Profoundly weird list.
― polyphonic, Thursday, 27 January 2011 00:21 (fourteen years ago)
fuck them. I'm not watching a slideshow or clicking through 50 pages so they artificially inflate their hit count.
I'll take your word that it sucks.
― EZ Snappin, Thursday, 27 January 2011 00:23 (fourteen years ago)
That keeps him from being placed within the top 25.
Is what they say about the #25 guy.
― polyphonic, Thursday, 27 January 2011 00:23 (fourteen years ago)
i kept reading those blurbs about each player and imagined them in the voice of gerald ford as depicted on the simpsons.

if you don't win a championship, you are overrated
i should write sports articles.

Good idea. The barriers to entry are very low in that field.
Displaying a real inside knowledge of sports just confuses a lot of sports fans, so you're better off not going down that road. The key seems to be a willingness to make bold pronouncements with an excess of certainty, bolstered by some sort of argument. The argument in favor of your bold position need not be based on much; your excess of certainty supplies most of the juice.
You'll know you are succeeding when you get at least 100 idiots who want to argue with your articles. Name-calling and contempt are just measures of success.

annoying internet trend that must stop: spreading an article across dozens of pages so your site gets more clicks/advertising revenue.

smh @ 18 of the top 25 articles mentioning the word "championship"
― Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 03:20 (fourteen years ago)
this really is the worst article ever written in the history of the internet
― Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 03:21 (fourteen years ago)
the very first sentence: "this list is basically bullshit"
I debated whether to put Darko on here, given he isn't really rated that highly anyway

re: derek fisher
He is one of the ultimate complements on the floor.
But that's what he is—a complement to bigger stars.
YES THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT EVERYONE THINKS ABOUT HIM YOU FUCKNUT SO HOW IS HE OVERRATED?
― basedketball (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:27 (fourteen years ago)
he is overrated tho
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:41 (fourteen years ago)
which is p typical for everyone on dynasties
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:42 (fourteen years ago)
i mean like most overrated player ever: bill russell
but fisher does suck for real
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:43 (fourteen years ago)
People think he's a B when actually he's a B-.
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:43 (fourteen years ago)
c+ at best! obv l.a. has been the perfect place for him as their offense doesnt really require dynamism from its point guard - and he was a v good defender in his younger days
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:48 (fourteen years ago)
right now hes prob the worst starting pg in the nba
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 19:49 (fourteen years ago)
i mean there must be worst but i cant think of them off the top of my head
I don't like PER, but the following PGs have lower PER than Fisher this year (who is #59 among PGs): Steve Blake, Ish Smith, Acie Law, Ronnie Price, Chris Duhon, and Johnny Flynn. That's it!
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:06 (fourteen years ago)
wow
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:11 (fourteen years ago)
i dont even know who two of those guys are
"ish smith"

This writer doesn't even understand what the word "and" means:
"Teammates have to constantly help him, and if it wasn't for his offensive prowess, the Phoenix Suns would lose constantly."
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:16 (fourteen years ago)
Man, that guy is the only thing holding his team together -- he's so overrated.
― Mr. Snrub, Tuesday, February 1, 2011 10:09 PM
kinda h8 the espn site for this reason
― am0n, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:17 (fourteen years ago)
And seriously enough with this "he hasn't won a championship" bullshit. I'm going to start a bot site that just auto-writes "analysis" pointing out every player who hasn't won a championship. Or no fuck that, I'm going to do an "underrated players" piece about all the complete turds of players who have won championships.
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:20 (fourteen years ago)
xp i should see if there's an add-on or greasemonkey thing that kills those autoplays
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:21 (fourteen years ago)
xpost, oh sorry ZS made exact same point nm
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:23 (fourteen years ago)
___ is overrated because he hasn't won a championship vs. Derek Fisher is overrated because he's won a championship
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:23 (fourteen years ago)
Nate Robinson: some people say he's pretty good, but at 5'7", he's just not very tall.
― hey boys, suppers on me, our video just went bacterial (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 20:24 (fourteen years ago)

There should be a list of the 50 players who most insistently and loudly overrated themselves. Guys like Gilbert Arenas and Monta Ellis.
