The Nets' Big Three have all gone wrong: Durant is injured, Harden is average, and Irving doesn't play at home!

Original/Oxygen is a metro

On Feb. 2, the Nets lost to the Suns, suffering a five-game losing streak. Although objectively the Nets have a reason, for example, four of their five losses are opponents who are super giants or are competing for the championship, namely the Lakers, Nuggets, Warriors and Suns. On the Nets side, Durant, the most stable in the team, was injured, and although Durant could only cut the group leader in the absence of Harden or Irving, if the three giants were there, Durant could maximize his role.

After five straight losses to the Nets, their record is 29-21, sixth in the East, behind the Bulls, 76ers, Heat, Cavaliers and Bucks. Although the win difference with the first Bulls in the East is only 3 games, according to the trend of five consecutive losses, the Nets' prospects are not optimistic. The Nets' prospects are not only this season, but also their Big Three era. Although Harden has debunked rumors that he has complained about Irving and Nash, the discussion of him leaving the Nets to join the 76ers has become increasingly intense.

Can the Nets still compete for the title? The answer to this question doesn't seem optimistic enough for them. Because the Nets originally had no system, head coach Nash was criticized in various ways. In some games that look like they can still be fought, Nash replaced the main player too early. In terms of role players, several balloon stars have not played. Millsap was bought out, Griffin was discarded from time to time, Mills was not in a stable state, and Aldridge had degenerated after all. So the Nets' biggest capital is still the Big Three.

But the Big Three are all in trouble. Durant is now injured and he is the Nets' lower and upper bounds. After all, even Curry is a teammate with him, and he can't threaten Durant's FMVP, which shows his strength. Although Durant relies on scoring to lead the team easily to cut the group leader, and the dependence on his teammates is relatively high, his scoring ability ensures that the team can be guaranteed at key moments. Durant was prone to injury after overloading.

In addition to Durant, Harden and Irving also have problems. Harden has been average this season, which is already the norm. Although he has had some games that can change the trend, most of them have not cashed in on talent. Of course, Harden is still the giant that many teams want, such as the 76ers. In this game, Harden shot 6-of-19, 3-of-8 three-pointers, 7-of-9 free throws, 22 points, 5 rebounds and 10 assists. The data is decent, but the efficiency, aggressiveness and playing style are not ideal.

Harden also complained that the referee treated him badly, saying that he could not touch anyone on the defensive end, otherwise it would be two free throws. Harden's move has been complained about by many fans, because Harden himself is a player who has been taken care of by the referee. Harden is still curious as to why they are improving, but they have lost five in a row.

And then there's Owen. This is a player who can help the team as long as the wrong boss is responsible for scoring. Irving is indeed the same as in the Cavaliers and Celtics in the Nets, not to rob the boss, he is sure of Durant's boss identity. But Irving has a new problem, that is, there is no way to play at home without vaccination. According to the new Mayor of New York, they will not change the rules. Irving still plays as a part-time player, but he said that it is not a good thing that the Big Three can't fit together often, and hopefully more people will come back in later games.
