It was all just a well planned and executed masterplan to get Ben Simmons. Like a game of chess, played by the very best.
🤣 well it unfortunately worked 🤣
And he still is Ben Simmons 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I said the same thing .
😂
The most frustrating thing is that everytime they had an issue, it was solved and they were good until another thing happened and we go through the ringer again.
Miscommunication was the problem that never got solved. Both sides expected more than the other was willing to give.
Both sides thought they were being reasonable and the other side either went too far, or was not going far enough.
Ultimately, peaceful co-existence was solved at the expense of all parties going their separate ways. 🏀
As a fan of the Nets it was always something with them
Sounds like all of life tho
...
One of the unluckiest team ever in history lol
It's actually crazy to think these guys wanted Deandre Jordan over Jarrett Allen
Jarrett Allen was literally the center they needed but KD traded him away to keep DeAndre Jordan
Idk 🤷♂️ why Allen was younger faster better overall player. And he wasn't asking for an outrageous contract for being an ALLSTAR
💯🤦🏿
@@Bsfnelz20 They all became buddies during the Olympics. EVERYBODY loves Deandre Jordan but liking him is not the same as needing him. These guys didn't care about winning because they are champions already, they just wanted to have fun while making millions.
@@Bsfnelz20as a
This whole era was surreal. Two superstars go to a team because they like the culture coaching and roster-and uproot ALL OF THAT as soon as they get there. Then when it fails they leave the team dry lmao. Wow
and they were just getting on their own 2 feet after the disaster of trading for washed Celtics Legends,
Reverse isiah Thomas situation
You should've heard what Kyrie said about Kenny Atkinson. He said "Coaching is a collective effort" "We don't need a coach who makes us run on the first day of practice and tries so hard to instill a philosophy" I can't even blame Steve Nash for being a bad coach. What was he supposed to do?
Owner/management is just as much to blame, of not more for giving in to their demands
U summed it up best in these comments
In those three years....The Heat, Bucks and Celtics reached the NBA Finals and not the Brooklyn Nets. Great video.
2 of those teams eliminated the Nets too
Well I mean kd and kyrie were injured and harden didn’t get there yet during the heat finals run
which is why i’m saying suns lose to clippers
@@zezeeze12really? smellllllllsssss hate
@@zezeeze12 News just came out that PG13 might miss the enitre series so idk man
Being a Nets fan I’ve dreaded the day Dylan made this video
ClutchMcGee I waited a long time for this video I blame Joe Tsai and Kyrie for the Destruction of the Ne5w if giannis doesn't inure kyrie in game 4 Nets in 5
Same I love the nets but this hurts the harden trade hurt Kyrie was such a diva and Durant can’t win without a superstar or two
It’s been a long time coming, buddy.
Covid took this team from us. Covid doesn’t happen; this team has time to gel and we have an immediate dynasty
@@froggyspond1133so many factors went into this teams downfall, injuries and covid being the two biggest culprits.
Nets fans have been through some shit. Especially the OGs who remember them in Jersey when they got demolished in back to back finals.
Kyrie: "I was very appreciative of what our head coach did for us"
If thats how you treat someone you appreciate I can't imagine how you treat your enemies - oh wait yes I do, you pause the game and get them kicked out of games you lose
And step on a leprechaun lol😭such a sore child
It's pretty funny how Kyrie left Cleveland to be "the man" but he's been overshadowed on every team he's been on since.
Something the NBA learned from this… Just because they’re amazing playmakers, doesn’t mean that they’ll be good teammates. A player that feels they don’t need a coach, is a red flag. Lack of respect will destroy a team
Stop beating around the bush, Durant and Harden had their own problems but most of the time they were really trying. Kyrie destroyed the Nets like the cancer that he is.
@@amaimon8031 Kd required trade before Kyrie last summer and Ky left cuase they not paid him its just business bruh
@@baremohamed5315 “cause they not paid him” 😂 yeah dumbass they didn’t want to pay him because he was barley even playing.
@@baremohamed5315 i would want out of Nets too if Kyrie was my teammate.
@@amaimon8031Kyrie Irving didn't demand that the coach and the GM be fired, though. That "extra" was all Kevin Durant.
If KD really was not a huge part of the blame, Joe Tsai would have simply fired Sean Marks. He didn't.
So don't make like ownership didn't disrespect Durant any more than they did Kyrie. Irving played more games for the Nets than KD did, but you keep reciting the media narrative you've been trained to believe.
