Brian Grant and Sabonis. Neither came to play in Game 7 and no one will call them on it.
 
Brandon Roy

He played a grand total of 321 games for us (30th on the allbtime list). Averaged 19/4/4, yet a lot of people want to retire his number?

He played 23 more games in a Blazer uniform than Meyers Fucking Leonard.

Where are the chants for Kiki Vandeweghe? He played thecsame number if seasons, and scored more points.

Roy was a good player, but a lot of people in here really overrate him.

If it hadn't been for his knees his number would be retired here. Its not like we traded for him, then he just played here for a few seasons then left via free agency/trade.

Amazing player, big heart!

The fact that some want his number retired doesn't make him overrated. He was a 3 time all star and 2 times all-nba in his first 4 years in the league. And he would be one again in his 5th if not for those damn injuries.

The guy had surgery and returned in 10 days to help us in the playoffs and he paid the price for it. Don't mention him in this topic though. It's crazy!
 
Toss up between Rasheed and Brandon.
 
Definitely LaMarcus Aldridge, no contest. Do Spurs fans even like him now?
 
Stoudamire IMO. He was overrated by the coaches--handed starting roles and major ballhandling duties over guys (Greg Anthony, Pippen) who were clearly better fits in the team concept. Also massively overrated by the GM's with those ridiculous contracts.

I will say that had he entered the league in the current point guard climate I would probably have liked him a lot more. Waterbug three point shooting point guards work a lot better in modern systems. And the whole pot thing wouldn't be such a major issue now.

That's probably the most charitable thing I've ever said about the guy.
 
I don't think Damon was ever highly regarded by most fans.
 
Aldridge...
The midrange shot is falling tonight? Great! we have a chance in this.
The midrange shot isn't falling tonight? sorry guys, i'm not going inside.

You realize that this fierce response actually supports the suggestion that he might be overrated, right?

No I don't. I didn't label him as the best Blazer of all time or whatever. Overrated why? I just mentioned some facts. He was a top20 player in the league in the first 4 seasons he played. Wasn't he?

The fact that you think him as overrated should put him on the underrated thread. Same career PER with Dame btw (and I don't say they have same value) with one season semi-done due to his knees.

Roy was arguably the second or third best shooting guard in the league at that time. He regularly cook the shit out of Kobe Bryant.
 
I'm gonna get Flack for this but I don't care. This forum overrates the SHIT out of Joel Przybilla.

I'd like to hear how you think the forum overrates him.

I will state that he was a pretty elite rebounder and shot blocker. Over his Portland career, he had a career TRB% of 19.7% and BLK% of 5.4%. This decade, there have been precisely 8 individual seasons put up that beat that, and he did that over 6+ seasons.

I don't think anybody "rates" Przybilla as good at anything else other than those two aspects of the game, but it's pretty tough to overrate him in those aspects.
