If the Nets thought their Big 3 didn’t have enough time together last year, this season is going to be far, far worse. If it happens at all.
These Nets still claim their aim is a title. If no New York City mandates change to let Irving play and Simmons misses this upcoming three-game trip, the Nets are going to overcome a historically short runway to win that ring.
“It’s just health. We haven’t played with each other yet. So just getting on the floor with everybody, we’ll figure out what we need to do to learn and fix things we need to do. We just got to get on the floor together.”USA TODAY Sports; N.Y. Post: Charles Wenzelberg; Jason Szenes “The great thing is that Steve will be in health and safety protocols for just a certain amount of days, and he’ll be able to handle those questions. I’ll be by his side in case he needs any advice from me,” Vaughn said.
The 2000-01 Lakers won after Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal and Derek Fisher had logged just 10 games together. The Mavs won a decade later with Dirk Nowitzki, Caron Butler and Jason Terry together for just 231 minutes, or 5.9 percent of game time. And while Simmons isn’t guaranteed to supplant Seth Curry as the third scorer, the point stands.
