The NBA's 3 biggest stars (not best players, biggest stars) are 36, 37, and 40 years old. They were a combined 1-2 in the playoffs this year.

The league's best hope is that Wemby can stay healthy and just become the most dominant big since Kareem, or that the Lakers new ownership group just finds a way to circumvent the salary cap and become a Luka led Evil Empire. Which takes us right back to "As soon as Luka starts winning championships".

NBA definitely wanted/wants Luka to take the crown, but yea LA needs some big roster moves. Wemby could also be a huge star with some health.

I wouldn’t count out SGA, they have just made no real moves to market him. He’s going to be around a while and he’s on a young squad poised to do some damage. And I don’t think he’s going to be MJ/LeBron/Kobe etc., he just hasn’t been the beneficiary of the hype machine because he wasn’t the anointed one. Nobody expected him to be this good.
