    Default The Most OVERRATED player in the NBA

    I saw this poll on the front page of Insidehoops, and decided to create a thread on it. Anyway, who do you guys think is the most overrated?

    I think it's Derrick Rose.

    So many people have him in the top 10 just after one season. . The dude had a stacked team, and even though Booz and Noah were injured at times, he still had a sick defensive team and everyone contributed. It's not like he HAD to go out every night and score 30 for them to win.

    Funny...I thought it was more of the other way around. If Rose didnt play the way he did during the season, the Bulls were nothing.

    So your telling me that it was only Rose that basically got the Bulls to the next level? The coach, or the bench didn't have anything to do with it?

    Definitely Lebron. He's the definition of empty stats.

    pretty much...sure the coach and bench had factors, but Rose was the reason they were on the 'next level'

    I'd say it's the older stars. Duncan, Kobe, Garnett, etc. These guys can still produce but not the way they used to. Most of their homers have a hard time accepting that and continue to ranke them amongst the next generation superstars like Bron, Durant and Howard, while they can no longer compete with them.

    Don't tell me you're a LeBron fan.

    i can see this, esp duncan. sorry, he just didn't deserve an all-star bid last season and his team's record wasn't an excuse. go ahead and throw carter in there since people think he can just return to 08-09 form the drop of a hat. he's not a 20 pt scorer anymore and his defense hurts you more than what he can give on offense. not to mention his poor FT shooting and clutch play.
