How Ja and Zion turned out set American hoops back a decade. That a big reason the top MVP superstars this era are foreigners - Jokic, Giannis, SGA, Luka, Embiid, Wemby.

Ja was supposed to be what DRose couldn't cause of injury and nikka miss 30 games a season and anytime he been in playoff its a guaranteed injury. nikka talkin bout he a popular loner as a grown ass man SMFH. Zion was supposed to be a Charles Barkley level talent at least and fatass only had 2 seasons where he played 40 or more games. We ain't even seen this nikka in the playoffs and it's been 6 seasons in NBA.

shyt nasty. These 2 major reasons for the fall of American hoops at the superstar level.

I don’t ageee with that. You got Anthony Edwards holding it down still. Cade Cunningham is here. Devin Booker is still young enough to really kick things into gear in the 2nd half of his career, and Jalen Green still has the potential to be a superstar. Tatum and Hali will be back. We’re about to see what the Flagg hype is really hitting for. I don’t think the situation is that dire.

Look at the names ya listed and then look at the MVP level superstars of this era again.

Jokic, Giannis, SGA, Luka, Embiid, Wemby (he technically not there yet but injuries aside everyone expect him to be)

You listed Ant, Cade, Booker, Jalen Green (LOL), Tatum, Hali, Flagg,,,, Depth is never the question. We'll always have the most overall hoops talent and best overall due to numbers.

But just at the top tier superstar MVP level nah we don't got it. None of those players you mentioned even on that tier or sniffin it. We still got 2010s American hoopers finishin All NBA teams the last few seasons ike Bron, Steph, KD, Kawhi, Harden all deep into they 30s.

Closest to that level we got is JT and he was never a serious MVP candidate even when puttin up 30/9/5 on top seeds highest he finished was 4th and ain't never had a 1st or even 2nd place MVP vote. And he just tore his achilles. Ant might be 2nd best of the new nikkas and we seen what he looked like on the court wit Luka last year in WCF and this year wit SGA. He not on that level either.

Ja and Zion were 2 of the only American hoopers from this 2020s era so far that had the talent that could have been in the company wit the foreigners and they both flopped.
