Kyrie Irving Shades LeBron, 'I Was Best Option On Every Team' Before Joining KD

The question was -- 10 seconds left in a close game, who takes the final shot?? Kyrie said it goes to the hot hand ... and then dropped this:

"One thing I've always been comfortable with is I felt like I was the best option on every team I've played for down the stretch," Uncle Drew said. "This is the first time in my career where I can be like ... 'that motherf**ker can make that shot, too!" Now, Kyrie DID hit the dagger 3 pointer in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals to help the Cleveland Cavaliers win their first title in franchise history ... but LBJ has hit his fair share of clutch shots throughout his career.

It's no secret Kyrie demanded out of Cleveland and wanted do his thing away from LeBron ... but now it seems he didn't think the 4-time MVP was a killer in the clutch.... saying he doesn't really see him as a"head coach" ... and thinks the team of KD, Nash, assistantKD agreed ... saying"It's a collaborative effort."
