Rules: Pick your player and argue next

My pick..............

Rasheed Wallace


The NBA is in itself an entire League of Overrated/Overpaid Players.

Since you did not specify how the player is Overrated, I will pick what I consider to be Overrated and proceed to get slammed by FanNation - the legion of popular theorists.

My choice is definitely a winner.
He is a great shooter.
Most importantly, he is the most clutch shooter the NBA has ever seen ...

Or at least that is what you are told.

Robert Horry is the NBA's most overrated player, in my opinion, by a mile.

He is often referred to as the most CLUTCH player in the NBA. He has 7 Titles to his credit, all of which come on the backs of some of the greatest players of his generation.

Robert Horry and Hall of Fame are two things that should never be spoken together, yet the conversation comes up more than infrequently.

His reputation in contrast with his performance on the court garner him the NBA's Most Overrated Player.

Sheed is most definitely not overrated. Hes got a ton of skill and is a great defensive player. Or do think its coincidence that right after he got traded to the pistons in 2004 they went on a tear and one a championship.

haha one won wow. im up too early.
Sheed did exactly what Gasol did except his team won the whole thing. Hes one of the few players in the league who can guard Duncan one on one. Hes a very underrated defender.

Odom stats: 15.6ppg, 8.9rpg, 4.4apg, 1.0spg, 1.0bpg

Good choice by Bandwagon.

The Bandwagon argument is great, i never look at Robert Horry as being overrated but the argument can make me a believer. Great argument and reasons for saying.

Rasheed Is not overated. Many ppl bring up his ppg. Keep in mind he has Billups,Prince,and Hamilton. And im pretty sure they are the primary targets. If you were to put Wallace in any other team like the Hawks,Sonics,etc.. He would have great #'s. The most ovrerated player is Mike Bibby
