Kyrie Irving showed the Philadelphia 76ers no mercy yesterday. The All-Everything guard pulled off one of the more ridiculous crossover dribbles you’ll see at the expense of JaKarr Sampson.
If I had to describe it, I’d say it’s probably what Michael Scott thinks he’s doing on the court while playing hoops.

The lesson here, as it always is? Don’t try. Don’t play defense. Don’t hustle for loose balls. Don’t do anything that may put you in a precarious position ripe for a picture or meme.
Preserving one’s image takes a backseat to nothing — including a team victory.
