Kyrie Irving has been superb ever since his shroud of controversies. He has been averaging 25.3 points per game. He spoke to the media, “Let’s just go win ballgames, that’s really what the attitude is. No more excuses, no more distractions“.

Bontemps believed that Vaughn was the reason that the team had been able to turn things around. He said, “… because this team does not resemble the team they were early on when they were flailing around getting blown out looking terrible“.

Brian Windhorst also added that Kyrie Irving, too, has also been influential in the Nets climbing the ladder in the NBA Table. He said, “I also think Kyrie is absolutely, without question purposely on his best behavior. And that really helps“.
