Julius Randle overrated? All people do is bash him mostly. Butler has been underrated most of his career so I don't think he can be overrated to be fair. Draymond Green doesn't get praised nonstop either. He gets opportunities and takes advantage of them but I don't see fans adoring Draymond.

Some players are just going to vote because they dislike someone versus it being true or correct.

I expected Draymond to be higher.

Dray will be a HOF'er but know one would know who he was if he didn't play in Curry's dynasty system.. His 11/7/5 isn't anything special when it's contributing to a 20-win Wizards team or something, but it's HOF if it can land next to a generational offensive talent... Without Curry, Dray would be like Harvey Grant.

You'd think the guy wasn't a four time champion...frankly he's just a good teammate to take the Celtics hate because their is no reason why Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingus aren't on this list.

Also Herro and Butler on but not Bam...

Beal taking all the blame for Durant and yet Giannis and Lebron both got votes.

Playoff Pete being behind Joel Embiid...jesus mary and joseph

I wonder how much of this is people just don't like some of these guys - we saw guys like Lillard get into arguments with Halliburton. Butler, Beal, and Draymond aren't exactly the most likable guys.

Maybe people think Klay Thompson is overrated but he's such a nice guy, he'll never make the list.

Gobert #2 is just Donovan Mitchell voting dozens of times :)

I think you’re going by fans ratings on players and thinking the actual players judge their list based on that. I think it has more to do with not liking their game/feeling they are that good. While some comes from a place of dislike. Maybe a mix of both. With fans at least you have some context to why they rank/rate players like they do. With players they don’t speak on other guys as much as we do (hence this msgbosrd).

This isnt about awards, but the rep a player has accumulated.

Holiday by many is seen as a very underrated, extremely good / all star level kind of guard, that any championship team would love to have.
Its possible some players disagree with that notion.

But yes its true its weird for a player that isnt revered or talked much about.

I can see why some players are annoyed at how good he is/seems.

For being so overrated he's been dog walking the Bucks.

I expect that to end in G3 on the road and smash the moneyline but he balled in G2 with Dame back. Dame acts tough but doesn't play defense. And it mayhave been an anomaly but Haliburton was playing defense. I watched him individually force multiple turnovers and shots in the last game.

I think it's mostly because players don't like Haliburton because he only talks shit when he's front running. You might as well change the title of the poll to "Who do you dislike the most?"

What makes Trae overrated? He wouldn’t even have made the all star team if it wasn’t for an injury and, correct me if I’m wrong, received no all nba votes despite putting up 24 ppg, leading the league in assists and played 76 games. Yeah, I know he’s inefficient and is bad on defense, but guards seem to get a pass on defense these days if they’re dynamic on offense and the inefficiency just means we can’t put him on a all NBA level… which we don’t.

Most people feel that way probably because he's a sieve on defense and highly inefficient because he tends to be a chucker.

Oh, I agree. I have to admit I don’t watch a ton of Trae Young, but I’ve seen him put up stinkers and I’ve seen him play clutch basketball. Over-dribbling, chucking(especially when he does it when his team is on a run while he’s cold) and his lack of defense(which can be a criticism for virtually any sub 6’3 star) are completely fair criticisms. My contention is: is that enough to make him ‘overrated’ in the context of a borderline all-star?

Probably not, I think most if not many of the votes are just personal hate for a player that okay against.

He's the face of the Hawks despite terrible numbers. For someone known as a 3pt shooter, 34% is 90s numbers from the 3pt line. In fact, he ranks 144 out of 174 players in the league.

He is not a first option or even a second option on any winning team.

He is not a first option or even a second option on any winning team.

It's because ESPN puts up highlights every once in a while of him hitting a crazy logo shot or a deep three for the win and showing flashes of Chef Curry in those instances, but the reality is he's a very average long distance shooter in terms of how often he makes shots compared to someone like a Curry or even just a 40% three point shooter would would be considered close to elite in today's NBA.

Doncic is similar in that respect, but not as bad. At least he hits it between a 36-38% clip usually, but it helps that he's like 6'8". And he'll hit difficult threes. I think a big reason Trae is inefficient is because he's sub 6'0" and can't easily just shoot over defenders.

haliburton does not have a jump shot as we think he has ...

He shoots from his right shoulder , not above his head..

Easy to guard in my opinion ..
Guard him tight , he will never see 10 points a game , and his dimes would be cut in half...

He finds spacing , and he has a green light from his coach ... that is all.

You should be a NBA coach. You just made Haliburton into a 9 PPG, 5 RPG, 4 APG player. from that marvelous observation. If only you could get onto a team's coaching staff to shut down and limit players like Haliburton.

Players aren't good at evaluating talent and this is one of the reasons why the overwhelming majority of them make absolute shit GMs.

It's why the "player X said soandso" argument is the intellectually laziest argument anyone could make. No, just because Michael Jordan has an opinion about a basketball player in the context of 5 on 5 doesn't mean it's accurate or even necessarily close to being so.

[Uthayakumar] Tyrese Haliburton is 5-for-6 (83.3%) when taking a shot to tie or take the lead in the final 90 seconds of the 4th or OT this playoffs. That’s tied for the most such shots in a single postseason since 1997.
We’re not talking one shot here.

He had an off regular season, but Haliburton shouldn't have been voted most overrated and I'm not even a big fan of that dude.

Easily should have gone to Trae Young or Morant. These are actually big name players who are nowhere near as good as some fans hype them up to be. Morant wasn't even the best player on his team this year.

Hahaha... little did they know they literally lit a fire under his ass. People treated Dirk similarly. Disregarded everything out dueling KG and Duncan prime for prime in the playoffs and then still boiling his career down to 2007 upset.

And then what happened?

Yeah I don't recall many big ones. He hit one on orlando in '09, a series he choked in. Kobe's overall clutch stats (efficiency, ast-to ratio) are better than Lebron's in the Playoffs, and that's before all the no shows from Lebron over the last 3 years.

Choking is averaging 38.5 PPG / 8.3 RPG / 8.0 APG / 1.2 SPG / 1.2 BPG on nearly 49% shooting from the field?

I'm going to disagree with you on that. The rest of the team didn't show up to play and Orlando dominated on those mismatches and stretching the floor. If there's ever been a choke series for him it was against Dallas in 2011.

I guess that's not enough though. LeBron has to score over 40 every game for it not to be a choke to you.

Haliburton represents everything I like in a player

Doesn't flop or foul bait, has high basketball IQ, plays an unselfish team oriented brand of basketball and is an absolute killer in big games,

It's actually quite scary how clutch he is

Most overrated is Rudy Gobert and it's not close, he gets paid superstar money but gives you role player production and at times is a complete liability on both ends of the floor come playoff time

I have been saying this for 5 years and he proves me right every year in the playoffs

Never said all cops were white. That’s you throwing shyt against the wall again. Point is you have a perception of Haliburton and think it’s what the general consensus seems to think. You’re wrong. I don’t know why you just don’t speak for yourself instead of others? The fact you mentioned Reggie Miller sharing similar characteristics only he’s never been labeled overrated just poops on your stupid theory to why Haliburton was rated most overrated.

But yeah man he’s not gangsta enough. That’s what’s popular in the league. Tattoos, weed, baggy clothing, “nahmean”. Smh

Show me the meltdown. Another poster here falsely claimed I called the NFL racist for not drafting Sanders. I sent him this link asking him to show me where. He has yet to address it. Pride won’t allow it. So now it’s your turn. Show me where the weird meltdown was. Or you can do what he did and STFU? You can’t talk nonsense then when called out on it? You clear the comms like the final circle of Warzone.
