Less Talented? That is arguable IMO Schoeder alone This is like who was better TMAC or PAUL PIERCE Tmac may have the talent but Paul had the heart Rocket River
Idk how I feel about that. Okc is lengthy and strong on the defensive end. Gonna be a battle. I could see okc beating us if we don’t shoot well
They and George are playing lights-out right now. We'll see what happens when they taper off a little bit. The All-Star break couldn't come at a worse time for them. Rockets blew an opportunity to put a dent in their armor with that putrid second half in Houston, but I still think they will overtake them for the 3rd seed.
Can we stick with 'star' for now?... superstar status requires multiple seasons of the same. He has never had this type of season.
Nope, not from where I sit. The guy looks like "superstar" material to me. Sometimes it takes the right situation for the cream to rise at or near the top. It did with Harden. PG13 has convinced me that he's arrived.
Paul George is having a great stretch, but he's been at it for 3 months. Kevin Durant has been at it for 8 years. The mark of a true transcendent superstar is sustained (over years) success. PG might be better than Durant THIS SEASON, but I guarantee there isn't a single GM in the league that would trade Durant for PG right now. Durant is a top 3 overall player in this league, and is someone you build an entire franchise around.
GS would deal Durant for George. Klay Thompson is a better player than George since January 4. He does not have enough touches.
