This will allow Nash to actually coach and not be relegated to babysitter. What they don't realize, this will be the end of them. You don't need to be a genious to see how Durant will be jealus of Irving, because he has two guys. So he will behave even worse which will destruct the team.
KD and Irving will be interesting to watch. That's two really weird dudes thrown together. Maybe they actually like each other more than everyone else likes them and they end up coexisting!
I'm playing amature psychologist with two people I don't know, but...Irving's weirdness is a bit baffling. I can't tell where that dude is coming from. But KD just seems to be insecure, addicted to social media, and way too interested in proving himself to the public. So he might be about to get a public opinion break that could help him a bit. He's coming back form a serious injury. He's obviously the better player than Irving. So he's in a bit of an underdog role who isn't piggy backing on anyone else's already established greatness.
He might just get a break from having to argue with the public and be able to just focus on returning to form and helping a franchise that is kind of primed to be a fan favorite, being an underdog in Brooklyn (a team that folks have wanted to see become a good team for a long time).
