Who was the most overrated player in NBA History

[HuskerCradle2Grave]

Jordan might have had a bit to do with Thomas...lol

I know Christian was big shit back then and this is revisionist history...

But, even if they went the College route....

Is that Skinny Shaq?

Second fiddle on offense, he was MJ's equal or better in every other way though.

I'll give you equal to. Better than? Nope.

 

[HuskerCradle2Grave]

In those first 3 championship series Pippen was the better overall player other than scoring.
After MJ came back from riding the bus through the minors the team was more balanced with Harper, Kukoc and Longley, plus Rodman rebounding and playing defense.

In 91' the only stats Scottie was better than MJ was Rebounds and FT%.
In '92, Rebounds Assists and Blocks.
'93, your statement holds.

Ok just to stir some shit and make some heads explode I'm going to throw this out there: Michael Jordan

Not because he wasn't awesome or even the GOAT. But because he has been turned into some kind of God that can't ever be questioned or surpassed, who always succeeded and never failed, who only played titanic opponents and single handedly beat them all.

Doesn't that sound kind of overrated? Let the flame war begin!

The GOAT as overrated? Yeah that's a stretch.

Bill Walton was never a superstar. Great player and too bad for the injuries.

He was in College and his Chip year in Portland.

People grade him on the curve because of injuries.

Len Bias.... he was not injured per se

* Must not laugh *

Defensively it was a push, both were top 5 in The NBA.
