Kyrie Irving's value was already high but since the All-Star break it has sky-rocketed and there's already talk that he'll be invited for a chance to join Team USA in the off-season.  Before the Heat faced that Cavaliers yesterday afternoon, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra spoke of the talent that is Kyrie Irving.


"I've been impressed with him since he came into the league," Spoelstra said. "To be that productive for a young player says a lot about his talent, but he also must have a very good work ethic to be able to put that all together. Not many young players are able to do that, particularly at the toughest position in the league -- the point guard position, where you have to organize not only our own game but everyone else's game....He is a heck of a talent. He can dominate a game by scoring, getting in the paint and making plays. We have to make it tough for him."
