The time has arrived.
For the first time since Feb. 13 against Golden State when fans were still 10 days from being permitted at Barclays Center, Brooklyn’s “Big Three” of Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving will be on the court together Saturday against the Bulls.
“Yes. I think tomorrow will be the day, so if everything stays the same, those three will play tomorrow,” Nash told reporters Friday.
It will be the eighth time Brooklyn’s “Big Three” which boasts a 5-2 record when together will be on the court as a unit this season and the first time fans can watch the trio at Barclays Center. Barclays opened up to fans on February 23, ten days after their last foray on the court.

The Nets had their lead in the Eastern Conference standings trimmed to just a half-game over the Sixers with Friday’s 128-109 loss to the Trail Blazers. Now sitting at 43-21 on the season, Brooklyn is hitting the road for a five-game, 11-day road trip, beginning with two tough tests in Milwaukee.
“Just continuing to find consistency for what we’re gearing up for towards the end of the season. [We] are really just thinking about staying healthy and doing everything we can to come out on the winning side,” Kyrie Irving said.

OKLAHOMA CITY -
If a ball is loose and you need a board, who you gonna call? It may as well be Hamidou Diallo.
As we discussed in this space on Wednesday, Diallo is in the middle of some awesome basketball. It isn’t a stretch to call the last week and a half Diallo’s best as a pro.
The good times continued for Diallo, a Queens native, who made his return to the Tri-state area.
It is possible Knicks forward Julius Randle forgot about Diallo being on the floor or being in the building entirely during the fourth quarter. Whichever, the lapse cost Randle.
