Durant-Irving faceoff brings to mind other failed superteams

espn.com

When you're putting together a championship contender, one rule is paramount — get the best talent you possibly can. You'll be facing off against the best possible rosters your opponents can assemble, so it's only logical that you should pack your own team full of stars.

Sometimes, the stars align and you can even stack your roster with multiple Hall of Famers, thereby guaranteeing you a title.

Right? Well, not quite. That's what the Brooklyn Nets likely had in mind when they acquired Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving in 2019, and then added James Harden in the latter part of the 2020-21 season.

That's three superstars, all of whom are likely bound for Springfield, Massachusetts, when they retire, and all of whom can take over games.
