Chris Broussard: Jalen Brunson is NOT a Superstar!!!

[god shamgod]

Brunson a crafty mf with great footwork

But this site hated harden for doing the same thing.he manipulates tf out refs 11 ftas a game jumping into defenders keep that same energy

His level of clutch shooting you almost have to be a super star. And he does it in the regular season. Luckily, he can prove it this post season. Or not.

 

[010101]

averaging 40 in the postseason right now who gives a fukk about that superstar label

more impressive because he has zero outwardly apparent physical advantages

just walking down the court then performing surgery with his feet HA

I'm tired of these piece of shyt gate keepers in sports media.

Their opinions don't mean shyt and half the time they're 100 percent wrong.

he averaged 6.5 free throw attempts a game during the season and it went up to 11because he’s averaging 44 minutes a game in the playoffs

And they forget that Harden couldnt do anything but foul bait in the playoffs.
If JB was doing this on some who-gives-a-shyt team like OKC everyone would be in love with him.

Well he's certainly playing better than the average guy.

How are we defining superstar? My definition is

A star is one of the top players in their sport and fans know them.

A superstar is when people know who you even when they don't watch your sport. Think Lebron, Serena, Canelo, Ronaldo, Tiger, Bolt etc.

Brunson is a star by my definition. Not a bad thing because I don't think we have many Superstars in general across all sports.

The term superstar is used loosely these days

100% agree.

If you follow the league, you know JB is a walking bucket and fun to watch. If hoop fans know you and you deliver most nights, that's a star. Superstars transcend their sports and are famous. Brunson could walk down most streets with a hoodie on and no one would say anything. Steph Curry does the same thing...he's probably getting some attention. Bron or MJ doing that would get mobbed on sight.

Clear superstar. What a win. They lose by double digits without him

Steph Curry is a famous superstar breh

Steph Curry is a famous superstar breh

He is...but even among superstars there's levels.

D-Wade was a superstar guard but he's not on the same level of fame as Kobe, even before Kobe's death.

Hakeem was a superstar center but not on the same level as Shaq in terms of notoriety.

 

[RickyGQ]

I wish people would be serious for one fukking minute. He's leading the playoffs in shot attempts, USG rate, drives to the basket and is probably top 5 in minutes. Of course he's going to get fouled more.

Who’s more famous than Steph Curry other than LeBron?

 

[Shadow King]

To revisit this, in sports (basketball particularly) I don't need fame levels to estimate a superstar, only play. It's hard to give it to him because I question if you could win it all with him as the #1 but he obviously produces like one.
