2. Who's the most underrated power forward in the NBA?

Justin DeFeo, Nets Are Scorching: LaMarcus Aldridge quietly posted one of the best seasons for a power forward in 2010-12 (sic). His player efficiency rating was seventh highest among power forwards, and with the decline of Brandon Roy, Aldridge carried the Trail Blazers to the playoffs and gave the NBA champion Dallas Mavericks one of their toughest series.

4. Who's the most promising power forward in the NBA?

Henry Abbott, TrueHoop: Blake Griffin and LaMarcus Aldridge are leading a pack that includes all kinds of potential in the likes of Derrick Favors, Thaddeus Young, Michael Beasley, Derrick Williams and Bismack Biyombo.

Definetly the worst off-season ever.... Slllllooooooww going on the NBA front

As far as LMA being underrated, that's what happens when you get no national love, and a white player who rebounds on a crappy team gets all the love, pun intended

That, and LMA has been kinda a silent killer, can't wait to see him transform his post game and unleash his inner LAmonster.

How can he include Derrick Williams and Bismack Biyombo as promising NBA players already?

Don't really care much for the LA omission. The Love ranking is bugging me though.

The Blake Griffen/Love love bugs me. Neither Griffen/Love really helped there team win games and the player both had to guard on the other team would put up above average numbers (Will have to look at my history to try and find the link spouting the other PF PER's vs them). His list looks a lot like pure Media Hype.
