While I tend to agree, I look back at past NBA Championship teams and I see

Lebron
Dirk
Wade x2
Garnett
Duncan x4
Shaq x4
Kobe x5
Jordan x6
Olajuwon x2
Bird x3
Magic x5
Isiah x2

All time greats win all the championships. They also usually have a great cast around them, great coaches, and deep benches.

A team like the Pistons is the only team in the last 30 years or so that didn't have a true "stud", even though Billups was regarded as one of the best players in the league. But they also had a lockdown D w Ben Wallace, Prince, Billups, and Rip. Their bench also went 7 deep.


The Pels need AD23 to be that guy. This team also needs a leader. I don't see anyone on this team that can be that guy at this point. I think that is important when it comes to that next big piece we go after.

I really think people are underestimating Rivers' potential. It seems like every year we keep saying "if that guy could shoot he'd be a stud", so there's no guarantee he'll live up to his potential, but he's got the swagger and the lane penetration ability to be a team leader if he could learn to shoot and finish.
