Kyrie Irving's dazzling drives deserve a classical music soundtrack, Cavaliers teammate says

CLEVELAND: When Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving is driving to the basket like he did Tuesday night, teammate Richard Jefferson believes his grace, athleticism and jaw-dropping dribbling skills deserve a soundtrack.

And Jefferson didn’t hesitate to pick the genre.

“It’s one of those things whenever he’s moving it seems like there should be classical music playing,” Jefferson said. “(With LeBron) it feels like it’s rock music. With (Irving) it’s so smooth and so slick, we don’t know how he’s going to finish.”

Irving’s postseason brilliance continued in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Toronto Raptors at Quicken Loans Arena.
