3. Clutch Factor
You won’t find many who disagree with this one. There’s a reason that the people of Cleveland have dubbed young “Uncle Drew” as “Mr. 4th Quarter.” 85 games into his career, Kyrie already had five game-winning shots. Just two weeks ago, he led the entire NBA in fourth quarter scoring. And most recently Irving hit the game-winning layup over the New York Knicks. It’s no secret, Kyrie relishes the fourth quarter. Combine that with the fact that Irving already has a much more developed jump shot than Westbrook at the tender age of 22, and the future looks bright for the young PG out of Duke University.
