I honestly agree with it for the most part, Battier isn't that good (a good defender and that's it) , Marion is only overrated because people say he's underrated too often, Yao is injured too often and isn't verry good on defense, Horry even has a low shooting percentage in the playoffs and by what Wade has done without a healthy Shaq does validate this overrated claim but if he can stay healthy this season he'll prove he deserves to be rated as one of the leagues best. (I agree with that statement that no KG, LeBron or Kobe lead team even paired with 11 of the league's worst players — starting a season 11-54)

Wade overrated? lmao Marion-of course he cant creat his own shot but good to have in ateam. Yao Ming: hes under avg for his size he should get more than what he got. Rasheed Wallace: he might be good defender but I think hes done.hes not good anymore he barely score 10 points agame Mike Bibby: he just lost his shot or what? this man cant shot anymore and the most overrated player ever Eddy Curry: I have no idea why most of NY fans or any fans think hes good? i can agree with him being good low post player But 1:hes slow 1:5 RPG or 6 for aC?please 2: leads the league in turnovers per game or in top 10 3: 58% 4 shity defender 5 0.2 steals and 0.3 blocks maybe thats why NY suck

Wade was always good...and he proved it with USA being the best player so far when hes healthy hes one of the best players as good as LBJ and Kobe get over it.

Wade has been just plain sick for the USA. LeBron may be the best player overall (imo) with Kobe a close second but Wade is closing the gap between him and Kobe.

Battier is overrated I agree, trading him for Rudy Gay was the STUPIDEST thing the Rockets ever did. I agree with Marion, like Grass good player but not 94 in sim leagues imo. Horry is past his prime, at one time he was pretty good. Not a super star mind you but at this point he is overrated, but in all fairness to him same with a lot of older players (Shaq, Finley, Cassell, etc.)
I STRONGLY disagree about Yao, when healthy is the most dominating center in the game. I've tried to explain this to people, he's 7'6 and only gets 9 or 10 rebounds? Well when someone shoots a 3 the ball bounces a lot and it's more about quickness at that point than height and position. Yao isn't overrated because no one thinks of him as a top 5 player, he could be if he could play a whole year but I think he's somewhere between 10-15.
Wade being overrated is absurd, does no one get that the Heat threw the end of the season to get a better pick? Wade, T-mac, Pierce, Kobe (and maybe Joe Johnson and Manu) are all about the same in that "2nd tier" of wingmen behind Lebron. Personally I would take Wade before any of them, I don't see that he's overrated. This is my list with players that are not past there primes. Obviously guys like Shaq and Kidd aren't the same anymore.
My List: 1. Andrew Bynum 2. Frabrico Oberto 3. Lamar Odom 4. Shawn Marion 5. Vince Carter
Battier is overrated but who thinks he's really THAT good? Also I put Mike Bibby on the "past his prime list" though I don't think he was ever that good.

Bynum! I forgot about em hes overrated I would the SG's in the NBA like this
Kobe and Wade 10/10 Manu,JJ,Pierce,Tmac 9.9/10
these ppl are almost the same on the court Kobe can dunk omfg over the best, manu can step back and lunch 3 easily and LBJ was shocked when Manu hit 8 3s against the Cavaliers just every one got his own style. but Kobe and Wade are just alittle better all round and athletic than all all Manu,Pierce,JJ,Kobe,Wade,Tmac can take over anytime any day and beat teams alone we seen JJ against Boston Kobe every game PP alot,Tmac just 123 Manu when TD was hurt and TP he beat Dallas and Houston all alone named the player of the month avging 26,6,6 62% from 3pt without TD and 3 games with TP.
but Yao is not that overrated but ppl with his size should get more IMO hes still top C in the league
