Dennis Johnson also deserves a mention. 3x champion, 1x Finals MVP, 5x All-Star, 2x All-NBA, 9x All-Defense. Larry Bird called him the greatest teammate he ever had and Magic Johnson named him as the toughest defender he ever faced.
@ He most definitely is underrated amongst people that haven't been long time hardcore fans of the league. Ask young modern fans who the all-time greatest defensive point guard is and guys like Gary Payton, Chris Paul and Jrue Holiday will be the most likely answers even though DJ was arguably the best of the bunch. I don't see his name being mentioned nearly enough whenever the topic of greatest perimeter defenders is being discussed. That's probably due to the fact that his peak years were right before the DPOY award came into existence.
Dude revolutionized the importance of a 4-5 spacing from the Corner 3. And along with the Heat they also started revolutionizing the small ball lineup as well which led to 2 Rings and a blueprint that the Warriors would use to dominate the rest of the decade.
Kevin Love too. He was one of the greatest rebounders in the 2010s and does not get enough credit. He was 26 and 13 at his peak and an MVP candidate. Both deserve HOF placements for sure.
Nah, he was never good enough to lead the Wolves to the playoffs. KG led the Wolves to the playoffs with the same garbage players, Love wasn't skilled enough
@@MangoTroubles-007 Kevin Garnett is also widely considered as a top 25 nba player in nba history, and one of the greatest defensive PFs ever. Hell, he solidified himself as one of the best without even getting a ring for carrying a terrible squad. The fact that we're comparing them at all goes to show how good Love is, that you see him as a threat to KG as a Timberwolf. And Love has had better rebounding and scoring seasons than KG. The fact they are even compared at all should tell you Love is easily a HOF player and underrated af.
Andre miller carried the blazers for a few years. He is amazingly under rated. Aldridge was largely not mentioned because he spent most his peak in Portland and he's not a flashy player. He isn't mentioned among blazers fans much either by the way he royally screwed us over when he left. He ruined his own legacy with that.
So many great players back then. Bob McAdoo is never talked about enough. Might be the best mid range shooter to ever live. Alex English was just silky smooth. Dantley was unstoppable at times. And Moses was just a freaking brute.
Without Shawn Marion, the Phoenix Suns will be atleast slightly below Mediocre Team, and won't make it to 8th Seed. He made the Phoenix Suns not a Bottom 3 in Defense but a Top 13-17 Defense. His impact is underappreciated because of Stoudemire and Nash.
He's definitely one of, if not the most underrated defender of all time. He was elite on that end of the floor but that seems to get forgotten by many because he played in such an offensive minded system during his peak years.
Only people who understands basketball will say Draymond Green is one of the underrated players in the NBA, his efforts wasn't even on the stat sheet like for example he passes the ball to another teammates to get a good angle to pass into open guy, will he get the assist? No. And another is his offball plays that directing his teammates to get a better look Yeah yeah he punch Poole and his other shenanigans but you need to give the guy a credit for his efforts
@Grizzy6122 I guess I took "underrated" as meaning "they're better than you think" whereas some of these were more "players you forgot about" A poster below said Dennis Johnson and he's a great example of "dude is way better than you think" Fat Lever another example
For me, Isiah Thomas is one of the most underrated players, the man was ahead of his time, scoring and leading his team to back to back titles on the most aggressive era, and he was a short player
@@Cory2340no, he's not underrated but he's definitely underrated amongst his peers because of his reputation of not only being the head honcho of the bad boys but also he's that exactly well liked off the court either.
MJ is the GOAT and won his first championship without any all stars that year. Yes, Pippen was not an all star that year. MJ also guarded Magic over 70% of the possession during that Championship series.
He's a significant player historically but the problem is the NBA before the shot clock was basically a different sport compared to even like the 1960s
he’s important to the game but I wouldn’t say he’s top 20 or anything like that, there were only 11 teams back then so his rings aren’t really the same
The only people who ever disrespected Scottie were the Chicago Bulls front office. Specifically Jerry Kraus. Pippen loves to make everyone think he always got slighted just cause he never got paid😂
Scottie Pippen ruined his own reputation by turning on Jordan. If he didn't do that, he would have gotten a wave of appreciation from the last dance, more so than Jordan. It's sad really.
"Jordan never won a playoff series without Pippen" argument is dumb. Some of those series Jordan "couldn't" win without Pippen, Scottie was like 10 mpg and 5 ppg player.
Saying Pippen is one of the most underrated is crazy... He's always referred to as the greatest no 2 of all time. And him and Jordan being the greatest duo of all time. He was selected as one of the 50 greatest players of all time in just his 9th season. And he was selected as one of the 75 greatest players of all time after his career. (Both while being a no 2 on a team) He was in the Dream Team in his 5th season. He's in the hall of fame. Underrated.... 🤦
I’m just gonna say, Draymond Green is super underrated. One of the best defenders of the time and a dpoy. I feel his skill is often forgotten cause of his attitude on the court
I know Moses Malone doesn’t get talk about a lot, but he was heck of a player. He was also a consistent scorer as well as rebounding, but he isn’t known for his shot-blocking ability. He was definitely one of the best big men in NBA history. Standing at 6'10"/260 lbs, he was a dominant force in the paint. He was rebounding on both ends of the court, make free throws, and he is an all-around player overall. He played 21 seasons with different teams over his career.
