In the game, Irving wears the Celtics' No. 11 jersey. Kobe said: "Kyrie is extraordinary, he can jump hook with his left hand, he can attack off the dribble, three-threat attack. I mean, there is no weakness in his game. Most players are lucky that he is not 1.98 meters tall."
In fact, what Kobe means is that if Irving is 1.98 meters tall, he will definitely become one of the best scorers in NBA history. However, Irving, who is 1.91 meters tall, is only 25 years old. He still has a lot of room for improvement and is still a few years away from his peak. As one of the most famous scorers in NBA history, Kobe Bryant's vision is not wrong.
