‘See y’all in 2022 if James Harden joins Nets’: Former Lakers star predicts LeBron James and co. will concede NBA Title

With all the rumors about a Harden trade to the Nets swirling, we heard Josh Hart chipping in with his take on the possibility.

Adding Harden to the roster would make the Nets the de facto superteam of the league today. They have already acquired Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving as free agents in the summer of 2019.

All 3 of these superstars are more than capable of taking up any role within an offense. Backed by the basketball brains of Steve Nash, they would be a handful for any team looking to beat in 4 games out of 7.
