On October 22, Beijing time, the list of the NBA's top 75 stars was announced. The list was voted on by the media, retired/active players, coaches, general managers and team executives in no particular order. After the official release of the list of 75 top stars, who is more worthy of being selected has become a hot topic. It is worth mentioning that all the players who have been shortlisted for the top 50 stars have been selected for the list of 75 top stars. Therefore, this selection is more like adding 25 seats and then selecting the new finalists. However, because of the situation of the same vote, the final list listed 76 stars.
After the roster was announced, Golden State Warriors player Klay Thompson spoke out on Instagram, saying, "Maybe I'm too naïve about my skills, but in my opinion, I should be on the list of the top 75 stars." ”
Not only Thompson, but also TNT began to discuss the issue of the lost star as soon as the list was announced. During the discussion, TNT produced a list of ten "lost pearls", including Walter Bellamy, Grant Hill, Vince Carter, Dwight Howard, Adrian Dantley, Bernard King, Artis Gilmore, Tracy McGrady, Anfinny Hardaway and Dekembe Mutombo.
Interestingly, this list of "lost pearls" also made the guests argue. Houston Rockets star Kenny Smith said: "I didn't miss it, did I? Yao Ming is not on the list, he should at least be on this (lost pearl) list, right? Charles Barkley, who is also a rocket star, said, "His seniority is not as good as Dicken Bay." It can be seen that the list of stars is indeed difficult to reconcile, and everyone has their own judging standards.
