well he did say over the past 10 years... Curry taken that high in the draft & traded for what Isiah gave up to get him & what he turned out to be has to be 1 of the biggest disappointments in recent memory.

No way. He's a top flight big man in my opinion and would love him to be on the Knicks. The guy is a winner.

How can Zach Randolph be overrated when he's not really respected by anyone? The list is not who you hate the most it's about guys who are considered top players but are really *not*.

Panos I'm assuming your list is a joke

Its impossible for Curry to be overrated because he's been a piece of **** his whole career.

I don't think Iverson and Shaq are overrated. They were dominant in their primes.

I took it as, name the starting 5 overrated team ... today.

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Garnett
Pierce
Wade
Marbury
Redd

Pierce did come up big in the play offs, but face it, he did nothing until Ray and KG got there.

Garnett- long, productive career. But I think overrated.

Wade- just gets so many garbage calls, can't shoot and I would hate it if we got him.

Marbury & Redd- safe picks.

While I think of my lineup, I will definitely say that Antawn Jamison is the most overrated player over the past 10 years.

how can he be overrated if he didn't even crack that new 50 best players right now list???

David West is a bum! How can any power fwd make an all-star team when he frequently gets 3 or 4 rebound games? Redd is a tall jumpshooter. He doesn't really drive or play inside so why do his knees keep blowing out? Rashard Lewis make me sick too...He has the gayest looking jumpshot in the league, plus he's built like a power fwd but his only move is a spot up jumper. He's not worth the money he gets.

Shaq isn't overrated, but Iverson?

Iverson is one of the most overrated players to ever play in the NBA. You call taking 19085019285 shots per game, shooting barely 40% as dominant? The only thing Iverson dominated is the ball and always at the expense of his teammates.

People only liked him because he was short, so he has that underdog thing going for him (like Nate). But give me a break, Iverson isn't even in the top100 players of all-time.

edit: and don't cite that Finals appearance. It's the main thing Iverson propagators cling to. Let me tell you-- crazier **** has happened. No one is denying that Iverson was at least sufficiently talented to go to the Finals under the right circumstance. But this does not make him dominant or a top 100 player.

WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.

Can I add Shane Battier??? He's a good player, but then again he isn't...but then again he is....but announcers, analysts act like he is averaging 20/10/5/2/2 with off the wall percentages....he's far from it...He's basically Jared Jefferies with a jumpshot...but he doesn't score much.

But a player like Jeffries is very good to have on your team for the stuff that he brings outside of the stat sheet. If JJ had any type of offensive skills, he would be a great addition to our team. I understand that Shane locks down opposing superstars regularly.

And please do stop clicking the +, no need to share that. But I bet you clicked it again. Why don't you keep to your word?

I don't think you can add Shane- he is a guy opposite so many of the players here. he doesn't fill up a stat sheet, yet manages to help his team win.

now- maybe he is overrated as an intangibles-type player, but I think that's hard to measure...

name the most overrated starting 5...
