You are being purposefully ignorant again, no surprise.

I clearly said being a super star that one of the prerequisites was being a star.

You also said basketball ability and level didn't matter lol. Arguing with yourself! Not surprised lol.

If you are a top 5 player in the NBA you are a superstar regardless of marketability or popularity. Thing is if you are top 5 you will be popular. Only really important criteria of being a superstar player is being the elite of the elite.

Donovan is a star but not a super star. He is barely a star. His shoe hasn't hit shelves yet and he hasn't made the All Star game. He had a career high last night beating the best team in the NBA, and he didn't even make the front page of ESPN. If any of these guys had scored 46 coming back from 17 in the 4th to beat the best NBA team, it would be ESPN front page news:

LeBron
Durant
Curry
Harden
AD
Giannis
Wade
Dirk
Westbrook

Maybe a couple others, but these are true NBA superstars.

I would say that Dirk and wade WERE superstars but are not currently.

I love Mitchell. Probably my favorite player of all time. Wouldn't trade him for anyone. But he's currently too inconsistent to be considered even an all-star level player. He's close though.

I think he is all Star level since 2019. But 2018 he was not. For the season as a whole I agree that he is right on the cusp.

Hey I'm a thunder fan, few years back I was here mostly trolling.

Just want to say congrats on the steal of the draft, your team is going to be elite for years to come and tbh the fanbase deserves it.

Good luck the rest of the season!

I have a feeling we end up playing you guys again in the first round.

Me too. Hopefully we have home court.

Really the only team I don't want to play is Houston cause I don't want to watch harden.

On a nightly basis, I agree with you here. But - If they did what Donovan did last night, it would be everywhere in the way that Cy labels a superstar.

When Dirk and Wade retire, their places will be taken by Doncic and hopefully Donovan. Both could be in the top 10 superstar type conversation. For Donovan, we need a lot of magic like last night. We need playoff magic.

If Dirk or Wade did what Donovan did last night then I would say they had a superstar level game, just like Donovan did. I wouldn't say that they are superstar players this year though even if they had a game like that just like I don't think Donovan is either. Need to be a top player in the league. Dirk and wade and Donovan are not top players. Donovan is closer than those two.

Like a superstar is like if we did a nba fantasy draft. Who would be the top 5,6,7,8 or so picks? Those would be your superstars.
Lebron, kahwi, AD, Durant, Steph, harden. Those types. Wade and Dirk don't come close even if they have a 46 point game in one game. Donovan comes kind of close. Where would he be drafted in this fantasy draft though? Maybe somewhere around 20-30 maybe?
