That's awesome that Klay scored 60, I'm genuinely happy for him, Mo Williams scored 52 in a game last year does that make him a superstar? Corey Brewer scored 51 a few years back, same story?
I absolutely do consider him one. I read a pretty good article making the case for him being top 2 point guard of all time, although I think that's a bit of a stretch.Do you guys consider CP3 to be a franchise guy, never been to the conference finals?
Ha ha, as soon as this game finished I was expecting someone to bring this up, where were you for the other 20 games?
I have Klay on my fantasy squad and he's still not a franchise guy. He can get shoot, but really does nothing else. Rebs, Assists, nada. Just does not create at all for others. I'm also not drinking the cool aide that he's such a 2 way player. Solid no doubt though.
How many great shooters (and Klay is a great shooter) have played alongside 2 recent MVPs? Incredible talent. Same with Klay, amazing performance tonight, pretty special, but he can't even get double teamed, who ya gonna leave open? KD, Steph? The talent is crazy on this squad.
James Harden is another good example of a franchise player biding his time on a team with two potential MVPs to bring himself into the spotlight when he was traded. When he was coming off the bench as a supersub, it was hard to extrapolate that into being a player being in contention for MVP.No doubt the talent is ridiculous in GSW but I think I lean the way of klay would get more opportunities if he was the lead guy on a team and probably show more all round game much like H Barnes has done this year. Anyone who can outplay two current/previous mvps has to be considered great and hes done it to both guys while with and against, rewind to last years WCF. Have to disagree with you defensively, he always guards the other teams best guy and keeps them in front of him. Agree he gets all the space he needs when playing with Golden State but when you can lob them in from 30 feet on the regular you make space wherever you play

Name me 10 players better than Anthony Davis and Demarcus Cousins.

But what has 10 players got to do with it? I told you the definition of a superstar already.By your own omission, you can't name 10 players better than them. And you would still not consider them as superstars? What exactly is your definition of a superstar?

Hard to argue with that.
I think the term "superstar" will never have a true definition on what it actually means and is highly subjective. I absolutely consider Allen Iverson a superstar for example, and he's never made it to the conference finals more than once in his career. It's one of those things which will never be able to be put to rest.
Timberwolves showing some fight in the 3rd qtr v Warriors - up 10 after 3 - 3rd qtrs have usually been terrible! won the 3rd 30-18.
LaVine 5/7 from 3 so far
