    Drawing star comparisons unfair to "the next big thing."It think this article makes it points. Even the guys who got over the expectations (Kobe and Dirk), never really actually became "the next --------". The best they could do was that the new guys were compared to them, instead of vice versa.

    I think most of the comparisons are not fair. But I understand comparing Kobe to MJ, and even Lebron. Even though he is only 21 the guy is putting up like 30/7/7 that's just crazy when he is only 21. But yea most comparisons are not fair.

    well if it puts so much presure on them why dont they just say im no MJ. and make it public. the hype will be there but this way so will the truth, and if you do that i dont see how that can add pressure to someone.

Wade, Lebron, everyone always says that, but to no avail.
