Last year around this time I stated that KG was not a super star and people laughed at me. How many people still think KG is still a super star?

IMO, there are currently 4 super stars in this league. Lebron, Kobe, Wade, and Chris Paul. A super star is a guy that can dominate any game and lead his team to a victory. If KG dominates one game in 15, we are lucky.

howard?

Tim?

The guy just lead the team to a title.....what the **** is wrong with you......how many hours do they allow you to have recess there.

So is PP a superstar? Or did his window close this season?

Garnett is still a superstar if you guys dont want him send him to Chicago. He is better than anyone we got in our frontcourt.

Before I say anything, yes, I am not some crazy fan that thinks we would win without KG.

But no, I don't think he is a superstar. I thought he was for the first couple regular season games he ever played with us then it gradually went away to me. Not because he isn't talented, but just because as the season went on I fully believed that Pierce was just as vital to this team's success as KG. KG isn't the player he used to be when he was a "superstar".

Still a great, great player but not top 5 anymore IMO.

They even said Allen Iverson is still a super star.

Maybe when he was with Philadelphia, not so much anymore.

Superstars to me:
LeBron
Kobe
CP3
Wade
Dwight

(may still be considered superstars, but are definitely heading south and very close to become "just" a star)
TD
KG

The interesting thing about your list of Superstars( Though I see you added Howard after the first list ): Kobe, Wade, CP3 amd James is that they are all point guards/swingmen who can create thier own offense.

Howard, Duncan and KG are dependent on someone getting them the ball.

IS KG a 'Superstars" who can get the ball from up at half court and find a way to score. No

I feel Big Men are more superstars for there defense and rebounding then wings and point guards.

So KG is still a superstar but not forthe same reasons Kobe, Wade, CP3 and James are.

KG did'nt lead the Celtics to a title. PP did.

Neither KG or PP are superstars anymore....but, they're the foundation of the best trio in the league.

So did Ray Allen and Pierce. They aren't super stars. It's a question. Either answer it or move on up. Kefa461, I would one day want to me you on the streets. You're a little bitch im my opionion.

Exactly, closely followed by Ray Allen.

Are you kidding. Pierce has never been considered a super star. He is an all star, maybe one of the top 20-30 players in the league.

I agree with you about big men and the way they are "superstars" but KG and Duncan have both lost a step offensively IMO which is why I no longer consider them superstars. To me, it is just a coincidence that everyone but Dwight on my list are swingmen. Dwight Howard is there because he is a FORCE both on offense and defense.

So your telling me that Gabe Pruitt is not a SuperStar???

KG isn't playing like a superstar at this moment and neither is Paul but I believe that once the playoffs come around this question is gonna seem foolish.

We may not be laughing as hard as last year, but it looks like we're still laughing...

KG brings a lot more to the table than just scoring and rebounding averages. Last year he was considered as a leading candidate for MVP because of his intangibles, and what he meant to his team, and this year....well it's not the halfway point...Chill.

A lot of people have a different definition for a superstar.

The thing is, winning a ring is all that matters. And in the playoffs I'll take Duncan, and KG over most of those guys on your superstar list.
