That angle doesn't show it clearly, but the part that looks like a double dribble is actually just his left hand hitting the ball towards the back court. This video has a better angle. Skip to the 32 second mark.

Kerr's reaction is perfect. From "wtf are you doing" to "can only laugh at that ridiculous bullshit working."

Kyrie fucking Irving!

57 points on 20 for 32 from the field 7 of 7 from the three-point line and 10 of 10 on foul shots. That boy good

He was nice and humble in the after game interview saying all the credit goes to his teammates and how they were just really executing well on offense. Amazing solo performance, but wouldn't really call that impressive offensive execution to simply have him and Bron jacking up shots and forcing it one-on-one with standing around the three point line or on the bench. They made some amazing [bad] shots, though.

You should pull up youtube of Kobe's 81 point game. It's the very definition of this. He's going 1 on 5 and just draining everything. Not even trying for good shots. It's beyond impressive and horrible all at the same time.

Disagree. The Raptors were playing a ridiculously awful zone defense and Kobe was getting alot of easy shots.

ESPN was talking today about the rediculous amount of offense the starting 5 of Cleveland generate when they are all playing. Any time Lebron is part of the equation there is a great chance of going all the way but this team is scary good. I would love to see a Cleveland team win something. Maybe even a couple of times to make up for the horrible Browns. I'm not even really a fan except of good basketball.

ATL @ GSW tonight. I'm pumped. Hopefully it has a better ending than last time. I think the W's are really looking forward to this one judging from their lackluster performance against the woeful Lakers on Monday.

Great loss by the Knicks losing to a team with seven players(we had eight technically but we signed a guy because he was close enough to get to the arena). Tanking at it's finest!

He's never had a 50 point game until now? That surprises me. Figured he'd have one or two under his belt.

Yeah it was surprising to me too.

It couldn't have happened on a better night though. Rockets were honoring the back-to-back 1994 & 1995 Championship teams. Hakeem, Drexler, Rudy T, among other players and team personnel of that era were in attendance last night.

Meh, this is a pretty huge excuse. I doubt he does unless the players push for his removal.
