1. karl Malone
2. karl Malone
3. dennis rodman
the mailman was shit
if he didn't play with john Stockton he wouldn't have the numbers he does
zero post up game
-
Rodman was 7 time all-defensive first team, 2 time defensive POTY. Not to mention a nWo member and POTUS ally. Remove him from this list at once.
-
Rodman could guard every position on the floor except...maybe...PG. He was also the single greatest offensive rebounder I've ever seen.
-
I agree about Karl Malone but Rodman could dominate a game without taking a shot.
He did an outstanding job guarding Shaq in the playoffs for fucksakes. I can't abide.
-
no doubt the Worm was one of the greatest defensive forwards but his offense was very limited
-
Rodman actually belongs on the "Most underrated" nba forwards list.
I'm calling OP a schmuck until further notice.
-
I’d add Shawn Kemp to the list

Malone was always solid in the middle. You aren't beating Jordan with 2 white boys on the perimeter, just not happening. He may have needed a change of scenery (Portland - Houston) like Dexler to win a championship.
-
Blake griffin was more overrated. At one point people were considering him a top 10 player in the league. He was just a dunker.
Melo was overrated as well.

1. Lebron
2. Curry
3. Steve Nash

I like that you have Curry on there. Steve Nash though? Lebron?
I'm no Lebron fan but he's not really overrated in my eyes.

I’ll await Wiggs’ opinion on this.

You picked two of the greatest forwards ever to be the most overrated. ::)
-
1. Derrick Coleman
2. Shawn Kemp
3. Keith Van Horne
The first two could've been all time greats if they didn't get involved with drugs and weight gain. Once Coleman started to gain weight, he lived behind the 3 point line. He was 6'10". Kemp got fat and watched his playing minutes dwindle with each passing season until he became nothing more than a role player. Van Horne couldn't defend anybody.

Shawn Kemp was too busy making babies to work on his game.

Shawn Kemp was awesome up until 1996 when he lost to the Bulls in the finals. Then he turned into complete shit.

Let me fix the list
1. CARMELO ANTHONY!!!

1. CARMELO ANTHONY!!!
Carmelo is/was a pure scorer. His was really good during his first 8 years in the league. Then he stopped playing defense. Not sure I would call him overrated. Now he's just washed up at age 35.

That was gonna be my addition as well! Scored a ton of points, but was never an efficient player. Was also horribly defensively.
Some of you guys are gonna hate me for this, but I'd also add Pippen to this list. If it wasn't for Jordan carrying him his whole career and getting him 6 rings, he wouldn't be looked at the same way that he is. Dude averaged 16, 6 and 5 for his career and was put on the top 50 list in 1996! There are dozens of players who everyone forgot about that had a similar career to pippen, they just didn't have the good fortune of playing with the G.O.A.T.

You're crazy, dude. Pippen was an absolute stud on both ends of the floor. If it wasn't for Pippen, Jordan would have won NOTHING. How can you say Jordan carried him? That's ridiculous. In 94-95, Pippen carried a Jordan-less Bulls to 55 wins and one win away from the NBA finals. You also forgot to mention he averaged 2 steals a game for his career.
I'm biased because Pippen is my favorite all time player. He played and excelled in the greatest era of basketball. The 90's, when MEN played the game. Not like the powder puffs of today.
-
Kemp, Griffin and Melo maybe...but Malone, Pippen, Rodman....and even dare to say Tim Duncan...are overrated? NOPE

Give Jordan any other halfway decent player and the bulls would have had the same success. He was a good defensive player, but was and is massively overrated! Look at his stats, there are probably at least 2 dozen other players who have similar stat lines and are largely forgotten. Combine that with the fact that Pippen said that Lebron is better than Jordan, and it's the reason I can't fucking stand him! Dude shit on the one person who gave him lifelong notoriety!
-
Tim Duncan?
Trolling or retarded? Has to be one, the other or both.
-
Not bad choices but don't think either are held on some sort of super high pedestal meaning both are known as great players but not in the conversation as greatest ever.
I would say Kemp, out of the ones thrown out on here.
Melo, I think most fans know he was overrated now and Griffin also.
I am going with Williamson in the future for the hype right now.
-
1. Amare Stoudemire
2. Dwight Howard
3. Kevin Garnett

Ooh, Howard is a good one if he is considered a forward.

No that’s Wiggs favourite player. It’s in context to the other guys post.
Duncan is also my second favourite player of all time. I’d never ever have him on there.

Same here. Duncan might be best PF of all time.

Absolutely incorrect. Pippen was instrumental in helping Jordan get over the top and become a champion. It never would've happened without Scottie. Massively overrated??! You have no idea what you're talking about and you don't really know basketball. And he didn't 'shit' on Jordan. Pippen simply said Lebron was a better overall player, and he is as far as filling up a stat sheet goes. Jordan was the best pure scorer in NBA history. And to compare the two is fucking stupid in the first place. Lebron is a point forward SF/PF and Jordan is a 2 guard. Lebron is 6'8", 250 pounds and Jordan was 6'6" and 215 pounds. Apples and oranges.
-
Pippen was like proto-Lebron, he was an amazing all-around player. Very ignorant remarks against him in this thread.
At a minimum he's the best "second banana" (no homo or racist) in NBA history, and that's saying something.
-
Pippen was good enough to be a decoy for D that would otherwise go all to Jordan. Would have been a big star on any other team.

Yes, it's like comparing a quarterback and defensive end in football.

Carmelo Anthony...

he also dated Madonna and Carmen Electra
Rodman is my fav NBA player

Pip was GREAT but he took time to develop, a luxury lottery players today arent often afforded, and that was after 4 years in college.
His game was consistent with or without Jordan, as his numbers the year before, during and after MJ's year away were mostly identical.
My favorite Scottie memory was when he refused to come off the bench because PJax wanted Pip to be a decoy on the game winning shot designed for Kukoc, which Toni made. Then to prove a point when Jordan came back Phil drew up a game winner for Kukoc again knowing Jordan would line up and play.
Funny stuff.

One of the things about Jordan that also makes him better than say a LeBron was that he was actually coach-able even though he had that immense talent.
Result - all those rings.

My favorite Scottie memory was that epic dunk over Patrick Ewing in the Eastern conference finals. Then he stood over him, taunting him. In today's NBA he would have been suspended for a game. My least favorite moment was the situation you mentioned where he refused to come into the game to be a decoy for Kukoc. The Bulls were already down 2-0 in the series and likely would've been down 3-0 had Kukoc missed that shot. Not the best time to throw a hissy fit with so much on the line.
