    Default More overrated, Chris Bosh or Kevin Love?

    Both are supposedly top tier Power Forwards, I don't think either are top 5 at their position. Both have statistics that look better then their skillsets.

    Which player is the most overrated?

    Dunno but both are pretty damn overrated



    Neither could win more than 2 playoff games on their own



    The only reason they got/getting max deals is because of LeBron

    Love is overrted. Some called him top 5 Player in 2014.

    But Bosh is properly rated. Helped the Heat to win 2 Chips and was their "do-it-all"-bigman. And no-one calls him top5-player.

    Chris Bosh can actually defend guys who are about his size and is a pretty good help defender. K-Love is a terrific offensive player, but a garbage ass defender.

    I feel like I used to underrate Bosh and overrate K-Love.

    PF's:
    1. Anthony Davis
    2. Blake Griffin
    3. LaMarcus Aldridge
    4/5. Chris Bosh
    4/5. Kevin Love

    He was. He won 40 games in the stacked Western Conference with what was the worst supporting cast of any non-tanking team.

    His best teammates were Pekovic (who missed 28 games) and Martin. Brewer was serviceable, and Rubio was...well, Rubio.

    The stats would support the idea that Love was top five in 2014.

    #4 in PPG, #3 in RPG
    #3 in PER
    #3 in Win Shares
    #4 in WS/48
    #3 in Box +/-#4
    #4 in RAPM

    People seem to forget how good 2014 Love was because he went to Cleveland and had a down year.

    If Love wasn't top five that year, he was #6/#7. LeBron and Durant were the only ones who were clearly ahead of him that year (arguments can be made for Paul, Curry, Harden, Blake).

    To answer the OP: it's probably Bosh.

    The only thing that can be used against him was his clutch play. Dude was horrendous in the clutch. Not having another offensively capable players to relieve some of the defensive attention might have to do with it though.

    Are you serious right now? Did you even watch Miami 2012-2014? Bosh was critical to that team's success. His team defense was SO underrated. He's a damn gem.

    Yeah, I remember him losing a couple of games at the line. Disastrous.

    It's a shame that what he did just a year ago will end up being forgotten.

    Love. They are pretty even offensively. Not very impressed by Love's rebounding numbers. He's the biggest stat padder I've ever seen. Bosh is a much better defender
