“#Kyrie Irving can’t wait to complete Nets’ Big 3<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Steve Nash, Kevin Durant and James Harden have imagined the possibilities for the Nets, how lethal they can be when Kyrie Irving returns from his personal leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wednesday in Cleveland, it is expected to become a reality, and Irving sounded just as eager as his coach and superstar teammates to see what the three in-their-prime perennial All-Stars can do together.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very exciting just to have James here,\u201d he said over Zoom on Tuesday in his first public comments since stepping away. \u201cIt\u2019s just really exciting, just to be able to play with great players that have just been here in the league for awhile, have been through ups and downs, the peaks and valleys.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSo you know James is aligned with us in terms of just experience, and adding that to our locker room is going to be great for us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

After averaging 27.1 points and 6.1 assists in seven game<\/a>s, Irving missed the next seven contests. While he was away, the Nets landed Harden from the Rockets in a three-team deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since Harden joined the Nets, they are 2-0, with victories over the Magic and the Bucks, one of their chief competitors in the Eastern Conference. Harden averaged 33 points and 13 assists in the wins, while Durant produced 42 points against the Magic and 30 more in the victory over the Bucks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now Brooklyn is adding Irving to the mix, creating a trio of elite scorers with 24 combined All-Star Game app<\/a>earances among them. It could take time for the three players to get comfortable playing with one another, Nash warned. While Harden and Durant could lean on their past experience playing together with the Thunder, this will be new for Irving, playing with another ball-dominant player such as Harden.\u00a0<\/p>\n
