James Harden’s big night headlined all things for the Nets on Friday. However, there was one thing that the Beard touched on during the postgame press conference that turned heads. According to Harden, the Big 3 could be back in action sooner than later.
“Hopefully he (Kyrie Irving) gets back this week and Kevin (Durant) as well — I think we have 25 or 26 or something like that games left so you know this postseason is coming up very soon so the quicker we can get guys healthy and on the floor we can figure it out. We can watch film and learn on the fly because there’s really no practice time and the better off we’ll be. So we expect to get those guys back this week and we can’t wait!”
No. He’s referring to the “guys” as everyone that is out. Look: pic.twitter.com/gdNZWIRRmg

The Nets are missing key players that help amplify what the Nets have going on here so just hearing Harden say that the team expects to get those guys back this week is a relief for the players that have been holding it down with their absence. More importantly, it’s a relief for fans who have been waiting ever so patiently for the Big 3 to finally return to the court.
Scary Hours are about to be in full session again, buckle up.
