Will the Brooklyn Nets be able to figure it out?

On paper, there might not be a more talented team than the Brooklyn Nets. They have three of the most dynamic scorers the NBA has ever seen but many have been quick to question whether this trio of scorers will be able to fit together offensively and play enough defense to win a championship.

So far, the returns have been mixed. Since the trade, the Nets are 3-2 and lost back-to-back games to the Cleveland Cavaliers before getting back on track on Saturday night against the Miami Heat. Their offense is going to be unstoppable, assuming they can feed off each other consistently.

I suppose the questions come on the defensive end and whether they could coexist in the locker room. The verdict is still out on both of those and the Nets are currently still in the honeymoon stage. We’ll check back on the Nets in a few more weeks.
