Underrated Player

Everyone that sheltwon says is overrated.

you misspelled “the” the same exact way on the last post. lol…..”teh”

anyways- i think the mostunderrated player last season was JJ Hickson and Ryan Anderson too.

pattymills are you serious man.

Look when this season coming up is over and you are still on here you will be saying how Sheltwon was right and we should have listened to him.

I figure you joking though.

Andray Blatche- Everyone calls him a headcase cause he had one run in with the coach but he can shoot with range handle better than most bigmen pass and very long

PG: Aaron Brooks- Fast as hell, a good shooter, electric scorer, and a good enough playmaker and leader.

SG: John Salmons- He can do a little of everything, but he has developed into a good 2nd/3rd option. Also an elite level defender even though no one notices it.

SF: Danny Granger- The guy is seriously an elite level NBA scorer. Shooting, slashing, and post up and face-up. But no one usually will mention him, probably because the Pacers aren’t good.

PF: Kevin Love- Elite level frontcourt passer and rebounder. Also a good shooter and a decent scorer facing up and posting.

C: Andrew Bynum- He’s limited because of injuries and conditioning, as well as a sometimes shaky basketball IQ. No denying his defensive presence and rebounding ability, as well as his offensive skill level. Huge reason why LA won their titles the past 2 years, but people don’t generally acknowledge it.

Jason Hart – This guy is solid in all facets of the game and can be a great backup for any team. He shouldn’t be a 10 day contract guy.

Chris Kaman – Other than the occasional concentration lapses and lack of elite explosiveness, you can make a serious case that he is a top 5 center in the league. Great footwork and moves in the post, can finish with either hand, great size, runs the floor extremely well, good jumpshot, rebounds well, blocks shots at a decent rate.

Goran Dragic – He should be starting for a team right now. He switches speeds well, is a dynamic playmaker, and is more than capable of playing with floaters, runners, and other moves that only the best PG’s in the NBA can do. The guy is just waiting to explode.

derek fisher-proved that int he playoffs
j.j redick-played much better defense then anyone ever thought he would

JJ Reddick was the 11th pick in the draft, how is he underrated? If anything, he’s been a flop. He hasn’t done anything in the NBA that would warrant the contract he just got. Never more than a role player, he did show some heart in the playoffs though…I don’t know which was a worst draft pick, Reddick at 11 or Mike Conley at 4?

PG Jrue Holiday

SG Thabo Sefolosha

SF Nicolas Batum

PF Troy Murphy

C Chris Kaman

past 11th picks

Fran Vazquez, Spain
Andris Biedrins, Latvia
Mickael Pietrus, France
Jared Jeffries, Indiana
Kedrick Brown, Okaloosa-Walton CC (Fla.)
Jerome Moiso, UCLA
Trajan Langdon, Duke
Bonzi Wells, Ball State
Tariq Abdul-Wahad, San Jose State
Todd Fuller, North Carolina State
Gary Trent, Ohio University
Carlos Rogers, Tennessee State

so what exactly do you expect out of a 11th pick?

i really think people say someone is bad for where they are picked without really thinking about it or remembering past players who were picked at they same spot

14th picks

Current Players by Selection: No. 14

Player Year Rd. No. College/Team Drafted By

what the f*ck!?!? did i really jus read jason harts name as underrated?

Yes you did, Jason Hart shouldn’t be relying on ten day contracts to stay in the league, he could be a solid back up for a decent team or 3rd point guard for a playoff team.

Pg- Ty Lawson can’t wait till he gets to start, dude is CRAZY efficient, an improving shooter, and a great sparkplug at the moment with bigger potential. Side Note…Everybody is hyping Dragic right now, there is no way he is underrated.

Sg- Shannon Brown I hate the Lakers but that guy can go. I really wish somebody like the Knicks, or Raptors, or Hornets that can give him some burn would go get him from the Lakeshow, he is ready. Athletic as hell but better rounded than people think.

Sf- Marvin Williams I know he was the second pick, but because of the whole Chris Paul and Deron Williams thing, people act like he is a bum. dude is like 23, can shoot, plays good D, can hit the boards, can play PF or SF. He is a really well rounded player that could use a more structured offense with less ME Guys.

Pf- Lou Ammundson That guy just makes stuff happen

C- Joel Anthony glad he got paid. I wonder where all this money keeps comming from though…One of the few dudes in the league that actually plays every night like he is fighting, knows that he isn’t the most talented and very rarely does things to damage the team. Poormans Kendrick Perkins, minus the attitude (for better or for worse). I like him starting with the superfriends, he wont need to shoot just rebound, D up, and guard Dwight 4 times a year and in the playoffs.

I’ll love to see what type of Stats Ryan Anderson might put up if he was given starters minutes..
Matt Barnes is a reliable role player his defense & shooting is very underrated
Character,Ebanks have been playing well in the summer league..But they will not get much playing time with the Lakers..So Jerome Jordan of the Knicks will be an underrated rookie to watch…Another rookie to watch is Ismail Smith who ever he signs with
