The Dallas Mavericks went the extra mile to make sure Kyrie Irving would stay. They signed him to a huge contract at the beginning of the NBAās offseason to shut down all doubts about his future with the team.
Needless to say, the Mavs continue to be Luka Doncicās team, but Mark Cuban knows no one can win on his own. Thatās why he wanted to take some major pressure off his shoulders.
However, as good as both players are on their own, Los Angeles Lakers legend Byron Scott still isnāt sold on how they could mesh and be at their best together on the court.
Byron Scott Doesnāt Think Doncic And Kyrie Can Coexist
āI think Dallas has got a really good team but I still think itās going to be hard for J-Kidd to kind of figure out how to use Kyrie and Luka together,ā Scott said. āBoth guys are very dominant with the ball, so itās going to be really hard for him to figure out how to play those guys together, as a team, but they got some talent.ā
āDallas is going to be a good team this year,ā Scott added. āI donāt think theyāre going to be a force in the West, itās just too many great teams. But Kyrie Irving is one of the most talented players Iāve ever seen.ā
