The trio of Kyrie Irving, James Harden and Kevin Durant have played 7 games together all season. This season has been full of injuries and off the court problems for these three you could almost think this team would be just outside of the playoff race, but that's not the case. The Nets sit as the second seed in the east. Today James Harden had a setback with his hamstring injury which means he'll probably be out until the playoffs. KD also suffered an injury on Sunday getting a thigh contusion that'll keep him out a couple games. Another blow to the team was Lamarcus Aldridge's abrupt retirement last week due to an irregular heartbeat, the blow isn't as significant as the others but it is a team not just a few guys. Kyrie seems like the only healthy superstar on the team but no one really knows if he'll play from day to day but he will be ready when it counts. Falling and staying as the second seed will give them a much more difficult road to the finals and would make for an all time series between the 76ers and the Nets.
