General NBA Discussion Thread.

Disagree the he's most overrated or that he's overrated at all?

Imo, he's very overrated.
 
If injuries are factored in, Rose is also quite overrated.
 
Lmao Spurs, Spurs shadow, clippers, Warriors, mavs


No mention of grizz (ever) or houston.. Espn is useless
 
I do not believe rondo is overrated in anyway

He's certainly better/worse given what's around him but if surrounded by the right pieces he is virtually unstoppable.

I agree, i like Rondo
 
Rondo's incredibly skilled but he can't shoot, he disappears for long stretches at a time, and he's got a history of putting his own individual stats over the good of the team. It's hard to overlook the fact that the Celtics got significantly better a couple of years ago after Rondo got hurt. Talent-wise, he ought to be one of the five best players in the league, but instead he's nowhere close. This is Year 9 for him so, like Josh Smith, we're getting close to He Is What He Is territory. Maybe this will be the year.
 
He may not be able to shoot but just two years ago in the conference finals against the Heat at their peak he was arguably the best player on either team throughout the series and had one of the better playoff games in game 2 that I can remember ever seeing. I think he went for something like 40, 10, and 5, was an absolute terror on defense and scored every point in OT for the C's.

He seems to be a bit eccentric, at best, or a headcase, at worst, but he's one hell of a player.

Yessir. The win in Portland the other night was nice, especially the way the final minute unfolded, but tonight would be the most impressive win so far, even if the Clips have looked a little off to start the year.

That's sort of my point. He was arguably the best player in a series that included five sure-fire Hall of Famers. Yet he's been in the league for nine years. Where's it been the rest of the time? There's no question about his talent -- I think he might be the second-most purely talented player in the whole league, behind only Westbrook -- but I don't much care who would win a skills competition.
 
Patatas are underrated. You can't convince me otherwise.
 
Speaking of underrated..

MURDER T WROTE Tony Wroten is criminally underrated
 
Speaking of Rondo, 13 pts, 10 boards, 15 assists tonight on 5/8 and 3/4 from 3.
