​@@smokey949megastar isn't a thing. They're just superstars with better marketability. There are superstar talents that fade to obscurity because of small market teams/lack of social presence. Luka is 100% a superstar, like Dirk and Timmy D were. Just in a market that isn't considered high stakes and universally reputable. LeBron and Steph are legacy superstars, due to their established names and consistent production that still spans today. There are nba STARS, with the talent of possible superstars, but lack the cultural and league impact to be in that tier. That's for the ANT, SGA, Spida type players. Usually the biggest indicator of a superstar is contextually a combination of individual production, team success directly attributed to that production, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, how it translates into the postseason. The current NBA superstars are LeBron, Steph, Giannis, Luka, Embiid (still on fraud watch tho), Tatum, and Jokic SGA is VERY close. He needs a good playoff run to push him over the top.

[@Aubknowball17]

Since 2000 the only Mega Stars both off and on court has been Shaq Kobe Lebron Steph

[@Aubknowball17]

@@rodney9982 wasn’t that big overseas

[@ahmadhasan9446]

Some of these former players be talking absolute shhit😂

[@mikeg8234]

Superstars: Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, KD, Tatum, Curry, Lebron, Kawhi, Luka and SGA. Stars: AD, Booker, Halliburton, Jimmy, Kyrie, Ant, Brunson, D Mitch, Fox, Dame, Ja, Trae, PG13

[@Eniggma39]

I think Jimmy and Kyrie are superstar. Kyrie still leaving off 2016 and Jimmy is Jimmy Buckets

[@lbape]

disagree with kawhi when he won his ring turn him to super star

[@3self]

Bro sga gotta do something in the playoffs before claiming he’s a superstar off one great season

[@3self]

Waittttr lol how is SGA a superstar but a champion like kawhi isn’t ? 🧐

[@mikeg8234]

Kawhi a Superstar for sure but he injured all the time, that’s why I had him as a Star. If he gets injured in the playoffs again, it’s probably his last year as a Superstar.

[@noahjones3769]

I would much rather go with KMart's definition of only being 2 superstars. At least you don't have to worry about the term "superstar" or "megastar" being thrown around loosely to just anyone.

[@disispeter]

The best thing about 2000s Steve Francis when the crossover highlight reels

[@dt823]

As crazy as it sounds I get what Gil is saying. A true superstar is someone who is either bigger than the game or someone who knows almost nothing about basketball will know using jersey sales and fan voting wouldn’t disprove his point simply bc the ppl buying these jerseys and voting in the asg are atleast casual fans. There are people who know absolutely nothing about basketball but know lebron and Steph curry

[@eduardoalvarenga8973]

But he said Steve Francis was a superstar, bro. And VC, and Tmac. None of those guys were ever close to that level of fame that you are talking about. He's just has a crazy bias towards the 00s

[@Draeca]

Superstar means Gil remembers your name.

[@lakerfan2874]

A superstar can take a team to the Finals with what they have. We have a lot of franchise stars that everyone claims are superstars, but they haven't done anything in the league except be a huge regular season stat padder. An all-star is a complimentary piece that will help the franchise star or superstar win a ring. Role-players are one-dimensional players ready to play for any team. Then we have the benchwarmers and journeymen who will either stay with one team or always go to more than one team after 1 season because they're good enough for one team that season, or stay on one team for multiple years like Thanasis because of reasons being clear to be seen, or the team likes them that much. We also have stars who aren't always voter for being an all-star due to other stars more popular than them.

[@TheLoyalKey]

Don’t forget LeBron avg 37ppg on McCants

[@Cfcfinest]

Being a superstar is how much you're known on a global scale. As a person who isn't from the US the only guys that would get mobbed in my country (UK) are Steph and LeBron. The rest may get recognised here and there but they'll primarily have their piece of mind. Literally happened to Jimmy when he came to London. Also happened to Giannis when he went back to Nigeria. No one knew him,

[@peezydabeatmonster8112]

Exactly I don't get how ppl don't understand that

[@TheDJJProductions00]

That point loses all logic when Gil brings up Steve Francis thoguh

Jokic could definitely move a shoe, dentists be rocking the hell out of em

[@liquel1603]

Basketball roleplayers are defining who are the superstars 😂. What a funny joke this squad is.

[@eahco8476]

For me superstar means you’ve transcended basketball into pop culture, you’re a superstar if casual to non nba watchers know who you are for being him on the court, that’s just my opinion as a super casual nba fan

[@WorldwideWyatt]

This is the first time I’ve ever seen McCants cook.

[@dreasdwolfox3435]

this man said steve francis lmaoooo

[@professortoketcg]

Gil is the definition of “he just be saying shit 90% of the time”

[@javalinjav]

Maybe he means superstar needs to transcend his market or even the NBA. Peoples mom’s know who Lebron, Jordan, and Kobe are. But they probably aren’t going to know who Luca is.

[@valdivws]

That Yao Ming take was crazy

[@alvinavance5040]

He’s absolutely right lebron and Steph is the absolute correct answer there in there on stratosphere

[@edgardoMurnia]

Steph and LeBron.... no Jokic, no Giannis, no Embiid, no Luka... What those players have in common? Let me think?

[@BiggestBirdonMars]

Low laughing got me laughing 😂😂😂

[@3825004]

I actually get what Kmart is saying. He means bigger than the game. Which I agree with. Steph and LBJ are bigger than the game.

[@radical_drift1019]

Steve francis had me weak XDDD

[@UnkFloyd]

It’s about marketability and personality

[@_ogzay]

Basically what I’m hearing is “since I’m not as funny during interviews as Anthony Edwards then I can’t be a superstar”
