They SHOULD be able to cause huge problems for teams with any defensive liabilities. But if we’re being honest, we have to strongly consider that at least 1 of them isn’t above being an asshole and ruining this thing for selfish reasons.

Ie: if Harden really is out of shape, can he turn it on, evade injury, and understand that this shit isn’t gonna be Club Harden (professionalism, hard work, you’re gonna get told to do better at certain shit, you’re not gonna get to dribble in one spot like a jackass to rest 8 possessions in a row without someone cussing at you, etcetera)?

Bigger ie: is Kyrie mentally going to be willing and able to come back and do the work to make this work?

Biggest Ie: is there ANYONE there who can and will say the right cuss words in the right order and tone to get/keep this train on the tracks? Are we assuming that KD is gonna be down to babysit these dudes and convince them that they’re all bitches if they don’t at least show up and show out on the East? Is KD’s momma gonna do it? Steve Nash? Someone else?
