Rip Hamilton is great to watch
Does anyone else love watching him play? He always running around and zig zagging through screens. It's hilarious. I love the cat and mouse games he plays with defenders.
Why has he never gotten the credit he deserves? I think he is the guy that everyone will talk about as "most underrated" 10 years from now on internet forums.

Hamilton's a basketball player, not a highlight reel machine. That's why most people don't appreciate him.

Explain.

I guess he means that he's not some crazy 360 dunking machine, but he's just a solid, sound fundamental player.
I'd take him over Vince Carter.

For me, a player like Rip is more entertaining to watch than Lebron, Kobe,Wade,etc. Watching Rip is entertaining as heck. Seriously. Yesterday, I found myself observing him for 5 minutes of the game and he was insane. The guy goes all out.
And what about his defense? For a guy who expends so much energy on offense, his defense is pretty good too..

He's killed Ray Allen last night. Did anyone see how this dude was blowing right by Allen? He made it look easy out there. I think Rip is the key to the Detroit/Boston series. If he can continue to punish Allen the Pistons are going to take the series.
