    Default Are CP3 & Kevin Durant superstars?

    I just listened to Skip, Stephen A, and Isiah Thomas talking about the criteria of what a superstar is, and I guess they came to a common ground that one must win a chip to be considered a superstar.

    So are them two superstars according to you? And who is a superstar right now?

    And one question I wanted to ask that crew if I could is, "When is a player stripped from that superstar status?"

    No. People are throwing around "superstar" too loosely. Kobe and LeBron are superstars. Nobody else.

    If you win the MVP, you are an automatic superstar

    superstar status is more popularity/mass marketing appeal than actual ability/effectiveness.

    They are superstars to their franchise and their fan, and most likely superstars to their conference if they make it to the finals.

    But yes, until they win a ring, they are not superstars in terms of the league.

    Is D-Rose still one? Or was he ever one? What about Westbrook?

    True, I haven't done the count in terms of Hall Of Famers by MVP without rings, and those with rings without MVP. I suspect the number might turn out where MVP had been viewed similarly as a ring.

    Probably as close to an individual ring as it gets.

    Well they're retarded then. A chip is won by a team of 8 players (yes, actually 12 but usually only 8 get significant minutes).


    Kevin Durant is easily a super-star.

    Chris Paul is borderline top 5, so he's a borderline super-star. He was a super-star in 2008 and 2009 though easily.

    CP3 isn't, imo. Hell, Blake is more of a superstar than he is.
