/video files in, but Adobe & Quicktime just about covers it.
Kyrie's nickname needs to be Smuckers because that man's jelly game is on point
Please make an MVP DRose finishing video.
I said it before will say it again Kobe + Ai = Kyrie
STOP...JUST STOP,THE AMOUNT OF DISRESPECT😂😂
***** hell no😂
***** I like kyrie a lot but I honestly am 90% sure that he won't be THAT good lmao
hes not saying he'll be as good skill wise as both those players combined.. hes saying he has their basketball skill traits but into one. dribbling/crossover ability of Ai, and the scorer mentality/ability of kobe.
kyrie is no where near Kobe and Allen Iverson .... kobe has the best post moves ever while kyrie can't post up
there's no doubt he has the best handles of the league at this moment but please don't compare this kid to the Black Manba
Kyrie is the best finisher in the NBA hands down
Gmac as a CAVS fan I disagree. Much better finishers but Kyrie is the best pg and the best finishing pg but not the best finisher in the league
Cleveland Kyrie was in a league of his own
🔥🔥🔥
God bless him and his family
He better have the best driving layup stat out of the current players in the NBA2k16.
+Jay Kenton His driving layup is a 96, but he is the only player with a 99 in handles and he has a 98 in acceleration. Pair that with gold badges for every dribbling move and the shot creator and acrobat perks, and I think they made him perfect.
+Ninja Channel He has a 98 in ball handling , Jason williams has a 99 unless they updated after the few games he's been back
Apathy45 You might be right. I am going off what I saw in MyGM, but I may have had some offensive perks making that higher from the beginning. In any event, he's got the best handles the the current NBA.
2:52 2K spin mov glitch be like 😂👌
All you hear is ooooooow... everytime he do something lmao
D Rose is a fantastic finisher as well
Pre and Post... you dont think he still is?
TheTjzf he prob don't watch just tryna say some dumb shit
I wish I could finish like him
Thats what all the ladies call me ;)
Might Be The Only Dude In NBA History I Never Seen Jump For A Rebound After A Layup Cause They Thought It Was Gonna Roll Out lmao His Layup Package Godly Smh
Kyries shirt steady untucked
best finisher in the game today. He always goes right, I don't know why defenders don't just eliminate his right and make him go left.
AJ_John Im gonna send you a video of him literally only going left and finishing. Its really no different. He is 100% ambidextrous.
czcams.com/video/vbDtBN2EzDw/video.html
Can you do Demarcus cousins post game
I'm not gonna lie sometimes he does it when he doesn't need to lol
Instincts. He's so used to countering what the defense is going to do automatically that sometimes he does it when the defense has already given up on the play.
+Ninja Channel exactly if your equiped with the moves to beat out the defense and so used to it your gonna be programed to do those moves in the paint even when your open
🍇
that jelly roll tho
i dont see steph curry doing any of this lol he does all his scoring behind the arc
This is why Kyrie one of the top 3 guards in the league. Steph usually scores behind the arc. Westbrook usually takes it to the rim. He got both. Plus his midrange
+Khalid Osman Westbrook misses a lot of layups bro, he comes in too fast sometimes.
+Tanner Owen lol ikr
Tanner Owen Dude analysing percentages doesn't mean anything. Prime example, J.J Redick has the highest 3pt percentage in the league, does that make him a better 3pt shooter than Curry?No. Same goes for Kyrie, attempts more layups and has better finishes than Curry. Much more skillful than Curry around the rim, stats don't help you know this but the old school eye test.
Dylan Kott 3>2 simple maths
D Rose is a great finisher to
Can You do a harden to howard or blake to dj alley oop compilation?
jerseytwin2 I kind of did that with a Harden passing reel & a Blake guard play video but a Blake to DeAndre compilation would be really lengthy, so I don't think I'm going to be able to make that, maybe some variation of that, but I made a list in my latest video, so you can expect those down the road.
Check out the list here: czcams.com/video/tkzDMw02r2I/video.html
The man refuses to go left handed haha but still one of the best finishing point gaurds
+Adonis Guerrier He goes left all the time, he's just much fancier with his right.
there's literally a kyrie Irving lefty wonder video on this page, he goes left more often than right
Yeah i realized that later lol
+Adonis Guerrier haha just had to make sure since I don't remember if he's actually left handed but shoots right like John wall or lebron but he plays like that driving and finishing a lot with the left like wall
+SamsonTesfai yeah I realized that w lebron and wall especially wall tho he loves the left and I was referring to the video when I said he won't go left bc there were instances where he should've gone left but still went right but I do understand that he is very versatile with either hand
With kyrie you never know which side he will layup on goddam
I would like to see Stephen Curry's finishing at the rim. Like his finger-rolls and stuff
Steph curry's a pussy he can't go to the cup like kyrie
Lord Lightskin Sure. His layups are behind the three point line though. Is that okay?
Maxmillian best comment EVER lol I'm a fan of both but there's no reason to hate
Maxmillian Savage haha
Lord Lightskin curry can't finish at the rim, that's why he dashes up bricks, notice how his 3 point attempts are 3 times the amount of 2 point attempts?
AYYY HEYYY

kyrie are the best
Easily a top 5 player in the league
better than curry
Better 1 on 1
Jelly Fam
Update????
ayy!
Thats why he's always injured like d rose. They move a lot
he has a bionic right hand
+Russell Westbrook Might be God he has 2 bionic right hand XD
When you have the best handles in the league, can finish anywhere on the court and can travel like he can without calls you'd be unstoppable
Hater you must be a Larrios fan.
No hate but he really doesn’t use his left hand that much. Like some of these shots would be smarter to use the left due to the rim angle and where the defender is. Still the best finisher in the league though, just an observation
Ben Karas that’s because I have a video entirely focused on his left hand. A few actually depending on the season
Ben Karas Left handed only video - czcams.com/video/vbDtBN2EzDw/video.html
he really doesn’t get any fouls 🤷🏾♂️
Rod Strickland 2.0
All that I can say is, that he's to nice!🏀 I mean to nasty for any body in the NBA...
Kyrie beating Drose
next kobe
7:00 yo what is splitter even doing? setting a moving pick on defense? lol
- Best lay up finisher in the NBA. Simple.
Randy Jackson naw

Maricel Santos naw
0:25 DANCING THROUGH TRUMP?
