Klay Thompson, most overrated player in the league right now 
AJtheOne
Nets/Giants/Yankees
he's injury prone and he's on a max contract too
I know Phoenix is like
after they dodged that bullet
Present
Klay Thompson - he's not the best SG in the league and doesn't have a case when all he really does is shoot 3s and play defense. Granted he's extremely good at those 2 things but people arguing him over Harden is ridiculous when he has trouble creating his own shot
Paul George - not a superstar, just an above average SF that gets hyped up because he plays great defense and is the leading scorer on one of the worst offensive teams in the league
Andre Drummond - someone went as far as saying he would be a top 10-12 player at the end of the season. How can he be anywhere near that when he cant score from anywhere outside of 5 feet from the basket and only excels in 1 area, which is rebounding?
Past
Joe Dumars - didnt play defense and was simply not HOF material. Very good scorer but not amazing, he just happened to be on a team that won 2 titles
Dennis Rodman - just because he was an extraordinary rebounder and an excellent defender doesnt mean that he's a Hall of Famer. Role players are not HOF material, regardless of how good they are at what they do
Jason Kidd - even if you ignore the fact that he turned the ball over a lot (which I'm willing to look past because of his high number of assists and playmaking ability), he was a 40% shooter for his career and did not particularly amaze at the offensive end of the floor
Allen Iverson - possibly the most overrated player in NBA history, was a shotjacker who got recognition because he crossed over MJ. A straight up ballhog, the last player you would want on your team, and gambled on steals too much. He is the definition of a highlight reel player, the type of guy you'll see make an amazing play from time to time but overall lacks substance as a player. I would never want him to be the SG for my team, much less the PG

You're wrong about Rodman and Kidd.

You gotta be trolling right now!!!
He says all he does is shoot 3s and play defense...so basically or he does is score points and play defense
What does harden do....Score? How does he do that? run to the lane and scream ahhhhh ref and heads to the line!
Wasn't harden shooting like below 40% for like the majority of the season We not even gonna debate hardens defense cuz we both know thats non existence.
Harden is just a big flopper mane. Look at this kid mane

Well here's how I feel about Rodman: he's the best non-big rebounder the game has ever seen and one of the most versatile defenders as well. But he was such a liability on the offensive end of the floor that he would solely get in position to grab offensive rebounds and score on putbacks. IMO I don't think that's HOF material except under the condition that we induct 1 player at every position who was the best at what they did. If we're going to induct a player into the HOF because they were the best SF rebounder of all time and the one of the most versatile SF defenders, then he deserves to be in. If not, then I don't see a reason for him to get in when other players with more deserving resumes haven't been inducted
Kidd is a HOF'er regardless, but he's overrated because he was a rather poor shooter his entire career. When you average only 40% for your career, you're inefficient. Allen Iverson is generally regarded as an inefficient shotjacker (which he is), and he shot 42% for his career
