NBA奖杯是每个球员最期盼的幸运奖杯，但以下这五位超级球星，比起其他人来说更需要一次总冠军去证明自己，哪怕是一次总决赛之旅来安稳人心。他们被公认为某个位置最好的或是最好之一的球员，他们还从未带领球队摘得冠军荣耀。篮球是一项团体运动，不能对这些球员过分苛责。可这五位球星是各自球队毫无争议的领袖，在某种意义上，他们被期待领导球队迈向成功。首先来看第一位领袖——甜瓜。

1卡梅隆-安东尼——纽约尼克斯队

2012-13数据：28.7分，2.6次助攻，6.9个篮板

2012-13球队状况：常规赛54胜28负，二轮出局

2012-13 Stats: 28.7 PPG, 2.6 APG, 6.9 RPG

2012-13 Team Outcome: 54-28 Regular Season, Second-round exit

         安东尼继续成为今日联盟中两极最分化的球员之一。不是因为任何丑闻或是不和谐事件，仅仅是因为球迷对于他的比赛评价就将安东尼推上了风口浪尖上。一些人会争得面红耳赤，认为无论是球队还是球队战绩，安东尼是全联盟最好的球员；而另一些人的批评则尖刻了许多，他们认为安东尼缺少组织进攻的能力，在攻守两端也缺乏持续度。

       事实是，无论你觉得安东尼怎样，他不仅是全联盟最好的进攻手之一，还是近30年来我们见过最致命的进攻武器。安东尼也认为现在是时候在他的职业生涯中跨出下一步了。

Anthony continues to be one of the more polarizing basketball players in today’s league. No, not to any fault of his own, and not due to any recent scandal or negative event, but simply due to how his game is judged by the hoops-loving public. While some will argue until blue in the face that Anthony is one of the league’s best regardless of the game or season outcome, others are far more harsh in their criticism of his lack of playmaking and consistent effort on both ends. The reality is, no matter how you feel about Anthony, he remains not only one of the best offensive players in the game, but one of the more lethal offensive weapons we’ve seen over the last 30 years. Even though Anthony’s Knicks qualified for the semi-finals for just the first time in well over a decade, the time has come for him to lead this team even further. After witnessing, or even suffering through (if you will), several of his 2003 NBA Draft class contemporaries win multiple titles, we are sure Anthony would also agree that it is well-beyond time for him to take that next step in his career.
