He's one of the only white players from that time that would make some noise in today's game. He wouldn't be a star but he would be a better scoring version of Chris Anderson.

:what: are u trolling nicca? Explain yourself neggs pending :birdman:

Mane Tom Chambers would not b a star in today's NBA. Love is the best white player in the NBA, but he's not a star. White stars in today's NBA must "blacken up" their game (Jason Williams) OR have a gimmick (Chris Anderson). He had/has neither = No star.

Tom Chambers wasn't a star back then so why would he be one now? When he was getting selected as an All Star and was clearly the best player on his team it didn't mean anything because his team wasn't making the playoffs. When he finally got on a playoff team he was the 6th man behind Charles Barkley and Dan Majerle

Dan Majerle:heh:

I know Chambers wouldnt be a star in todays NBA :snoop:

But love isnt? Some say he is the best PF in the L right now... He is damn near a 20-15 guy, is playing for the olympic team, All-NBA second team, finished sixth in MVP voting,and was an all star after leading the L in rebounding two years in a row. What more do u want from the guy sir :what:

Edit: Never mind u called Chris Anderson a star..... I'm done talking to u sir :snoop:

Tom was past prime when Barkley came to the team to help him on the Suns. From 87-90, Tom was prime.

With all the stars there were around that time, Bird, Magic, Barkley, Drexler, and even Jordan. Tom was good but he wasn't getting no shine with them around.

Pretty good with those smilies but tha fact remains KL is not a star an he is best white player. Define star? Chris Anderson is a white star with a fraction of Love's stats. Its not that hard man...appeal makes u a star moreso than ability.
