Kyrie Irving is a magician on the court and with Kevin Durant out, Irving carried the show for the Nets on Tuesday night in a blowout win over the Jazz. The Nets are off to a 4-4 start in an up-and-down season. Their superstar point guard has been up all season so far. Kenny Anderson was another Nets guard who knew how to handle the ball and score.