Chauncey Billups. Mr. Big shot is also one of the most clutch players and one of the best team leaders he brings positive impact on the teams the he went to
Pete Maravich is a guy that would have been great for this list since he held the NCAA points record for over 5 decades without a 3 point line. Hall of famer who shot like a modern guard in a era with no 3s. The nickname Pistol Pete in it of itself derseves him a spot on this list.
Scottie Pippen aint underrated, if anything, hes slightly overrated because without MJ as a teammate, his offensive game might have never been polished and he'd only be known as a defensive specialist off the bench.
YUP!!! '94 when pip advanced to the 2nd round without mj: -bj & horace were all-stars -most of the team had 3 rings already & plenty of playoff experience '88 when mike "Finally" advanced to the 2nd round with pip's arrival: -Mike was the lone all-star -Oakley was 2nd leading scorer while pip averaged 7.9
@bullsfandex3993 94 was his best chance and he choked bad. I laugh when people claim Mike needed Pippen. Pippen was the perfect complementary player for Mike because he let Mike mold him and push him hard in practice. If Pippen hadn't gotten drafted by the Bulls, I still believe Mike would have won some Championships because he was too driven and passionate not to.
John Havlicek is barely mention in today’s NBA debate. He retired as a Celtics in the rafters. He was a 8-time NBA champion while being Bill Russell’s teammate. He was the most accomplished player in NBA history
Joe Johnson was a big guard at 6’7”/240 pound at the shooting guard/small forward position. He actually was able to play very well for his exceptional skills in isolation plays, which earned him the nickname "Iso Joe." He was a reliable scorer and a key player for many teams throughout his career
Unreal. It seems the guys that didn’t make others money off the court aren’t the ones in the spot light. Some serious ballers on this list … Chris Bosh being one of my favs in this group.
Pippen wasn't underrated. He was an elite defender who averaged 16ppg on 13 FGA which isn't very efficient. He was a very good passer. He's great overall but not THAT great. He's amongst the top 75 which I could argue makes him a bit overrated. I actually really like him and Payton, I like defensive players but they just barely scrape in ahead of guys like Dwight Howard who didn't make it. Soon he will drop out of the Top 75 once guys like Jokic, SGA, Luka etc. overtake him in greatness. Also, Michael Jordan wasn't just the best of his era, he is the Greatest of ALL time! Don't be disrespectful!
mo stokes deserves a shoutout, maybe even his own video. truly one of the earliest point-forwards/point-centers, if not the earliest. dude could literally do anything on the basketball court. shoulda also shouted out jack sikma. one of the earliest stretch 5s who was also a great rebounder and passer.
@3:45 ....ugh. such a bs narrative that's always used out of context. saying 'nearly advanced to the conference finals' is just a fancy way of saying pip won 1 playoff series without Mike. And sure, Mike didn't advance to the 2nd round until pip got there; but let's not over inflate his 7.9 pts rookie average that year and add significance, while ignoring Mike's mvp/dpoy that same year. PLUS, when pip advanced without Mike in '94, bj and horace were all-stars; with players on that team with 3 rings already; while Mike was the lone all-star, with Oakley being the 2nd leading scorer...until his "SAVIOR" pip arrived and "HELP CARRY" Mike beyond the 1st round in '88.... STF^ with the nonsense 🤦🤦🤦
@smokecops5009 ok fine, scratch the dpoy then. Mike's dws that year: 6.1, pip's was 2.6. No argument that Mike was a top 10 defender in the league in '88. Still doesn't help the 'underrated' argument.
One player I remember as underrated when I was younger was Danny Granger, he won the most improved player award with the Indiana Pacers. Also, another underrated play is Tim Duncan because nowadays he doesn't often get mentioned when talking about the top 5-10 players of all time. Maybe this is because there are just so many great players over the course of the NBA or maybe its because he wasn't a flashy player hence his nickname the Big Fundamental. Duncan ushered in a winning culture in San Antonio with the Spurs and his championship series in 2014 is definitely overshadowed by the rise of the Steph Curry and the Warriors in 2015.
I think John Paxson deserves to be mentioned in this list as well. A highly clutch player during his time with the Bulls. Most importantly, he was the one who took the game winning shot to give the Bulls their first threepeat, yet not many people remember him.
Yeah expected both Paxson and Horace Grant to be shown as in the shadow of Mike. I firmly believe Horace Grant as a no1 option could have been a 20 and 10 player. But he was always the no3.
It's Bosh for me! People forgot he was arguably the best PF in the league before he got to Miami and without him we probably don't win those rings. Had it not been for those blood clots, he would've gotten his respect. I also don't forgive the Heat for that because I swear he was cleared but Miami knew they could save the salary cap if he missed out for a full year due to injury.
This is why from a technical aspect. Nobody’s the goat. It’s a team game. If you avg 30 and the team avgs 100. Those other guys gotta drop that 70. Everybody in the goat convo had amazing help.
I never understood why people always made it seem like Jordan never played on stacked rosters during his run. I’m saying this in a non-judgmental way, every great player had a good roster around them.
Bosh was a all star on the Raptors and he was a top forward for the Raptors Bosh became a stretch big for Miami and won rings but still doesn’t get recognition as a player before becoming a heat
What underrated players did we miss?
