Who's the NBA's next megastar in around 5 years?

[darthska]

[quote name="Mister Friendly"]Also no mention of Kobe [/quote]Jesus H. Christ.

Find the Lakers thread or Kobe Appreciation thread, man.

"You would. You hate Kobe."

Right? That's what you're thinking, right?

Must be why I stopped Spurs talk dominating the NBA thread. Big Spurs fan, I must be.

Or maybe I'm a huge Hawks fan, insisting ryanjumpman stop turning the NBA thread into Hawks Talk. Must have been because I'm a huge Hawks fan. That's all I do, just want the whole forum to operate according to my loyalties.

Ooooorrr... this entire discussion going on right now has nothing to do with the thread topic, and was ignited by you having a problem with someone's omission of Kobe, and is continuing because of your agenda.

Petty.

Megastars; discuss.

This is why I take most of these stats with a grain of salt most of them show there was a negligible difference between but then you go find one that makes it seem like it was. Anybody with eyes knows Kobe was a top 5 player in 2013.

Even if you only want to use the basketball-reference metric that you posted, that's not negligible. That's a significant difference.

Or for the old school types who think this is all a bunch of crap and wins and losses are the only stat that matters... Chris got his team 11 more wins and the Lakers squeaked into the playoffs on the last day of the season. You don't have a leg to stand on with this.

I don't want nor care to use any of it really but you come posting TS% that's damn near the same and +/- in non-specific terms like someone cares. Bottom line Chris Paul has never been on Bron, KD or Kobe's level. He's never been a megastar, which was the initial point.

 

[sea manup]

chris paul also needs to get the respect he deserves for winning two more playoff games than kobe's lakers that year 

 

[MVP]

I like the way Screamin A framed it he said he's a star or superstar point guard ie one of the best at his position but in totality of players in the league he's not a superstar. Just like Melo.

How does a thread about megastars in 2020 have anything to do with Kobe?

 

[JD617]

Because WHY WASN'T KOBE INCLUDED IN YOUR COMPARISONS, HUH?! WHY?! IT'S NOT FAIR.

[shoeking2102]

Aint nobody responding to your tired gimmick man don't flatter yourself

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Is there a way to set up alerts on NT or something? Like when a member uses a word, an e-mail or text goes out?

Don't post in a thread. It goes 4 pages. Make a single post. 22 seconds later...

 

[shoeking2102]

Ok.

JD was right.

When someone's agenda takes over any and all discussion they are in, that's on them, and the forum or at least the thread is better off without them.

the question is why is chris paul considered a megastar

i would say its pretty on topic 

if someone brings up jeremy lin in a thread about top 10 pgs in the league im going to ask for an explanation

same thing here
