Guy is looking good. Can't say the same for John Wall down in D.C.

Irving has looked very good. He's so quick getting to the rack and he's so good at using spin off of the backboard when he drives down the lane.

He's got the Cavs off to a 6-6 start and they look like they could compefirths the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference.

Kyrie is putting up very good numbers early in his rookie campaign. His shooting percentages are very good for a guard, especially a rookie guard. He's only averaging 27 mins/game through his first 12 games.

If he ends up playing about 40 mins/game, as most good young starters play in the NBA, his numbers would translate to about....

25 PPG, 7.5 APG, 4.5 RPG.

If that in fact happens, and Kyrie stays healthy, he'll not only be the Rookie of the Year, he'd also potentially be an all-star.


The future looks bright in gloomy Cleveland.
