The playoffs are in full swing this season, and with durant and Irving's Nets swept out by the Celtics, another team that was favored by fans before the start of the season ended the season. Previously, the Lakers ranked eleventh in the West and did not enter the playoff game, and now the Nets have been swept in the first round of the playoffs, which is very unexpected by fans!
The 3 big pairs that were once formed in the summer of 2019 have all ended the season! In the summer of 2019, George and Leonard announced their joining the Clippers, Irving and Durant announced their joining the Nets, davis was traded to the Lakers to form a core duo with James, these three duo are favored by many people, but for now, only the combination of James and Davis is a success!
In these three pairs, James and Davis have won a championship, which is already a great success for the Lakers. Although they only finished eleventh in the West this season, the whole season seems like a joke, but this does not erase their previous championship results. And from the current point of view, they are the most successful of the three pairs!
Then there's the duo of Durant and Irving, who haven't had too good results since their combination, and last season Irving was injured in the playoffs and they lost to the Bucks. This season they were swept away in the first round of the playoffs, which is indeed very disappointing, and the pair is really not a success at the moment!
The Clippers' duo has always been highly anticipated, and they also reached the Western Conference Finals last season, but Leonard's injury left them helpless. Leonard hasn't played all season this season and doesn't know what kind of state the next season will be, will the duo still have a chance to compete for the championship?
