Kyrie Irving went at the teeth of the Chicago Bulls defense and finished at the rim to pull his Cleveland Cavaliers within three of the Bulls. 

Kyrie Irving does not have a lot of playoff experience, but the 23-year-old has looked like a battle-tested veteran on Monday night.

Irving has done all he can do to help his Cleveland Cavaliers hang with a hungry Chicago Bulls team in Game 1, making huge play after huge play.

Irving’s latest great moment came with 8:56 left in the game when he attacked the teeth of the Chicago Bulls defense and finished at the rim for an And 1 that pulled the Cavs within three of the Bulls.

Take a look at Irving’s impressive drive below:

You have to love the aggressiveness and fearlessness from Irving there. This is a guy that doesn’t appear to be frightened by the big stage.

If Irving can perform like this for the rest of the series, the Cavs will have a great chance of moving on to the conference finals.

Irving averaged 21.1 points, 5.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game during the regular season.
