Durant ‘up in the air’ on Barclays return
Former Net superstar back in Brooklyn on Wednesday
The summer of 2019 was supposed to be the beginning of something big here in Downtown Brooklyn.
Nets general manager Sean Marks got Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving to commit to bringing Flatbush Avenue its first championship parade since the Dodgers beat the hated Yankees in 1955.
Instead, three-plus seasons produced a single playoff series win — the same amount won by Brooklyn’s original star-studded roster featuring Brook Lopez, Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.
