CLEVELAND, Ohio – Kyrie Irving's magical year continues at the Olympics in Rio.
Irving would be credited as the author of "The Shot" if we didn't already associate the title with a far less happy time and place.
You felt watching Game 7 grind to a conclusion that Irving could be the difference – or at least I did. He was the one player on the court who seemed easily capable of getting a shot off to his liking.
His work around the glass was a beautiful blend of geometry and art.
Now, he goes to summer camp with Team USA where he gets reunited with Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski.
