    I disagree. We'll never know unless/until he gets traded. All I do know is that his two NBA teams (Atlanta, Boston) were #1 seed and he won the title (or 2?) in college.

    This IS knowing, self-deprecating humor, right?

    Please dont think Im trolling you but Horford has the same amount of rebounds that Kyrie does. Has the most turnovers on the team, isnt a great scorer, I really dont understand what you think he does thats great enough to have him as a top 10 guy. I mean we all have opinions, I wouldnt mind Horford on my team though Id say Nurkic has more potential than horford does. I think horfords a great glue guy, but a superstar? I dont see it.

    Yeah, he's definitely going to be their weak link. Be interesting to see what kind of mpg he averages. Maybe he can evolve into a useful role-player, like Ron Harper did for the Bulls.

    When Simmons and fultz dont take or make shots further than 10-15 feet and reddick is off philly’s going to have bad nights.

    Man Boston has so much talent. We aren't even in the same planet as them.

    Horford's contributions go beyond the boxscore. I didn't use the term "superstar." Everyone has a different definition for that. Fuck, Mark Cuban doesn't consider Westbrook to be a superstar. Nevertheless, here's my Top 10 in no particular order:

    Durant
    LeBron
    Giannis
    AD
    Curry
    Dame
    Harden
    Horford
    Westbrook
    Oladipo

    Embiid, Gobert, and Simmons are close behind. And Kawhi has to show us if he's still the same guy he was two years ago.
