What is the relationship between Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving?
I believe friends who have been paying attention to basketball recently will be very surprised, because a very important transaction has occurred, that is, the Rockets traded their star James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets. After the meaning of this move is achieved, it often helps to successfully form a Big Three with Irving, Durant and Harden.
The Nets were once a mediocre small team, but since the official announcement of the joining of Irving and Durant last year, the Nets have become the target of public criticism. Coupled with Durant's overall goodwill this season, just in the first few games, he and Irving performed very well. And now that James Harden has joined, the Nets' strength in all aspects will definitely rise to a higher level.
However, relevant media in the United States reported that they hope that the Blue Net will trade Irving, and also revealed that the relationship between Irving and Durant has already developed a rift. Irving made a very incomprehensible move before. He left the team without telling the team and the head coach and did not play. After an investigation, it was found that Irving did not comply with the league's epidemic prevention regulations and participated in mass gatherings. The league also punished Irving for this move.
In fact, Irving has received a lot of attention since he entered the league. Irving has always been famous for his ball-handling skills. Irving has played for many teams for many years. But Irving's evaluation of his emotional intelligence from the outside world seems to be low. And there are rumors that Irving has always been very dissatisfied with the Nets' decision to be the head coach at that time. Now Durant has ushered in James Harden. The two had briefly cooperated with the Thunder, and their tacit understanding was very high.
I believe that the fundamental reason for the rift between the two is because of Irving's attitude. Although Durant is a very honest person off the court, his attitude towards playing on the court is indeed very serious. She may not be able to understand Irving's attitude of not taking work seriously. And now judging from Harden's first game with the Nets, Harden and Durant have already performed very high-energy on the court. The Nets don't seem to be urging Irving to return to the team. The media revealed that they hope Irving will be traded to the Heat or Pelicans. I believe the Nets should also have some understanding of these rumors.
But for now, everything still has to wait until Irving returns to the team to play with the three of them and see their performance before making a decision. I hope that the three of them can make a breakthrough in the Nets and win a championship. O'Brien Cup.
