No, even if edwards win a title this year he is still far away to be the face of the nba..wembanyama is the only player that can take that spot after lebron.
I kind of thought this could happen as they are some injuries' that do not need immediate surgery they can kind of heal on there own if given enough time. I am thinking this is where they said "It will hurt but it won't do anymore damage and it might heal if you give it a few months of rehab" If...
Highest winning percentage and zero finals appearances.
One could argue that the Spurs wasted two MVP players with subpar rosters around them.
Peak Lebron was amazing, but his stat-padding and media machinery ever since he joined the Lakers has been ridiculous.
His Eastern conference...
Lakers aren't known for bailing other teams out of shitty contracts. They are known for being the destination where other teams' franchise players dart off to when they opt out.
This is just some college kid/aspiring NBA scout or writer... but I generally like his takes. Here is his big board. Definitely counter to popular opinion.

Him saying it’s a little weird over there and it’s not for everybody is very telling to me. I thought Rudy would have nothing but praise for the Spurs.
Expected DPOY of the year result. The On/Off defensive splits for Wemby are compelling but HOPEFULLY someone in the front office looks at that and sees it as a glaring need to improve the team around Wemby, as opposed to some slight that really doesn't matter.
If a really good PG is not available or as rare as a unicorn if a free agent, could we find an acceptable point forward? We've seen some in the league that were more than adequate as starters. Of course, you can say they are as rare as unicorns as well. :smokin
While they didn't have any titles, the Spurs already had a top-3, if not the #1, all time winning % in NBA history prior to Duncan. I would not say the Spurs were a "subpar franchise" before Duncan's arrival.
I love Timmy as much as the next guy, and have him Top 5, but no - I don't put him...
I'm well aware of the data, but the point is bringing up one game as some sort of proof of concept is nonsense, yet typical of hot take culture.
It's the same game those with agendas against certain players play after every game their team wins without them (absent context), yet somehow the...
The latter was a big board, not mock draft and in both cases the crux was basically he'd fill the obvious need for shot creation/shooting.
Neither seemed to consider the obvious though, which is the Spurs rigidity and longstanding preference for a bigger lead guard.
I always hated these arbitrary all-time lists.
Even just the numbers don't tell the entire story.
For me it's really simple. Basketball is a team sport, it's all about which team wins.
We all have favorite players, but ultimately people support teams and not just players.
No player ever has...
If a player is exempted from the Combine because of overseas commitments, how does that impact the medical reports? It Topic's going to be from some Bratislavan doctor/local veterinarian?
Could just be playing to the audience, but another prominent player from the inner city who says the Spurs "weren't for him" . . . but remember, it's just race baiting, conspiracy theories and strawman arguments.
