Cole Beasley = Boston Celtics Guard, Kyrie Irving

One on one, both of these players are impossible to guard.

More from The Landry Hat

Beasley is one of the top slot wide receivers in the game, embarrassing defenders with his route running.

Much like Kyrie Irving, who crosses up his opponents in isolation.

Beasley benefits from opponents game-planning for Bryant, putting up monster numbers last season.

Irving would get buckets in mass when opposing teams doubled LeBron James, forming a great one-two punch.
