This season, the Nets are undoubtedly a huge failure. Not only did they lose Harden, but got Simmons who didn't play a game, they also almost didn't make it to the playoffs. Although They still made it to the playoffs through the play-offs, but were eventually swept out in the first round, becoming the only team to be swept this season.
Not only that, with Durant making a trade request, Irving is also likely to be traded next, which means the Nets will also end in failure in the past three years, not only have they failed to score In the finals, we will win the championship, but we will also lose the Big Three one after another and have to rebuild.
In terms of lineup, the Nets are actually very strong, especially the Big Three, who are fully capable of winning the championship. However, due to injuries and Irving's personal reasons, they did not meet expectations in the end, and they were still far behind. For Irving and Durant, with Harden as a helper, they still achieved nothing, which shows that their cooperation also failed. Harden only stayed with the Nets for one year before requesting a trade to leave the team. .
It is worth mentioning that Irving and Durant have cooperated with two superstars, James and Curry respectively, and both have achieved success and won championships. Irving and James have worked together for three years, reaching the finals in each of the three years and winning a championship. Durant and Curry also worked together for three years, and both reached the finals and won two consecutive championships.
In addition, in 2017, Irving and James also met Durant and Curry in the finals. Due to the stronger overall strength of the Warriors, the Cavaliers lost to the Warriors and missed the championship.
The cooperation between Irving and James and Durant and Curry were very successful. However, after the two of them left James and Curry respectively and joined forces, also took three years, and it can be said that nothing was achieved. Not only did they not win a championship, they also failed to reach the finals, and they did not even reach the Eastern Conference finals. Therefore, it is undoubtedly a very failure, especially compared with their achievements when working with James and Curry.
From this point of view, Irving cannot do without James, and Durant cannot do without Curry, otherwise it will be difficult for them to succeed. Of course, Irving and Durant are also very important to James and Curry, but they are not inseparable. does not have Irving and Durant, and James and Curry have also won championships.
