Kyrie Irving. Went from hate to neutral after listening to a long twitch stream from him where he explains all that was going on in his life from the Cavs trade to the end of his time at Boston.

tldr He felt snubbed from NBA awards while on the Cavs despite putting up his best numbers. He suffered depression after a close family member died. He had a months long, incapacitating infection. He had a big Celtics trade planned that fell through because of reasons behind the scenes, which is why he initially said he was committed to Boston and then left.

I can't forgive him for the anti-vax, anti-galileo, and NOI shit. But I can at least sympathize with all the criticism he's received for the things outside of his control.

Should the Utah Jazz retire Giddey's jersey?

Imagine paying a University for 4 years so that you could ask those dumbass questions in a locker room.

 

I'm too busy watching Sixers/Celtics/Bucks games to review the Pistons, so I figured I would ask the experts. Bust or let him cook?

Refs didn't call jump ball because Joe has demonstrated he can't jump.

I almost believed you appreciated legends until you started quoting advanced statistics.

AD over Dame is fine. The rest are wrong. Your list just shows you have recency bias and didn't care to learn about NBA history, so me commenting here isn't going to fix that.

Melo is absolutely top 75 player, he's #9 all-time scoring and is one of the greatest isolation scorers the game has seen.
