Iverson Is the Most Overrated Player in NBA History

[gasolina]

I don't really agree that his poor shot-selection was a result of the ERA he played in. Save this past year, guys like Kobe and Dirk averaged about the same efficiency they did then. So while I do agree that teams pre 2004-05 benefited from handchecking, Iverson's struggles had more to do with his teams makeup than the defense being played.

Defense played a good part. Just look at the PPG and FG% of the league pre and post hand check prohibition.

Overrated by youth during his prime, underrated by basketball purists.

Overrated by Lil Bow Wow, underrated by Garth Brooks.
