re: Who is the next NBA "Superstar"?

As for Conley and Lowry, no doubt they have gotten better. Tons of players do. Neither will ever be super stars. Name me a player that has reached super star status in their 9th year? Lowry just had a career year..in his 9th season. I just don't get how these guys have anything to do with the discussion.

This guy gets it. I'd argue there are only 3-4 superstars in the league right now: Lebron, Durant, Kobe, and Duncan (he at least was, don't know if he still counts). I think it all really depends on what your definition of a superstar is. I think Paul and Love are close to being top 5 players in the league, and I wouldn't even call them superstars because Paul has never made a conference finals and Love has never even made the playoffs.
