      because Texas isn't new york, like at all...Kyrie knows there are benefits not only to playing for an organization like Dallas, but also to living in a state like Tx as oppossed living in other states like New York and Massachusetts...where politics seem to wanna control every aspects of your life as opposed states like Texas...Kyrie doesn't seem to be the type of person to bow the knee to people telling him what he can and can't do in a :"free" country. There's a lot of factors that go into making that decision... and which also make a difference in being able to feel comfortable on and off the court.

  • @alvinmutuma1188
    @alvinmutuma1188 Před 6 měsíci +1

    BEST WAY to guard LUKA,,, STEP 1 allow him to have a good game,,,,, he will score 40 on you but he eliminates his teammates too,, he is a one man offence,, slows down the tempo of his team,,and this is good for you since his teammates will be inactive from watching him take the ball from his half, dribble past you maybe make a shot,,and this mentally and physically doesn't warm up the other 4 to the speed of the game,,,now STEP 2 make plays that attack him on defence ,,LUKA isn't a terrible defender but by attacking him you get two things you make him tire during the late clutch stages of the game making his decision a bit shaky, hence becomin less lethal,,, two he has to involve now his inactive team mates but they are inactive. if you think I am inaccurate look at the 2022 western confrence finals,, mavs were better when Luka was out and Brunson was incharge of offence,,, or this season first games KYRIE IRVING is shooting bad percentages from the 3 why ( remember it is KYRIE somebody who is trusted to take a game 7 3p in the finals)? you have the best dribbler playing like a power forward standing on the corner waiting for opportunistic shots,,, Luka is avaraging almost 38 though,,,,but is the 38 good for the rest of the team? Unlike with somebody like STEPH or JOKIC who might avarage alot of points but actually involve every member of the team keeping them active

    • @Emefak
      @Emefak Před 5 měsíci +4

      @@Emefakyes he is incredible I am even a big Luca fan but it is a true problem that very heliocentric playmakers tend to face for example Kobe and Jordan did all the work and when it came to the point where they needed there teammates they were not locked in when they started to involve them more both offense and defense improved because they felt more motivated and with Luca he has the ball even more because he is the Point Guard. I genuinely think Luca is the best or second best player on the planet when we are talking about ability but his style is a problem many great players face and it can often hurt teams.
