To bring everyone on the same page – both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were linked to different moves in the initial weeks of the current season.

Durant answered the question of how Nets have managed to bring back all their puzzles in their given place, Because we was together regardless. I think coming into the training camp, we understood that it’s going to be a lot on us from a media standpoint, from just the noise in general around our team, so I think that made us tighter once camp started.

“So we was able to take the Kyrie stuff and move in stride because we were already stuck together before that. We started to win some games, started to get better as a team, and do some things out there that work for us. And now it seems like everything was patched all together, but it felt like it was always cool, to be honest.”
