Is Kyrie being hunted on defense actually that bad? He's been holding up pretty well from what I've seen so far. The 1st quarter lineup with DJJ is pretty mid but they've just been trash every 1st q for whatever reason. He has plenty of lineups with a moderate amount of minutes where the Def Rtg is good. Small sample size and all that but his lineups with Green & Lively are great. These lineups being used are pretty noisy anyway you need to bring in the Off Rtg of the opposing lineup or something. Kyrie seems really bad so far with DJJ if you want to go off of these.

Seems like the roster that a lot of people wish for would just end up being the Toronto Raptors. Very mediocre play-in level team but damn they sure do got a lot of long athletic defenders without much skill to go along with it. The Bucks just gave up Jrue for Dame and Jrue is a guy lots think is perfect, both 33. He's a championship level supporting guard but I think we're fine with Kyrie tbh. Definitely would rather have Kyrie over Jrue 100% anytime Luka is out or sitting on the bench.
