Crazy thing about it is that in college he couldn’t exhibit his skill to the fullest ability due to the fact teams where playing zone defenses and his area of expertise is 1 on 1
And he was playing on a veteran team. He had to share the ball a lot with Seth, Nolan, and Singler. If Kyrie was on a squad full of freshman coach K would’ve let him shoot every play like he did with Zion and RJ. On Ks freshman teams he always let the best 1 or 2 EAT and then the rest play off them. During this era, he wasn’t like that and that’s why Duke was a lot more successful in the tournament. Nobody on this Duke team felt like a role player even tho Ky was obviously the best player.
German Sgt Major Riflemen lol true that must’ve stung even I felt bad at the time but then I remember after they went and got KD I felt no remorse haha
If you haven’t already please repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Jesus died for you and he loves you tomorrow is not promised so please accept Jesus today. God bless🙏
I remember watching him back then and thinking "He's good, but not a #1 pick. Just another short guy who can dribble and shoot" This is probably why I'm not an NBA scout lol
Kyrie always had good court vision. And could blow by defenders with ease. And set up his teammates for the easy basket. Look at how he throws the alley hoop
@@peteywilliams5166 Yeah, hindsight is 20/20.I thought he'd be a solid player at the next level, perhaps and all star, just didn't see him becoming the best ballhandler ever and a guy who finishes with either hand from impossible angles every night.
That was the beauty of watching him that year, he was just playing at a different speed and was far more accurate than everyone else every shot he took was a great shot for him. If he would have finished that year he would have for sure been player of the year
This dude is like the genius cool prodigy side character that everyone likes more than the main character. HE PLAYED 11 GAMES AND WAS STILL DRAFTED FIRST
Duke should have won the championship that year if Irving didn’t get hurt by that goon from butler. He and Jay Williams are the best players I’ve seen at duke. Yes that even includes Zion!
He was cool in college. He ain't turn all the way up until he got to the league though, his highlights from his first couple years was crazy. Makin NBA players look like kids, especially in that Team USA 2012 joint, I was in awe like oh yea he gon be craaaazy.
@@earllee9080what? he letting Kyrie be Kyrie in these highlights. This the same team that just won a national championship and he gave him the keys day 1
It’s amazing how he was the fastest person on the court but at the same time the most controlled person on the court the game was in slow motion to him …
Bruhhh I never seen a kid like this it’s almost like he was born to play ball I kno that’s a cliché term…. But kyrie is the definition of that term his moves and understanding of the game is other worldly u can practice all day every day on your handles and still won’t be as good as kyrie it’s something he has that only god can pin point lol….he played 11 games in college he only started 8 of those games witch idk what coach k was thinking there but anyway lol…. within those 11 games he did enough to impress every single nba SCOUT … his father got a phone call he was told idc if kyrie gets back healthy don’t let him back on the court at Duke HE IS GOIN NUMBER 1 his father said I sure he got more he can show y’all before the draft …. The scouts said HELL YEA WE SURE put him in the basement and lock him down there until the draft 😂😂😂😂 …. he the only player in history to have that happen … 11 games played in college gets drafted number 1 y not just go out of high school did they change that rule ????
This duke team would have won it all if they had kyrie for the whole season. They had decent chemistry to start the year but when he came back in the tournament they didn't gel. Should have been back to back titles but unfortunately it doesn't happen like that sometimes
Destroyed them man, I remember that year I was like yooo duke going back to back . . . . the the injury, man that was one of the best Duke players I've ever seen, I mean Kyrie could flat out shoot!
The fact this man only played Like 11 college games and was killing, got drafted into the nba as a number one pick, rookie of the year, he could have came straight from high school and ball in the nba
was that the Arizona Duke game where Derrick Williams showed the world what he was about??!! I don’t care how things ended up for that kid, that day was SPECIAL
Wth it didn’t look like kyrie or move like kyrie and I barely saw the killer handles, don’t tell me his handles developed over the summer when he got drafted because his rookie year he was killing the league.
Plays 11 games....still goes 1st overall.

duhh
That’s literally every player
@@eda639 Ik but his evolved greatly
Nah he could always do the same thing, the NBA is just more suitable to his more flashy style of play
I feel like he’s not showing everything he’s got. His high school handles look better than this. I feel like he wasn’t really trying

Would have had one of the greatest seasons of all time if he hadn't been injured
🎯🎯🎯🎯👈🏾
Yea they had a squad. I was surprised they played so poorly against Arizona in the tourney.
How did he only avg 4 asst ??? These highlights make it seem like he would avg way more. The passes he was making were elite
Someone one obviously could see the greatness to only play 11 games and still go #1
there is no way this guy is not in the nba top 75 players ever...what a complete stud.
Destroyed them man, I remember that year I was like yooo duke going back to back . . . . the the injury, man that was one of the best Duke players I've ever seen, I mean Kyrie could flat out shoot!
Did not need 2 go to college/ u can see he was nba ready from high school!
I think if he would’ve never gotten hurt he could’ve won national player of the year
Nobody at all
