Cavaliers' Kyrie Irving named Kia Rookie of the Year | NBA.com

I am a big fan of him. Well deserved. With some luck in the draft he can be a contender or at least make the playoffs next year.

Not surprised at all. Very well-deserved. This is just the start of an extremely bright future for Irving. Congrats to him and the Cavs organization.

Already better than John Wall.

Not only is he a great PG, but the guy is clutch as hell too.

 

[Axl Rose]

well deserved

if rubio didnt get injured he woulda had a case.....his numbers might not be as good as kyries but he had wolves flirtin with the playoffs...after he went down wolves weren't the same

I'll be the first to admit I was extremely critical on Irving coming out of Duke. With his limited playing time in college, I figured it was going to take him quite a bit longer to adjust to the speed of the NBA. He was spectacular at times this year. They're one more good draft away from jump-starting their rebuilding process. A core of Irving, Thompson, Varejao and Gibson isn't too bad. If they are able to add either Bradley Beal or Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, they very well could make a push for the eighth seed next year. A full training camp would do that team wonders.

still pissed we only got him for 11 games....damn he is good

It was either him or Rubio the whole way. He's a heck of a baller.

KI is legit. I was hoping Rubio could make the running a lot closer, but he was Derrick-Rose'd in the regular season.

Already better than John Wall.

Exactly.
Well deserved, I'm a big fan of him.

I'm happy for the poor Cleveland sportsfans, and I like how he told the camera people to make sure that they got a good shoot of him representing his Cleveland Jersey.
He seems proud to be a Cav and wants to make them relevent again.

But ill bet Cav fans are more excited about Lebrons latest choke lastnight. :shrug:
