Well, the ineviteable narrative that Nets choked the playoffs away must be the driving force behind Durant & Harden joining the Olympics team.

They didn't choke anything. Harden played injured and Kyrie missed entire series. KD carried them as much as he could. Massive respect for KD and JH for joining the team even though they have nothing to prove to anyone, especialy KD who has won everything there is to win. And Harden playing even though he obviously wasn't fit during the playoffs.

Jerami Grant spent 3 seasons with OKC & Philadelphia. He currently plays for the Detroit Pistons. I don’t expect him to play a whole lot in Tokyo.

I stopped watching NBA few years ago, so not really aware of what's going on

Yeah I hardly watch it either. Just some Pistons (home town team) games once in a while.
