The Brooklyn Nets are unguardable and this wild stat proves it

We all knew that the Brooklyn Nets would be pretty incredible offensively, but they don’t just look incredible right now. They look historic.

The Nets are legitimately unguardable on most nights and they haven’t even had a consistent run from their complete big 3 with Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving all on the floor at once.

That trio is already one of the most dominant in NBA history with just a handful of games under its belt. After James Harden put up a 29-point triple-double against the Kings on Tuesday night, he moved his scoring average up to 25.2 points per game.

And that, officially, makes Durant, Harden and Irving the first trio of teammates to ever average at least 25 points per game in NBA history.

And if that wasn’t bad enough, Joe Harris looks like he might be the best shooter in the NBA this season. He’s lights out from everywhere. 

Good luck to the rest of the NBA when throwing those double teams. You’re going to need it.
