LeVert wants to see former teammate Irving back on the court

Is it better for Durant’s all-time legacy if this Nets team is NOT a juggernaut?
If he wins in Brooklyn on a 70-win team with Harden and Kyrie firing on all cylinders, it’s another super team chip.
But if he grinds to a ring on a 52-ish win team, he gets way more credit. – 9:47 PM

James Harden is putting the stamp on this game as Brooklyn’s offense is starting to pick up. Oh lord, watch when Kyrie gets back. – 9:36 PM
