    Is the star center ever more popular than the star wing?

    They would def market them as a duo so non feels inferior like they did with Yao and tmac. Superstars have ego that can make being second fiddle unappealing to them. You can tell dwade is a little Annoyed but lebron is always sticking up for him.

    The only appropriate answer is who cares. Everyone knows that the only star this city cares about is Jose Altuve.

    Voted for Harden because Jeremy Lin wasn't an option. :grin:

    But I think it really depends on how well they play. If the system changes and Harden finds it more difficult to score because of spacing, whereas, Howard returns to his 2010/11 form of 23pts / 14reb / 60% FT. Howard could very well emerge as "the star".

    I look forward to hearing about how the coaches aren't using Lin correctly while letting Howard and Harden dominate the ball.

    It goes like this:

    JLin > Parsons > Chuck Hayes > Harden > Howard.

    I knew this would be a reply. Guess I should have added a "when the center wasn't already there for an extended period of time."

    Who cares, as long as we win.

    I think the only real superstar is Chandler Parsons

    I voted for "no idea" because we don't know if Howard would really choose the Rockets... However, if Howard really comes, Howard should be and will be #1 or he will sulk and demand trade again. Then it will be really bad for the Rockets.

    Was Hakeem more popular nationally in his career than Clyde was?
