People in life are divided into three, six or nine levels. Playing in the NBA also has levels. The players here can basically be divided into four levels: star, all-star, superstar, and super giant. Of course, the higher the level, the greater your influence in the alliance and your strength will definitely be better.

Although the NBA is now very capable of creating stars and it is easy to create an idol, there are only two people who are truly super giants. The Super Giant is a historical superstar. One person can determine the outcome of a game. Whether it is influence or strength, he is the top player in the league. The key super giant must withstand the test of time. It is either a flash in the pan that goes wild for a season or a super giant.

The editor has been watching the NBA for a long time, so I won’t talk about retired stars. In the editor's mind, there are only two current superstars in the NBA, four of them can be considered superstars, and the rest are at most All-Star level. Today I will tell you the super giant and superstar candidates in my mind, and everyone is welcome to discuss them together.

All-Stars

There are many candidates in this group, including Irving, George, Lillard, Westbrook, Embiid, Jokic, etc. They are all popular stars in the league. But whether it is honor, influence, or his own strength, he is still far from the superstar stage. Either the honor is poor, the data is poor, or the team leadership ability is poor. In short, the shortcomings of an All-Star player are still obvious.

Superstar

There are 4 people here, the first one is Antetokounmpo. Antetokounmpo is the only current MVP born in the 1990s, and his strength is obvious to all. He is still very young and still has a lot of room for improvement. He can dominate the league if he develops his shooting. Why can't Westbrook be considered a superstar if he has an MVP? It's because his MVP is too controversial.

Curry is definitely a superstar. After all, he is the only unanimous MVP in history, and he also has 402 three-pointers in a single season. He changed the league's play style with three-pointers, and almost all records related to three-pointers were changed to include Curry's name. But as a system player, Curry relies too much on the team's lineup. Now without Thompson and Durant, the Warriors have become weak. Even if they are not injured, the Warriors will no longer be a championship team. Once Curry is targeted, his three-point efficiency plummets. Without Curry, what he can do is still too limited.

Leonard also established himself as a superstar after the Raptors won the championship. Although he had already won FMVP during the Spurs era, the core of the team at that time was not him, but Duncan. Leonard is excellent both offensively and defensively, and he is stable and ruthless at critical moments. He is a typical player who is "ruthless but doesn't talk much". Whenever he wins an MVP, Leonard will enter the ranks of super giants.

There is another player who, without saying too much, has strong offensive ability, especially the ability to draw fouls, which is a reflection of high golf intelligence. With a big beard, an MVP, and two scoring titles, he must be considered a superstar. Whenever he becomes strong in the playoffs, he will be considered a super player.

Super Giant

The first is Durant. Whether Durant’s ability to lead a team is strong or weak is indeed open to question. But being able to destroy all defenses with offense is something Durant can do currently. Durant doesn't have the ball, so he can go three quarters without scoring, but at critical moments, a wave of offense can take away the game. This kind of confidence is based on strong offensive ability. Without Durant, the Warriors would not have won the championship twice in the past three years. With Durant, it is possible to create miracles. His offense is not inferior to that of a great player like Djoko.

James has played for 17 years. Whether he is a super giant is an obvious question. He reached his peak when he debuted and stayed at his peak for 17 years. This is rare in history. James has almost no shortcomings. He can do almost everything you can think of. James is the ticket to the finals and the guarantee of huge profits. His influence and strength are unique among current players. If you don't watch basketball, you may not know Durant or Leonard, but you must know James, who is the face of the NBA today.

As one of the top five superstars in history, James's greatness cannot be denied by the scumbags in just one or two sentences!
