In theory but you can make the case that he’s not the franchise player at the moment
please don’t debate this im just saying you coulda picked someone else to drive your point
This doesn’t negate the point.

You left Kawhi off the list, which I can only surmise is due to his string of injuries. Beause absent of that, a player with 2 Finals MVPs definitely qualifies as a superstar.
With that in mind, I am not comparing Dame and Ja through the same prism. Dame is in the same boat as Kawhi, Kyrie, AD, and Zion, where they're grading as an incomplete due to their issues with health and availability.
Ja on his own merits is a superstar, a young superstar but a superstar nonetheless. His individual performance says he's one of the best players (27 a game, all star, MVP votes). His teams performance says he leads one of the best teams (2nd seed in the west, playing in the premier showcase games in the upcoming season). And his status as one of the most highlighted players in the league (national campaigns, viral dunks, and highlight plays) all speak to him being positioned as a superstar player.
Ugh midnight word salad

30-41 playoff record with only 1 trip to a conference finals in his career. I mean based off some of the requirements being listed in here...Iverson wasn't a superstar *shrugs*

Well the same can be said for Westbrook and I think I saw someone in here say he isn't a superstar.

Probably because Kawhi isn't on the team anymore and hasn't been for like 4 years while that Embiid shot literally just happened a few months ago. Keep up with the times Mcfly

That kawhi highlight is literally the biggest one of Embiids career right now but if you want to flex about a game winner that led to a second round out I ain't gonna hold you.
I'm comfy with the side of history my team's on.

Because it's meme worthy, and the internet is unfortunately full of haters such as yourself that thrive on negativity brother Freeman.That kawhi highlight is literally the biggest one of Embiids career right now but if you want to flex about a game winner that led to a second round out I ain't gonna hold you.

Look, Embiid even got Canada's greatest export since Celine Dion fangirling
Those events happened THIS year Grandpa

I'm done with this btw. I promise you don't have to keep embarrassing yourself.
Weird bag to be in at 3 in the morning. Could've just said why you think the nigga is a superstar and kept it pushing. But you wanna throw a fit. Fuck out my face man.
