Overrated by whom? I think most realize and acknowledge he’s an excellent complementary player. Among the best in that regard. Great two-way player. But also not the type of talent you build your entire team around expecting championships. He could be a #1. But a team with him as a #1 likely has a ceiling less than championship aspirations. He didn’t make the 75 team and there are players that did that are arguably worse. So how would he be “most” overrated and by whom?
Now is he one of the most overrated by himself and his teammates? Yeah, sure, maybe. I don’t think he belonged on the 75 list. Not more than some of the other names left off, including Vince and Manu and T-Mac and Bernard King. But if he and his teammates really believe he’s the next one in line, then yeah. Pretty overrated by them.
Then again, I question several selections like Dame and Melo, Reggie and Scottie and Dominique, heck, Dave Bing, Bob Cousy. I can find flaws and arguments to exclude all those guys. Nique ain’t do but look sweet dunking the ball and statpad points just like Dame. Reggie could shoot the ball as well as anyone in history but was not above average in any other aspect of the game. Probably made it because he played until he was 50 and he had those e Lee moments against the Knicks. Cousy never shot over 40% from the field in an era where there were no threes. And I know some revere Pippen, sometimes essentially to discredit Jordan, but have him get drafted by Seattle and he would have been Derrick McKey.
The 75 team is just dumb in general. It’s a gratuitous, self-fellating, look at me exercise the league should have just decided against.
