Which superstar do you think faces the most pressure to win a ring this season? (alien.top)

Feels like the answer is never someone who already has one so it's between guys like Tatum/Luka/Embiid/Booker/SGA

Out of that group I'd probably go with Tatum because of how stacked the Celtics are overall and how many near misses they've had(could also see Embiid but I don't think anyone truly sees the Sixers roster as championship caliber or actually expects them to win this year)

I want to say Tatum, but I'm not 100% sure they are actually better, just different. I love the KP move, but they lost Smart in order to do it. Getting Jrue sounded solid, but they gave up an All-Defense level big (and are now counting on Kornet for those minutes) and the 6MOTY. They also lost Grant Williams for nothing.

The Celtics sure are paying a lot of money for their team, but they might have overthought their moves this offseason.

KP is legit playing like a all NBA player this year love Smart but he don't come close to the impact Porzingis have offensively. Trading Jrue for Timelord and Brogdon was also easy considering Rob is out for the year and the defense is even better then last year. I don't know how anybody can still think that the Celtics made the wrong move when so far both Jrue and Porzingis been positives
