Winning a championship this season will do wonders for the Brooklyn Nets’ big three’s individual legacies.

Heading into the postseason, the Brooklyn Nets are expected to be heavy favorites to come out of the Eastern Conference and win the 2021 NBA Championship.

If this team is healthy, there aren’t many teams that could go toe-to-toe with this team’s star power and offensive punch. The trio of James Harden, Kevin Durant, and Kyrie Irving might be the best offensive top three any team has ever had on its roster in NBA history. The only doubts revolving around this team centered around things that they, for the most part, can control.

The biggest questions surround this team are whether they can remain healthy and whether they can play good enough defense to win a championship. That’s it. If this team is healthy and engaged on both ends of the floor, it’s over. This team is too talented to fail if they’re healthy and clicking on the defensive end.
