NBA Players Speak: Most Overrated Player

[hitmanyr2k]

Anyone that thinks Big Z has EVER been a true all-star level player is a freakin moron He made the all-star team mainly because the east centers at the time just flat out sucked. There wasn't much of a choice.

LeBron James has never had decent talent until this season.

Same with Mo Williams

Boozer.

And he had a good team last year.

The East was terrible in 07. Getting swept in the finals is not an accomplishment.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

granger? no

[Mr Bones]

At this point, I'd say Arenas. After signing a monster contract he missed almost 2 years with injuries and then behaved like an idiot and sent his team into complete tank and rebuild mode.

[mystargtr34]

LaMarcus Aldridge is over rated. Doesnt really do anything other than score. Even his scoring is over rated, scoring 90% of his points of fade away jumshots. Jumjpshots = no drawing double teams, not getting opposing big's into foul trouble.

Doesnt really rebound, or play much defense/protect the rim either. Would be a nice third option on a contending team though. Or nice first option on the Spurs.

[mystargtr34]

I didnt think T-Mac was even rated anymore, and i can see why Granger is over rated, but i can think of alot more over rated players.

[Pelicans78]

LaMarcus is overrated. He won't ever be a go-to-guy type of player. He's perfectly suited for carrying Roy's jock strap.

[Pelicans78]

I would even take David West over Aldridge.

That said, the Bulls were absolutely stupid for taking Tyrun Thomas over Aldridge just as the Bobcats were pathetic for taking Morrison over Brandon Roy who was clearly the best player in the draft. Can't believe how scouts missed on him, especially as he manhandled a stacked UConn team in the Sweet 16 that year.

[JoeTait75]

Boozer.

And he had a good team last year.

The East was terrible in 07. Getting swept in the finals is not an accomplishment.

He had Boozer for one year, and other than Boozer and Big Z, the rest of his supporting cast from that team was garbage. They had Kevin Ollie and Eric Williams in the starting lineup.

I actually think the rest of the Cavaliers around LeBron NOW are underrated. But he did not have a particularly good team around him his first 3-4 years in the league, up to and including 2007.

[jacobdrj]

Lebron is def overrated. Already given GOAT talk which is completely undeserved. Team full of All-Stars still can't win .

I thought the East won the all-star game this season... Certainly you are not referring to any Cavs roster of the past decade, because that would make you look silly...

And Portland Oden over Durant