Good boy. 📺
Their personalities were too fragile for them to last through the whole season. Without a leader to guide them they were bound to disintegrate
No one was a bus driver, it's amazing that they blame the front office for all the issues (although not completely at fault) this somehow was spinned to make it look like Brooklyn was the shit show.
@@Bliu2th yeah it's hilarious how a franchise does everything they want and when it doesn't work out they wanna be traded
@@Rucker1980 all of them said "we just wanna play basketball" at some point. Right before or after running a team to the ground. It's such a cheap cop-out, if they "just wanted to play basketball", they could have just shut up and play.
Facts facts facts. Especially kyrie and kd. They started this and can't handle their own mess.
Sports is not just about physical attributes, it's also about mental attributes. That's why scouting reports from basketball, soccer also include personality and behavior. That's why many teams don't sign problem players even if they have the skill.
I feel a bigger punch to KD is the fact Golden State ended up winning another championship without him. It was also against the same team that swept the Nets.
It just further stained KD’s legacy that he needed the Warriors, they didn’t need him.
That narrative never even made sense considering they won in 2015. Just the haters spewing their bs
I don't think kd cared that much especially since he is now on another great team he knows he has time to win again
NY was the problem, not the team or the players. KD and Kyrie were more than enough. Due to covid in the liberal state of NY prevented KY from playing resulting in no chemistry between all of them. That's the thing simple minded people don't understand. Having a line up of great players means nothing if you don't have chemistry. The 92 dream team losing to a college team proved that. 🙄
@@younglove3362 oh shut up about with your maga politics. The vaccine mandate didnt even start until the 2021-2022 season. Where was the winning before that?
If only there was a simple solution Kyrie could've done to be with the team to build that chemistry, like say take a simple shot and be done with it, but nah he heard from a friend of a friend on Facebook about Covid which means his hands are tied /s
Blaming New York for this when Kyrie was a selfish idiot is just deflection of responsibility.
The whole Steve nash and Kenny Atkinson situation goes to show why players play and coaches coach
The nash hire was the worst move for this team
Oh please Magic Johnson got rid of Paul Westhead and won four rings with Pat Riley.Jordan didn't win any rings until they let Doug Collins go and brought in Phil Jackson.The Lakers didn't win until they let go the coach(I think his name was Del Harris)and brought in Phil Jackson.If the players don't like the coach or the system,you are not going to win.Sorry but it's a players league.
@@ralphgreenwood2469 that’s not his point. Did magic want pat riley ? Kd and kyrie demanded the front office to do moves and make these changes. Jordan didn’t do that nor did magic.
You must be a young guy.Magic most definitely got rid of Paul Westhead.No doubt about it.Magic was probably the first guy to actually jettison a coach.It wasn't a big deal then and that was over 40 years ago.Nobody pays to see the coach.Its a players League.Coaches still have authority though but players have to buy in to their system or else the coach is out the door.Oh and the players liked Pat Riley who was assistant coach with the Lakers at the time that's how Riley got the Lakers job.
@@mikeedwards9984 🤣 signing Kyrie & trying to build a bs superteam was the worst move lol
Kyrie left the Nets at the 4th seed only to end up with the Mavs in the 11th seed lmao.
kyrie always been selfish and a large ego he ain’t made it to the finals without bron😂😂
Nothing made me happier as a Nets fan. I cackled when he did an interview and he acted all surprised he got traded.
@@zezeeze12 karma is a beautiful thing 😂😂😂
@@Raphmatic5000 fr i don’t even like the nets but like kyrie a bitch for doing harden like he did
He had no other choice his extension was contingent on him winning a championship. I have never heard of any team asking such a thing. If he would have waited until the off-season there would have not been any good teams with enough cap space to sign him. So he had to roll the dice.
Durant: *calls out Nets for not building the proper culture to contend for a title*
Warriors: 👀
OKC: 👀
If KD wanted a ring he should’ve stuck with us on the warriors bro really sold a guaranteed dynasty for a conspiracy theorist

I applaud harden to this day for getting out of that mess as fast as he could. He left Houston to not be the guy anymore but kyries BS led to harden having to do just as much
it’s tough cuz kd and harden together with good big men would’ve been a great contender, DLo isn’t a bad pg too
@@kpenis17 Nocap,when it was just kd and harden at the beginning of 2021-2022, they were in first or second till kd went down
By BS, do mean him not getting the Covid shot?
Harden was an issue as well, that’s why he trying to leave Philly now
@@rickyaburgos yes unfortunately he always falls apart in the 4th quarter all the time
I love the fact the beginning sizzle reel didnt just use main broadcasting media, but also reactions from NBA youtube, which has some amazing brains for the sport !!
