The Brooklyn Nets went on the road today, to play their 3rd game in 4 days. The Nets, who had been struggling a little recently, shed off their rust tonight against the Chicago Bulls. The Nets took down the Bulls in an emphatic manner, winning the contest 138-112.

This was the 16th game that the Brooklyn trio has played together. In those 16 games, the Nets are 13-3. Kevin Durant led the scoring for the team tonight, scoring 27 points and dishing 9 assists. James Harden got a double-double, scoring 25 points and dishing 16 assists. Kyrie Irving couldn’t find his shots tonight, going 4/10 from the field, scoring only 9 points. Patty Mills with 21 off the bench, and Day’ron Sharpe with 20 points helped the Nets secure the blowout win.

After the game, James Harden was asked if the team believes Kyrie can play at home. He had a huge grin and joked that he’d give Kyrie the shot.

The Nets look like a complete team wherever their big 3 play together. It remains to be seen whether the Nets’ Front Office would be okay to pay a fine in order to get their star back.
