I agree and disagree but the biggest grievance for me on why there is no “face” of the league amongst young cats is most don’t have a charm/charisma to them
Everybody he listed had a “IT” factor
SGA ain’t got it
Hali ain’t got it
Ant aint got it
Book ain’t got it
And so on
Yeah they have a nice game but it’s not something that translates off the court
Steph showed little kids and short nikkas they could make it
Lebron is Ironman status
KD even with his temper just has that pure shot
Mikes charm was through the fukking roof in the 90s
Same for Magic, he looked like you could just have a good convo
Bird was

for certain fans but his game was just too hard to write him off
Hell even Barkley and his campaign of not being a role model had people like

AI/Rodman were faces of the NBA as much as they tried not to make them
Them nikkas was just rockstars at one point
As a player you just have to have that uncanny gravitas that nobody can replicate
These kids just don’t have that and I don’t think they ever will
And this not coming from a hating old nikka
I just don’t see it with the current crop of players
