The Brooklyn Nets are an offensive powerhouse. They have three elite superstars in Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden. They are one of the favorites for the NBA championship, and they are viewed by many as a near-lock for the Finals. Their play since the James Harden trade has been astounding, and they look like they are building chemistry.
Kendrick Perkins has stated that for the Brooklyn Nets to get better, they need to involve their role players more as they haven’t had the best ball movement when the big three were on the floor.

It is true that you have to get your entire team involved to win a championship. Every single player in the rotation is important and has a part to play in the championship run. While superstars offer the main scoring component on a team, sometimes they need other players to hit shots. Even Michael Jordan had Steve Kerr.
There is no reason to think that they won’t eventually figure it out. James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant are all elite playmakers who can set up their teammates. James Harden in particular has been focused on involving his teammates, averaging double digits in assists on the season. Their offense is one of the best in the NBA, and it is only a matter of time before everyone on the roster is synced up.
