Since the NBA's new century, it has been 22 years, during which the NBA has been constantly changing old and new, and there are many stars. Substitutes are difficult for the team to survive, they can be eliminated at any time, and only if they work hard enough can they stay. If it is a substitute counterattack into a superstar, it is even more difficult, that is really "time and place favorable and people" is indispensable. In the past 20 years of the NBA, 4 people have counterattacked from the bench to superstars, and the difficulty can be imagined.
4 – Harden
Harden was a substitute for the Thunder for 3 years, with Durant and Westbrook around him, and his real light dimmed a lot. But the transfer to the Rockets, which was his turning point, met coach D'Antoni here, and his "magic ball" played the ball, allowing Harden to fully realize his potential. In the Rockets Harden is 6 in a lineup, 3 scoring champions, and 1 MVP. Having won the best sixth man and winning the MVP, such a career is too inspiring.
3 – Nash
Nash spent the first 2 seasons of his career at the Suns, and the bench stats were also very average. Like Harden, he also took a turn for the worse in his transfer career, and when he returned to the Suns again, Nash had achieved a brutal evolution. He soon became a well-known master of control in the league, especially the really good play of running and running. 2 MVP, 5 assists, 3 firsts, also foreign stars, Nash proved himself earlier than Nowitzki in the same period.
2 - Alphabet brother
Alphabet Brother was not in high order at the beginning, and he was also a marginal figure in the Bucks, but after meeting Kidd, Bole, Alphabet Brother achieved transformation. He fully utilized his height and arm span advantage and improved every year. Nowadays, the average per game is 25 +12 data easily won, and the No. 4 position really has no opponent. He has been 2 MVP, 1 championship + FMVP, and 3 first-time and one-defense, and now alphabet brother is an attack and defense, continue to maintain, he is the new first man.
1 – Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant was first a substitute in the Lakers, and there are superstars like O'Neal around him, and his attention is too low. But Kobe Bryant didn't give up, he kept improving himself, and then the "OK" combination swept the league. During his solo leadership, Bryant played the offense to the extreme, and the 81 points in a single game were even more miraculous. In his 20-year career, he has won 5 titles, 1 MVP, 2 scoring champions and 9 first defenses. There were 11 times in a row, and in the same position he really ruled for an era, after Jordan, Kobe Bryant was the strongest quarterback.
