Sports talker Shannon Sharpe, the former NFL tight end, gave his take on the Brooklyn Nets' situation after the team traded Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

Sharpe added that it didn’t make sense to him why the superstar combinations didn’t work. He mentioned the Nets previously going after Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce. Once that failed, the team broke up a young core behind D’Angelo Russell to go after Durant and Irving. "But you can’t blame them," Sharpe told Fox News Digital."You’re talking about two elite-level players. Kevin Durant is a transcendent historical player. Kyrie Irving, we know he’s a walking bucket, one of the most skilled offensive players we’ve ever had in the game. So, I don’t fault them for moving off some of those players to get those two guys back and think you can have a championship team. And then you move other pieces to get James Harden.