I was just thinking about how you haven’t uploaded over 2 months. Then I started thinking “He must have something big cooking.” And here we are🔥🔥🔥
kenny’s “it finally happened!” at the beginning is iconic lmao
Man, I miss that squad with D'lo, Dinwiddie, Harris, LeVert, Allen, RHJ, Davis and Dudley.
I remember when they signed Kyrie and traded away D'lo, I was disappointed because I wanted to see how that previous core would work out instead of going all in Kyrie and KD. They were so much fun.
The Nets went from an upcoming young fun team to a team that was controlled by player politics and egos. KD and Kyrie singled out players and the coach that originally made the Nets a playoff team to begin with and wanted what they desired. Even when they got what they wanted, it was never enough.
As great talents as they were, they set the Nets franchise back for years. Have to blame the front office too because they let this happen and could've easily denied the idea of letting the players control the team
And those Ass Holes got the coach fired too.
I remember as a Knicks fan being so angry that they went to the Nets. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Yup and the Knicks are moving on to round 2
Not really any disguise if you paid any real attention & didn't eat up media hype lol. Kyrie drags a trail of debris with him that makes having him on any team a cancer tbh ;o)
Not a blessing if you don't gain anything, you just avoided a bad situation
@trevmorin that depends on how you view it. Sometimes the best things for us are the things that didn't happen.
Knicks ass
It goes to show how hard it is to win just 1 title, let alone 3 in a row. No matter the talent, it takes a lot of dedication and will power to win it. Much respect to those who have done the threepeat.
i don’t think there will be another 3 peat in the nba honestly, too many players care more about a bigger check than winning now and teams just can’t stay together
Everyone keeps talking about KD being the most sensitive player in NBA history, but look like to me that might be Kyrie. I always hear him talk about how he feels and feeling a certain way.
That Celtics series was weird. Nets played no defense - just three players one upping each other with offensive moves. It had absolutely no intensity. They were so cocky - and utterly uncoached. Hilarious that they blew the next round the way that they did.
Mad props to Harden for going out there injured to try and help Brooklyn win I can’t imagine how much discomfort he was in
My man u got it wrong.If u are injured and can't help the team,you take yourself out of the game and root as hard as u can for your replacement.He might actually have cost the Nets the series.Harden should have sat his butt down and let Mike James play.What game were u watching?
@@ralphgreenwood2469 bringing back harden for game 7 with that hamstring was a questionable move similar thing the warriors did with Kd in 2019 rushing him back for game 5 of the finals just to injure his ACL
@@tj5180 Good point,the difference tho was KD didn't stink up the joint.Harden did.He played horribly both offense and defense.Since it ended up being a two or three point game Hardens ineptitude turned out to be a significant factor.I usually give guys a pass when they are injured but Harden had to know he was not helping the team.He should have put his ego aside and let someone who could actually help the team play.That's what a real team player does.
Harden is overrated as f
People mistook being hard for stupid. If you’re not at 100%, don’t go out there. Let someone else earn their spot. Dumbass could have destroyed his legs for life
As a Cavs fan...thank you for Jarrett Allen!!!! He may not be a superstar, but he brings far less controversy than KD, JH, or Kyrie ever did.
We still have claxton so no big loss since they are similar.. but trading for harden was the start of the end
@@DarkKnight-px7rg Yall got Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith, an unprotected 2029 first rounder and two second round picks from the mavs + Mikal Bridges ,Cameron Johnson , Juan Pablo Vaulet , 4 first round picks , one pick swap , and 2 second round picks from the Suns so it aint a big loss for the nets
@@johnkenrickchua1811 well when you put it that way I’m happy
@@DarkKnight-px7rg Trading for Harden was just the start though, he was the reason we could've won it all if not for injuries. He was a much better fit for the team than Kyrie. Even Bruce Brown said recently the team just wasn't the same after Harden left
yeah, but y'all are still garbage so you really didn't win shit, wasn't allen the guy that said the lights were too bright for him against new york and proceeded to get dominated by mitchell robinson
Oh look, another team that was supposed to be great & collapsed year after year that had Harden on it. I’m shocked.
Also, in general, I think the Nets also encapsulate why working with your friends is often a really poor idea. It takes an incredible level of professionalism to balance a high pressure work environment with personal friendships.
