There seems to be no route that leads Brooklyn to any sort of championship success in the near future. It sure did seem like that not long back, though.
The Nets seemed like the superpower of the NBA to beat barely a year ago. James Harden had been newly acquired by the Nets at the time. And for a few months, it seemed like basketball would be the new talk of town.
However, the Beard got injured in unprecedented fashion during the playoffs, proceeding to have to essentially miss their entire series against the Milwaukee Bucks, which they lost.
Kyrie Irving has since gone over to the anti-vaxxer, part-time player side. The Brooklyn-based guard’s decision not to get vaccinated has had the very undesirable effect of turning James Harden against the emerging franchise of the Eastern Conference.

Reports now suggest that James Harden has a future elsewhere in the NBA. And NBA Reddit and Twitter seem blown away by the possibility that is fast becoming a reality now.

James Harden’s trade rumors seem to have put Brooklyn Nets fans on suicide watch. It is no secret that without their 3rd superstar, the team will be looked at as exceedingly unlikely contenders.
Sources: The Philadelphia 76ers are expected to pursue Brooklyn’s James Harden ahead of NBA trade deadline Thursday – and the Nets are now open to discussing a deal.

If James Harden does indeed end up leaving Brooklyn, there’s absolutely no doubt that Kyrie Irving will be the guy held responsible for all of this dysfunction in what seemed to be a paradise of offensive play.
