That team was built around having 3 present superstars. When don't have that on court, they aren't good. Their record and performance says enough.

Cap. The team was built around KD and Kyrie, and before harden was even a thought everyone said , accurately, that ‘if KD is the same KD then the Nets are the favorite’. KD has been KD. The team is good enough

Those dudes were traded for Harden though. So this isn't the same team. They're missing their best shooter as well. No excuses for losing but let's not pretend this team is at full strength.

6th best shooter of all-time Harris is hurt but they added the 5th best shooter of all time Curry…

The other iterations are *better*, sure, but the Nets still have enough. How is Boston getting juice out of 35 year old Horford but 36 year lamarcus and 33 year old Blake can’t sniff the court. Peyton Pritchard getting buckets where’s party mills? Bruce brown doin what teams beg for 3&D. They got enough

Would help bolster everyone else if they had a real PG tho :/ …..oh that’s right but KD chose him …would help if they had a better coach…oh that’s right KD’s man’s n em said they don’t need a coach …

Not many times we get an answer to a ‘what if’ legacy wise. We got a year of pippen without Jordan…got to see Kobe without Shaq …got to see Jordan vs Drexler….this is another one, KD without GS and simultaneously seeing GS minus KD, thriving

KD failing both as a player and as a leader too. He chose to play with kyrie then couldn’t manage the relationship w/ Harden.
This is an awful awful awful breakdown.
