It’s clear he’s next in line for the throne of best SG in the league.
Dating back to the 90s Jordan had it first, then Iverson is arguable then Kob, then D Wade had an argument but I don’t think he was ever better than Bean. Then of course Harden ran with the title for years and now it’s Book’s time
One title as the best player, or multiple titles with the current lineup.
What if he is the best player in the current lineup?
I guess it’d depend a lot on how good he was on the championship run and how good KD was. Like if KD is hurt and doesn’t play, then yeah Booker surpasses AI in terms of reputation among fans. But if KD is doing his normal thing at a HOF level and Book is 2% better, then I doubt people would automatically put him above AI on the strength of one ring on a super team.
For instance, I don’t think people put Paul Pierce above AI, even with his ring and finals MVP, because he only did it once with a loaded team.
Yeah basically and it would have to be with substantial performances he can’t just kinda pull a Klay Thompson 4 rings type run
