In the middle of a #DeepStats Twitter show, as I went through Kyrie Irving's advanced stats, I kept seeing a name pop up higher than him in many categories.

Coach Nick delves through stats and video to pick apart the differences between Cavs star Kyrie Irving and Isaiah Thomas of the Sacramento Kings. The findings may surprise you.

Here’s our chance to take a minute, step back, and look at how these two players really and truly compare. #YOUIN
