Curry easily

People try to play up Klay Thompson and Draymond Green when they are borderline star talents that get maximized from playing in Golden State's system (Which is Curry's system)

In 2016 Curry put up one of the worst finals performances by a MVP of all time

22.6 PPG, 4.9 TRB, 3.7 APG

17 Points in Game 7, the biggest game of his career.

This is what he looked like trying to guard Kyrie

Therefore we can conclude that Curry is a choking loser

Yeah but I was pissed off the night he hit the game winner against the cavs

I'd probably throw C.J. McCollum's name out there, though he started getting more recognition toward the end of this season.

If you aren't on a team that makes the playoffs and don't play in a big market, you may go unnoticed for awhile.

He's a great defender, he plays much bigger than he actually is and is fearless. I like his play-style a lot. Reminds me of Jimmy Butler honestly.

Good pick. I'm curious how he would do if he wasn't playing with his doppelganger in Lillard.

Millsap finally getting the respect he's deserved for years.

Crowder is one who hasn't been mentioned, but I think Allen Crabbe is the answer to this one.

The Blazers actually have a few that I don't think get the recognition they deserve... McCollum as having legitimate star potential, Crabbe as a real up-and-comer and even a guy like Aminu... could be a really nice role player on a good team.

They've assembled a nice looking roster.

kemba walker was actually pretty good this year even if he was a chucker the year before. Definite best player on the Hornets pretty good and borderline all star type in that same tier with isaiah and reggie jackson. Clutch af game 6 vs Miami even if they lost.

It used to be Mike Conley but fk his contract. Maybe Paul Millsap or Gordon Hayward atm.

Rubio is the big one for me. Terrible shooter, but still manages to rate a solid net positive offensively most years. His passing and playmaking are truly elite. His defense is too. Someone like Houston is going to steal him in a trade I bet.

Favors was a good one too. Marvin Williams, Tobias Harris,Amir Johnson,

Thaddeus young. Cant say conley as he is overpaid and quit on his tema two yeara in the playoffs. Ian mahinmi as a backup

I like Vucevic too. I'll chime in with Tristan Thompson. If it wasn't for Lebron's spotlight, no one would notice him. Average rim protector but he's an elite pick-and-roll defender, elite offensive rebounder, very good man defender and very good switcher on the perimeter.

Vucevic is closer to overrated.

For stars though, its Cousins and Harden

Draymond green


He's more than just a utility/hustle man. One of the most versatile players since Barkley.

First player that came to mind for me.

Please explain. I don't think he quit. Being hurt is different than quitting. Although I have to admit, I can't put guys that routinely miss playoff games in the underrated section. It also seems as if Avery Bradley is hurt often as well. He was hurt this year, does anyone know if he missed time in last year's playoffs?

I thought about chiming in with TT, but I didn't want to seem like a homer so I waited until someone else mentioned him. :oldlol:

TT is a really great compliment to a team filled with scoring and playmaking. You don't need to run any plays for him, but the defense still has to be very weary of him at all times, because if you don't account for Tristan, he will kill you on the offensive glass.

Defensively, he can guard forwards and centers comfortably and is maybe the best big in the league at staying with guards on a switched screen.

Even his free throw shooting... teams try to occasionally hack him like they do Drummond and Jordan, but it will usually only take him a couple tries to get a rhythm and then he's fine at the line.

He may not ever make an All-Star team (though he still is really young), but he's absolutely vital to a championship contending roster ... and I'd argue that is more important than individual accolades.

Not many underrated players imo, due to the overexposure of players.
There probably is some for casual fans.

Among casuals, from my experience, it's pretty easily Draymond. Most of them think Klay is better.
