    I'd actually argue that Vince Carter deserves to be in megastar status conversation. He's so well known everywhere in the world and was probably the most well known NBA star in the early 2000s. Even people who aren't NBA fans have seen his dunks from the dunk contest/Olympics as that was one of the most watched videos in the early years of TH-cam. He's not on Lebron or Mike level, but he right in that tier below, certainly above guys like Tatum lol.

      I think this is showing that they cant. Rashad sometimes has odd viewpoints but Gil inability to ever admit being wrong or to let anyone have a difference of opinion from him without being insulted and mocked is kinda wild. And Luka jersey sales at 6 is amazing. Dude is a superstar that's going to be a megastar. He is insanely popular overseas and is now incredibly popular hear aswell. And many folks might not find his game as attractive as a uber athlete but that's what will make him a megastar, ability to somewhat relate cause most people aren't freak athletes and play his style outside or in gyms. When Curry was just shooting threes from 2009 to about 2014 nobody could have predicted dude would be a megastar and yet here we are. He is relatable and now everyone wanna play like Curry. Gil hates foreign players so much. Greek Freak is a mega star, his Nike shoes selling really well (especially for a big that plays his style) proves it and he has been in top 5 jersey sales last few years.

I have only played maybe 5 times in my life with someone where I thought omg this is NBA level athleticism. And no matter what you do or how many squats you do or calf raises, you gotta be born with that. But yeah that being said Luka is like 6’7 and rather quick for his size compared to an avg player.
