Last night, against the irresistible Suns for two months, the Nets suffered a 5th loss in a row, and here they are 6th in the Eastern Conference. The absence of Kevin Durant weighs very heavy, and the Irving-Harden duo is only present outside for the reasons we know. In fact, the Nets’ “Big Three” is only theoretical so far, and a reporter asks Kyrie Irving if he and his teammates are thinking about it…
“I just hate answering that question. We think about it every day. For us, it’s not short term. We think about it in the long term, and on the ways that it sticks all three together ” responds the Nets half-time point guard. “When I talk about a trio, I don’t exclude the others, but we know that the energy comes from the three of us. As James said last year, few teams can stand up to us when there are three of us on the pitch. This is how we trust ourselves. “
Unfortunately, between the injuries of some and the lack of vaccinations of the other, this trio is almost never together on the field, and Irving recognizes that this is obviously a problem.
” We only played a few matches together. I don’t even know if we played more than 10, or something like that… But it’s on our wish list, and we just have to be patient, and not lose confidence. At some point all the pieces will fit together“.
