Do i think SAR is a superstar? NO. But these days they are few and far between. Is he a star player, one who can carry a team, be a force?YES.
ELTON BRAND-Top talent with heart,probably on par with SAR, but i havn't seen this defense you proclaim.
JERMAINE ONEAL-Obviously you obtain your opinions from preseason magazines. They all where in love with Oneal.But what has he done. Really, tell me.
RASHEED WALLACE-Superior talent but, and this is a huge but, his attitude(on and off the court)put him behind SAR.
PAU GASOL-Defense? where is the D. Someday maybe but not today.
Your comparison of SAR and HOWARD says all that needs to be said of your knowledge of talent.