That's made all the worst by the fact that Kyrie is one of the least professional players in the NBA. His podcast remarks solidify that. Basically, what it boils down to is that Kyrie and KD didn't like Kenny because Kenny actually held them accountable and held them to a standard. Heaven forbid that you're held to a standard at work! Another example of how entitled, privileged and oblivious those two are.
im a nets fan so this topic gets me emotional 😢 but ive been needing this video from you
Same
I grew up a nets fan too until they acquired all 4 of my least favorite players 🤦♂️
Mikel Bridges going to become KD 2.0 mark my words
@@khalmasonart i love mikal and i agree i see glimpses of KD in his scoring style but imo we need more playmaking/rebounding from him
i really miss that 2019 nets team. don't know if we'll ever see a team as real as them.
That team was fun and energetic
Damn i wanna see that 2019 nets with KD.
No kyrie no harden. Otherwise its not going anywhere with Dlo as the best player
I don't know basketball (or sports in general) very well but I really enjoy your videos! The info is great and I really enjoy hearing about it. I've found other channels that speak on a team/player I want to hear about but I can't get into their style of relaying the info. Great job!
ngl I think Kyrie was a huge part as to why this team didn't succeed. It isn't all his fault but I think he's still a significant factor
Joe Tsai is the one and only reason for their failure.
@@se78n39 if ur best player is worried ab running in practice, it says a lot more ab the player than it does the organization

@@zaboknowsbest13 millions didn't die that's bullshit
Its all about luck. if none of them got injured, Nets would be on their 3rd consecutive ring
the title should really be "how kyrie destroyed a superteam"
Again*
Vaccine is a joke
No lies told.
No that would be the Bucks and Celtics.
Typical brain dead npc take lol
this is a great video being a Brooklyn Nets fan and living in brooklyn this made me a little happier i didnt really care that they got traded it felt like it would happen seeing at the beggining when kd got injured kyrie was carrying the nets and felt like he had an ego
Man. Much respect to LeBron. It's not easy making winning teams..super team or not.
Lebron could break any records, but the most impressive feat he had done is taming and winning with Qyrie.
The fact he managed to win a ring with kyrie makes him the goat alone in my book 😂😂
@@amaan8663 i never even thought of that. Shiiiit he might be my goat too now😂
@@amaan8663 facts
@@amaan8663 this is exacty what i been saying only with Lebron could Kyrie ve tamed
Ppl say if the nets paid Kyrie the money he wanted, They would still have KD and Kyrie. They love to forget that Kyrie just played around 30% of games in 3 years. Would you pay such a huge money to a player who is not available in 70% of games and likes to create drama out of nowhere
0:03 I appreciate that Dylan put a clip of Kenny as a Media response to the trade.
This is a fair, thorough video, well done.
Point of order: Brooklyn DID offer a max contract. Several times, several iterations. Kyrie wanted one with no string attached, 100% fully guaranteed for the maximum 4 years. The Nets rightly refused.
The nets chose their ego and to disrespect kyrie over an opportunity to win a championship. They will now be a loosing team for the rest of their days.
@@se78n39 nah, they were smart not to pay guaranteed money to a dude they couldn’t rely on to consistently be there for them. And I say that as someone who enjoys watching Kyrie play.
@@se78n39 they didn’t disrespect kyrie, he didn’t deserve that max after what had happened during the season getting into drama and not following Covid protocols even partying with his sister during her birthday being insecure during the pandemic also his injuries
Very good video!!! And a great time to drop it. Definitely one we were waiting for.
Your videos are so good man. No one is doing it like you
The funny part of the 2022 off-season was seeing what the teams were willing to trade for KD only for him to not get traded that summer.
Your videos are always good content 👌. Cuz the way you explained how the Nets fell shows how forming super teams are double edged swords
Very well edited video. Great work Dylan!
I’ve been waiting for you to make a video on this, and you did not disappoint!
Kyries insane unquenchable ego was the real down fall. Also hilarious that at the end they needed interior play and at on point they had Jarret allen lol

I'm happy u made this video dylan cause ive been following the nets since the trio was formed and ive been a nets fan since still am.
I’ve been waiting for you to make a video on this, and you did not disappoint.
The last 5 minutes of this video got me chocked up and feeling some type of way. The image of Durant-Harden-Kyrie showing their backs at the end got me teary-eyed. * Sigh
Uff, as a nets fan I knew this one was coming haha! Looking forward to it, we’ve been a mess, but somehow stumbled out of it all with a budding star in Mikal and a somewhat happy core!
Great job on the video Dylan! Keep on doing your thing!
honestly love the fact that you use a weatherscan track in the videos, thought I was the only one who knew about that.
