Rarely do we have a fan base in the NBA that is more concerned with the logo on the front of the jersey than the name on the back. Compare that to the NFL where we see generations of fans passionately rooting for a singular team as if they were a part of it since the team’s inception.
So, if we are only concerned with stars, the guy who brings the ball up the court and sets up each play should be the most important player on the team. The point guard should be a star, and generally they are.
