Barely made the playoffs? He made the playoffs b2b years with a less than stellar squad at 22 & 23 years old.
And how is being 2nd team all NBA "barely" making an all nba team..
No, the Nets are unfairly stacked. Cheats. LeBron has to carry scrubs its not fair. Dont you understand?

Ballsout said he made the playoffs the years just before joining Miami. That's wrong. He made the playoffs twice in all that time at Toronto.
He made one All NBA team. Hes not exactly a sure thing any year, hence one 1 team.
Are you seriously asking for non superstar players who are 8 time all stars? Was Dikembe a superstar? How about Alex English? Robert Parish has 10 I think, and he wasn't a superstar.

You might be the worst poster on here at putting together an argument. That, and actually understanding what you're debating.

Bosh's career isn't even close to being done. Dikembe was in the league for what 20 years? Not a good comparison. Bosh is a 20/10 guy, led his team to the playoffs as the man in Toronto, 8 all star games in 10 seasons, all nba 2nd team, 2 gold medals with team USA in the olympics, 4th overall draft pick lived up to expectations and more and Bosh's career isn't even close to being done.
What more do you want? The guy is the definition of a proven superstar in this league. Of course Heat fans won't admit it, it diminishes all the titles they've won.

They are easily the most talented from top the bottom.... Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Kevin Garnett accompanied with Brook Lopez who is a legit C playing like the best Center in the league..... oh forgot Paul Pierce... All these guys are currently All-stars with like i think around 40 all-star selections between them, its like watching an All-star game east/west team....
Next thing you know they go to rest..... and a 6'7" Point-Guard comes in, DPOY level defender Kirilenko comes in, Euro MVP Anderson comes in, Jason Terry comes in playing better than ever and Blatche who also looks very improved especially with his ballhandling at that size....
Watchout league....
Sometimes fans forget that players age. Garnett and pierce are not stars anymore. Johnson is also getting old. This team is not special. The warriors have far superior talent.

Alex English & Robert Parish were superstars in their day. Not Bird Magic level but casual fans knew all about them both

Re: Nets... probably the most stacked team of our lifetime?
They are really well built though. Even as it stands today. But the fact of the matter is their 2x superstars (KG, Pierce) are way too old.
They're third best players, all star caliber guys but not superstar level (JJ, Deron) aren't the same players they were just 3 or 4 years ago. JJ passive a lot, was really good when playing for that pay day check in free agency.
If this Nets team was put together in the 2007 - 2010 time frame. Yikes. They'd be really frightening. As of right now, they're just really, really good until proven otherwise.

Re: Nets... probably the most stacked team of our lifetime?
They are stacked but definitely not all-time level stacked. They don't even have a top 10 player in the league, maybe not even top 15.

Can you name ONE superstar, who scored 0 points in the Finals? Bosh did it in his prime and in a Game 7. Bosh is not a superstar. If Bosh is a superstar, Lebron, Durant, etc. are what?

DWill is their best player, then Peirce, then Lopez then Garnett. I honestly don't understand how people can watch DWill in the last half of last season and still say he's lost a step.
