I constructed a list of players that should get a lot more credit than they do. Maybe not super stars, but pretty damn good players. Not in order.

1. Al Jefferson
2. Goran Dragic
3. Mike Conley
4. Paul Milsap
5. Nikola Pekovic
6. Chandler Parsons
7. Nikola Vucevic
8. David West

Damn. and I thought Dragic was underrated. Had no idea he was putting up those numbers.

Good call on Thomas. I knew he was around 19-6 but forgot to add him to the list. Justifies how underrated he is. Everyone forgets about him, lol.

Al Jefferson has to be pissed.

He put up what, 36 tonight, and NOBODY cares. He probably left the court like, "man, this is some BULLSHIT!!!!!"

That Teague fellow on Atlanta.

Teague was the shit at Wake Forest.

Love Dragic. I don't watch the Suns anymore, but that dude would come in for Nash back in the day and tear shit up.

Good list.

Id like to add Demarcus Cousins, Kyrie Irving and Demar DeRozan. I never hear about Raptors players but theyve been playing well.

Kevin Love. The fact some don't think he's best PF in the game.

Makes him underrated.

Arron Afflalo and Al Jefferson are the 2 most underrated players in the game.

Ty Lawson anyone? Denver sucks with him, but without they're a 20 win team, maybe.

Al Jefferson has had his chances to be a star many times.


He is probably the worst defender at his position of any "good" players, so that really holds him back.


I don't think his offensive game is enough to offset the defensive liability which mucks up the rotations for the entire team.

Yea I agree I've mentioned him before a few times. His one of my favorite NBA players, he just need's to go to a contender IMO.

Agree with Dragic, Jefferson, Thomas... I'd add add Anthony Davis and Drummond.

Those 5 guys are all in the top-20 in PER this season.

and he can play D which is every one's gripe about him.

Putting him on the most underrated list is an exaggeration though.
