    Darvin Ham was terrible. If you watched the lakers with any sense of regularity, they almost never had any coaching edge against any team they played, and they won most of their games on the backs of AD and Lebron's great performances. When the best shot you can get in a tied elimination game with less than five minutes remaining is a BS rui midrange fadeaway, and when one of your best players in AD says it felt like they didn't know what they were doing, the coach is trash. He needed to be fired. He should have been fired.

Players like to actually touch the ball now and then. Hard to do that on the Lakers. Keep pushing all your chips in with LeBaby as your winning hand. It's not happening. What he still gives you in scoring he gives up on defense. His points are a wash.

      I agree on Ant. The truth is neither one is a superstar yet. You can't just throw that word around lightly. I mean, Brunson has put in the effort and should be in the conversation for MVP this season, but he's definitely no superstar. As far as superstars go, that's Giannis, Luka, Jokic, Embiid...guys like LeBron, Curry, KD, and MAYBE Harden, Westbrook, Kawhi WERE superstars but really aren't anymore due to age and/or health.

      Kyrie is the only one you can make an argument for. Definitely agree Brunson over Fox, Brown, and Booker. Dbook is overrated - not a superstar.

    Players are elevated to superstar stays too soon. Superstar is Elite an elite level. Brunson’s game is dope, but he’s not there yet.
    That said, there are others considered superstars who aren’t.

    Brou is 100 percent correct. Knicks would have been out of the first round in the west. Knicks might have been a play in team in the west. He beat the injured 76ers. And now don’t have to play giannis because he got hurt. So they get another sub par east team in the pacers. East is such a joke. I can name 10 teams in the west that would beat the knicks in a series

      You realize the Knicks you’re talking about aren’t even at full strength? So injured sixers played an injured Knicks and the Knicks won

      15 and 15 against the west so how many teams you claim , they have no chance ? When they beat everyone already , I Amit they will be heavy underdogs but have been the whole year , and getting to championship game they will clearly have a chance !

      Haliburton and Brunson are star players, and there's many of them. There's only 7-9 superstars, or some say even less.
