As if it has not happened before, we've seen some superteams already and they are successful, Lebron joined Miami and they won, back to Heat with Irving and Kevin Love, they won also, so most probably they are looking at it and they follow the same path.

These big 3 of nets can produce 30 points at an average per night, but things are different now since they'll get lower shot attempts and we can see more of their accuracy than their points due to that.

All I can say is I'm happy since East and West are now balance in terms of star players.

I do look interesting with Irving-Harden duo rather than with Irving-KD . A good ball handler plus having those penetrative drive in paint plus
having some good passes into a good 3-point or mid-line shooter? that would really be a good combination. Rockets had just lost their main star
but i would say that this is just a good call and Harden does really need some new team mates that would be mixing out into his capabilities or playstyle.

So... I placed a bet in Q2 of the 76ers vs Heat game, with 76ers to win and under 238.5 points total. Now it's very clear at this point that Heat can't catch up to 76ers, even though Shake Milton was substituted out apparently after scoring 76ers 19 points, but I guess rest your good players after they hit the ball home, right?

Under 283.5 points is something I am more worried about, last time I got my bet screwed by a single point difference, by I believe I am in safe territory today.

Why do Nets always do this? What is the point of this and why do it all over again? I mean last time they did it, they got a very old KG and Pierce and they wanted to win a championship with them, and look at how great Boston became without ever becoming a bad team, moving from the championship level team to a playoff level team easily thanks to what they got from Nets. Now Nets are doing it again, they gave up 4 picks, and 4 swaps, that means for the next 8 years they will not pick any good players from the draft unless they got very very lucky from swaps or second rounds, they need like a manu ginobili type of situation so it will be quite tough.

I get that Kyrie + Harden + Durant "if works" would be a great team, however even if it works, I doubt it would be a championship level team and if it doesn't work out and they have problems? Nets lost their future for absolutely nothing.

What more do you want to see of a team in order to consider it as a championship team?

Durant_ won a championship with the GSW.
Irving _ won a championship with the Cavaliers
Harden_ reach the NBA finals when in OKC, and Rockets reached the WCF.

These people have the talent, they are extremely good in basketball, all they need is support.

I heard this statement in youtube and they will surely be a big problem if their opponent cannot compete them on scoring since they will create a big mess in the court since  many player will get a problem to guide them since the three of them is dangerous scorer. But the issue now is on their defensive end and this concerns is their major problem but let see they still have jordan on their line up but I'm still concern about their second unit since they doesn't have strong back ups.

They are trying to make things works for the sake of getting a title.

It's a gamble since we don't know if this trio will able to provide them the ring that they really aiming. All three superstars are sscoring
champs, it's a big test for Coah Nash on how he'll be able to blend this three plus the role players that will complete the starting five.

It will really be a big test for Coach Nash on how to contain the big 3. Usually though, there could be argument that as Nash is a good player himself, even got a nod for a MVP, he knows that are the inside the mind of these 3 and probably he could understand them better and make a better fit for the team.

So yes there could be a big pressure on Nash right now, but he can pass the test and do hope to bring them in this year's Finals.

For me, I disagree. Durant, Irving, and Harden are superstars. These players will be blamed instead by most critics if they fail this year. The pressure is on those superstars as everyone is now expecting good on them. And Harden just claimed that the Rockets is not the team he can win with a championship. Expecting critics will always revive that statement once they fail.

When Miami Heat formed a big trio, Coach Erik Spoelstra didn't receive much backlash even working as a coaching staff for long compare to Steve Nash, but the blame went to their superstars instead, Lebron James, which already has lots of critics, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. The same will goes if the Nets failed to win the championship this season.

Nurkic would be a big loss since he will be out for awhile.

I think this is the time where Canter have to step up.
