So you're saying Kevin Garnett was cancer in a basketball uniform?

I guess I have to agree.

Kevin Garnett evolved from being " The Kid " to being " The Big Ticket".

He was the ultimate fake tough guy and a uber Jack ass.

But, he was NEVER overrated.

KG. big mouth? yes. bonafide asshole? yes. overrated? nope...

Sometimes i wonder what it would have been like if the Lakers could have finished the trade for KG when Kobe was in his prime....A Lot of rings with those two competitors is what i would deduce.

Yeah, I hate y'all.

But, I think he would have excelled with Kobe.

Thank God that didn't happen...lol

Can you imagine the shit talking?

They would have had teammates, and opponents , openly sobbing on the court.

I voted Pippen. Dude had a couple of chances as the team leader in Chicago and Portland with rosters solid enough to at least reach the finals and failed.

Plus, he was part of that epic Game 7 meltdown with the Jailblazers.

^^^This...

I will say the people that overrated Pippen the most were the Miami fairweather fans that played the "Jordan had Pippen" card as an excuse for "The Decision" backlash.

Both were great, but the answer is clearly Pippen for one obvious reason. Rings count for way too much in determining a player's legacy. They are important for sure, but championships are a team accomplishment.

Neither Pip nor MJ would have so many without help from each other, so that makes both somewhat overrated. I am not saying Jordan isn't the greatest, but people act like he walks on water. The man was human like everyone else. He just happened to completely dominate his era.

I can't believe this is actually a discussion. We wouldn't know who Scottie Pippen is if he hadn't landed with Jordan.

German Potato Salad is way better than potato salad with mayo--- potato salad with MAYO is the MOSt overated---

but Pippen? ---- KG was the best player and anchor of the Boston defense when he won. Id take KG for his whole career over Pippen and not think twice.

Pippen BENCHED HIMSELF in a playoff game. Pippen is a very good player- but he is so freaking overated its a joke.

KG carried the least talented roster in the NBA to the playoffs 7 consecutive years. The 8th he actually had a team around him and would have beaten the Lakers that year if Cassells back does not go out.

Pippen rode the coattails of the goat, and crumbled every time it came to leading the team himself.
