Cavs look good in Detroit as rookie
adapts to leadership role
A major key for the fortunes of this year’s Cleveland Cavaliers
will be how quickly the rookie point guard Kyrie Irving learns the pro game.
Thus, last night’s win over the host Detroit Pistons was a tonic for Cavalier
fans, as Irving showed himself a fast learner.
Cavs’ color commentator Austin Carr was right on the money when he
said that Irving needs to play his game at his speed, and let the rest of the
team follow. Irving began to do that last night and the result was exciting and
positively portentous, even if it was against the Pistons team that promises to
be sorry.
