Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 3937776, member: 767"] In a different world where the timing of the transactions was different, I've wondered if the Nets would've been better off with say Durant and Harden, and then not going for the third star and keeping the other depth they traded away to get Harden. So basically, if they never did the Harden trade, but instead it would've been for Kyrie, and they would've built around KD and Harden? Confusing enough for you? Basically Harden is a level above Kyrie, so while I think they were smart to make the Harden trade, I wonder if the construction of Harden/KD + assorted depth is better than the Big 3 with the lesser (though still solid) supporting cast. When the trade first went down, I think I was on the side of saying you'd rather have the big 2 and depth, but honestly, they still have some pretty good depth now, and you have 3 guys, so you can lose one and still be alive.
