The NBA has never lacked stars, and there are many players who can be called superstars, but there are very few superstars, and there are only a few active players. In the past, there were superstars such as Kobe, Duncan, James, Nowitzki and so on. As they gradually withdraw from the league, they also need new people to take over the superstar position. This issue will include only five superstars currently in service, as follows:
Fifth Cowy Leonard
Leonard showed off his superstar prowess early on the Spurs. At that time, under the guidance of Popovich's father, he was still mainly defensive, supplemented by offense. Moreover, the playoffs have always been dominated by defense. In the 2014 playoffs, young Leonard faced James directly, performing well on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. He eventually won a championship for the Spurs, and the FMVP trophy won by 22-year-old Leonard has never been out of control
Leonard defends James
After Leonard left the Spurs, he led the team to a championship in his first year with the Raptors. Leonard has since officially moved. In the ranks of the super-giants, Big-mouthed Klee also personally admitted that Leonard was a super-giant. And the honor of his career is enough to support him to become a super giant. The main honors are two FMVP and two DPOY. Leonard's dominance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is rare.
Fourth Giannis Antetokounmpo
Although Antetokounmpo started late, he gained weight rapidly after entering the league. Until now, this muscular man has been trained by him hard. The advantages of the alphabet brother are very obvious. He started out as a point guard and set a record for the highest point guard in history. Now he's basically playing in the big forward position. It is his background that has created his mature sense of ball control. A quick attack stop, the half-court basket directly three steps in place, the inside line can not stop him at all.
One letter brother on the basket
At the same time that Alphabet Brother led the team to win the championship, he also won an honorary Grand Slam, two regular season MVPs, an FMVP, and a dpoy, which is very good in attack and defense, while Alphabet Brother is only 26 years old and can basically take over the position of the first person in the league in the future.
Third Kevin Durant
Since entering the NBA in 2007, Durant has shown himself a super scorer, creating the youngest player in history. It's hard for anyone to break the scoring king, both now and in the future. Honestly, Durant isn't one of the most incomprehensible offensive players in the league today, and Durant is at the top of the list regardless of the tactical system, and Durant always carries out the final blow.
Durant's offense
And Durant's professional honors are also very numerous. The regular season MVP and the two FMVPs are heavyweight honors. In addition, there are 4 scoring kings. title. Durant, even though he was severely injured by a torn Achilles tendon, was still the return of death. He's omnipotent on the pitch, so he deserves the title of superstar.
The second Stephen Curry
I'm sure you don't need to discuss Curry's greatness. In fact, Curry has long been recognized as a superstar. Curry brought his superb three-pointers into the league and set off the small-ball era. Arguably, Curry changed the way the league plays, and he ushered in a new era in the league.
Steven Curry
Curry's career accolades are also innumerable. More important accolades include three championships, two regular season MVPs, and a record 73 wins in the 2015-16 season. In the same year, he became the first unanimous MVP in history, which is almost unbreakable for posterity. Curry's influence is global. Now the Warriors can become the number one ratings in the league, all for Curry.
First James
LeBron James has been doomed to be extraordinary since he entered the league. Even before he entered the NBA, there were a lot of teams against him. He is a once-in-a-century talented player. After James entered the league, he also played his talents, debuted at the peak, and has continued until now, leaving only him and Anthony in 2003.
Christmas vs. James Durant
James' professional honor is the most active player. It can be said that all the honors except dpoy have been awarded. There are 4 MVPs in the regular season, and 10 he reached the Finals four times, won the championship four times, and won the FMVP four times. Not to mention active duty, even throughout history, James is even better. In the current statistics of the Us media, he is second only to Jordan, second in history, so James as a superstar is also indisputable.
James vs. Curry
These are the only five superstars in the league today. It can be seen that their entry into the All-Star is only their lower limit, the upper limit is very high, and they have won the championship. The ability to lead the team is also top-notch. So in addition to having strong personal ability, you also need to have enough influence. Harden, Westbrook, Lillard, etc. are all superstars. In terms of super giants, only the above five players are eligible.
