Kyrie Irving, regardless of his vaccination status, is one of the best players in today’s NBA. There’s no question about that.
He hit one of the biggest shots we’ll ever seen in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals to win the Cavaliers their first championship. Not to mention he was absolutely spectacular through that entire series.
He’s a seven-time All-Star and might have the best handle we’ve ever seen. You can’t talk about this era of basketball without talking about Kyrie Irving.
But…does he have a space on the NBA’s Top-75 list? Both Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala seem to think so.
Iguodala tweeted that he thought Irving was top 20 (!!!!).
So y’all saying @KyrieIrving ain’t top 75? I agree… he top 20 at least…

Now, I will say, it’s unclear whether he was talking about today or of all-time, but the mention of the top 75 makes it seem like he means top 20 ever. Which, well, that’s quite the take.
Dragonfly Jonez quoted the tweet and said basketball players love Kyrie Irving more than most and Kevin Durant called him a casual.
Cuz u a casual

Sheesh. That’s how KD reacted to a compliment about Irving. Dude is clearly passionate about where his teammate stands.
Then, boom. Just like that, we’ve got another debate about Kyrie Irving. At least this one was basketball-related, though.
