Already saw a bunch of bullshyt in here

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

I respect your opinion but I cant agree with anyone who thinks Rodman was overrated. I understand the hate for iverson but Rodman was the goat rebounder/defender/hustle man and could hit th corner three......if you left him wide open for like four seconds

Call a man who took a 29 win team to 60 in the most turnaround wins in history overrated brehs.

call a man who the next season lost their second option to greed, I mean free Agency (Joe Johnson) and their numbers actually IMPROVED overrated brehs.

#FACTSONLY

the same man that put up nice but inflated numbers in a gimmick offense?
the same man whose teams only beat teams when it didn't matter (06-07 Lakers, 10 Spurs) but never when it mattered (10 Lakers, 05 and 07 Spurs)?
the same man whose defensive repertoire solely consisted of taking charges?
the same man who won MVP at the height of the mid-00's backlash against hip hop's influence on the NBA a.k.a. the era? (when the dress code got implemented, when cacs called the NBA thug league, when Ron and SJax were wilding in the Palace, when all those euro scrubs got drafted)
the same man that never came closer to winning the ship than the 03 Mavs when he was the 3rd option behind Dirk and Finley?

man fukk Steve Nash

CP0
Flopden
Fright Coward
Leborn Lames (overrated in the sense that he's presented as the GOAT, not that he's a bum or anything)
Roy Hibbert
I think my man Joakim Noah is sometimes slightly overrated even though he's one of my favorite players

If we're talking strictly about good 2 guards, nothing. If we're talking about elite 2 guards, he cant create his own shot consistently, isn't a particularly great or willing passer or facilitator, and struggles to gain separation from defenders when not running through screens or having Steph set up plays for him. He also doesnt really tend to shoot from anywhere in between the 3 point line and right under the rim

Lol @ you using the same point twice. C'mon bruh. In today's nba klay is elite. You can't name 2 SGs better. Only person u can clearly say is better than him at the postion is harden and he plays NO defense so I can't put him above klay.. It's easy to score when that's ALL you do.

Co sign except for Noah. I don't think Noah is overrated at all, anytime someonee speaks of him all they say is he's a hustle player and that's facts. I don't see anyone saying off the wall shyt about Noah