Kemba Walker request; Man was suppose to be a franchise piece for the Celtics and in a couple years he's waived by Dallas and disappears?
Kyrie pretty much single handedly ruined this big three. Man made James harden wanna leave cause kyrie was a part time playee
ok goofy
I am loving this editing. Fantastic! 👌
Loved the video! Also super cool to see you use Aquatic Ambiance from DK Country in the Final Straw chapter of the video 😅
I try to see where Kyrie is coming from a lot, but then just get absolutely taken back when I get reminded of the kind of sh** he would do on a daily basis.
I love Kyrie's game and a lot of the humanitarian stuff he does for the community and such.

If clippers lose to the suns in the first round I think a video needs to be made on how disappointing they’ve been. Once again, great content you deserve at least a mil subs
well PG13 is prob missing the whole season. i think he already done a video onn the Lob city era clippers.
Probably should wait until Kawhi or PG get traded, you never know...
As a Clippers fan, I'd wanna see a video as well. Highlight how insanely unlucky this team has been when it came to injuries.
Still 30 of 30 gms would’ve done that move. You can’t predict injuries
As of today(4/22/2023, Clippers are down 3-1 to the Suns, one game away from elimination.
Yesss sir here we go!! Can't wait to enjoy my dinner while watching yet another banger high quality video from Dylan. Keep this up!!!

Love the videos bro, best Basketball content on TH-cam by far
This was good, great show, thanks
I honestly believe that Kyrie's decision to not get a shot was the most detrimental factor as to why the Nets super team failed, that and the vast amount of injuries that haunted them.
If Kyrie wasn’t such a selfish dick about getting the vaccine that teams stays together. James Harden sees that team is taking itself seriously signs an extension and doesn’t request a trade from clown town. They keep the big 3 and perhaps have more cracks at getting a title.
Instead Kyrie sabatoges the team, Harden leaves in disgust and ring chases with Embiid, KD fucks off after seeing the shell of Ben Simmons, and Kyrie fucks off to go ruin the Mavs.
@@fieldmarshalp9456 agreed... i mean kd almost got them to the finals if it wasnt for that infamous inch while kyrie, harden (joe harris too if i remember right) were out ... i really think that would have been their year if not for the injuries
As a kyrie fan I’m not happy for the decisions he made I like the Nets and I feel like if they would have never traded for Harden that 2019 team would be so dangerous he would have won a ring
Another brainwashed vaxx zealot
Good for him refusing that poison.
Kyrie Irving seems to think ability as a pro athlete automatically translates across the board and that once you’ve become a great player no further work is needed.
I just want to say your music taste in this video was impeccable, especially the blank banshee surprised me
This editing is amazing
Basically, It's kyrie's fault.
And injuries, and mismanagement, and....
He was way over his head.
Or NYC's ridiculous rules ?
@@MurphysLaw__ What about the year before in 2021 when Kyrie decided to leave Durant hanging in the middle of the season by taking a week off to attend his sister’s birthday party? 😂🤣

@@Jgol626kyrie?
He’s back 🔥
Thank you for the Gran Turismo music in your videos :)
Bro I love your videos. They're long, but damn are they engaging from start to finish.
While I (a Nets fan) agree that it's ultimately the fault of a lot of people, I really struggle to place primary blame on anyone but Kyrie. You can't build a championship roster around a second option with the ego of a superstar and the reliability of a benchwarmer. Also, I haven't given up on Simmons yet. He had the same back surgery as MPJ and he said that he didn't feel like his old self until 18 months after. I think some of his struggles look more like a guy who isn't healthy rather than a guy who for has inexplicably changed into a new player. He was rushed back to make the new "Big 3" happen and a lot of people forget that Ben had a stretch of nice games before he got hurt again.
bens a good fit as a teammate to kd, wish it could’ve worked out cuz i’ve wanted the nets to succeed for a long ass time, now the nets just can’t compete and traded everyone away for dudes that left
ok goofy
“I haven’t given up on Simmons yet.”
Ah so your entire opinion is ridiculous 😂
In the same breathe you completely contradict your first statement
never forget that Kenny Atkinson won a ring as a GSW assistant coach versus the very same Celtics team that SWEPT Durant and Irving 🤣
great vid as always
I've been waiting for this video knowing it'd appear in my sub box one day
The nets were up 2-0 in the 2021 ECSF series... As a Bucks fan, I really thought it was over 😂
I kinda didn't just because we were coming back home and I knew we'd play better against them at Fiserv.
Giannis career highlight play of injuring kyrie saved them
A perfect example of a team of champions rather than a champion team.
