The Kyrie hate needs to stop.

But the team as a whole shot worse than him in game 5.

Game 5 was a trash game. Both sides went into it knowing the series was over and that it was just a formality.

You aint winning games if you star is getting doubled and trippled and everyone else is throwing bricks.

In G1, G2, G3 the team was 39%+ from the perimeter once you take out Kyrie Irving's 3PA. They were only really cold in G4.

By contrast, you take out Giannis' 3PA and Milwaukee didn't have a single game over 35% from deep.

By even more contrast, Kawhi's teammates were 30% from the field.

If Kyrie didn't have help then neither did KD, Kawhi, Giannis or Harden.

This is what I mean. People are talking about how much the team disappointed, but in actual fact, these guys stepped up.

If Kyrie had the presence of mind to realise that we could have had a competitive series.
