no its not, i said McGrady is the most overrated player in the past 15-20 years.
McGrady is this Era's Mark Aguirre. Shaq's team never got better
Also, A Fake #1 option could be Antwan Jamsion. He had good numbers in GS but was not a good #1 option on a good team.
I don't think thats a fair assessment. You pointed out yourself that the Magic got the number one pick after Mcgrady left. If the rockets come out and go 10-0 to start the season next year are we going to say they are better off without yao and mcgrady? When they won 11 games in a row 2 years ago without yao we didnt say that yao should immediately be traded because he is no help to this team. Fact is mcgrady brings a unique skill set to houston that no one can match, yao as well. i think if mcgrady was as expendable as you are suggesting he would have been traded already. He is just waiting to come back and prove all his doubters wrong.
Pierce, Nowizki, Webber (who couldn't stay on the court) and Allen over McGrady really? You don't know much about him i assume, he isn't Ben Gordon, he doesn't give up 30 to his man that often and he was signed in Orlando to be a defensive stopper until Hill got hurt so obviously he was interested in defense at one point.
When did he play defensive in Tronto he was known for dunking and scoring (he was signed to be a scorer).... McGrady was never really an ironman himself... Dude always gets lit up people never noticed cause he was dropping 30 or 40 points... Grant Hill was injured was always hurt... McGrady and defensive thats a joke...
he wasnt considered a defense of stopper but he was never by no means as bad as a defender as you say so im not sure where you are getting that from he played average defense not great nor was it bad...i used to follow mcgrady, watching most of his games so youre not gonna convince me he was such a bad defender nor that he was overrated in his prime ...and name all these times he gave up 30-40..i can think of a couple which comes out to the same average as most of the best shooting guards that have played
webber wasnt one of a kind..he was a good player but far from one of a kind...he MIGHT go to the hall of fame..if he was a one of a kind he would have had at least one mvp a couple first team all nbas and be a first ballot hall of famer..sorry his stats and what he did is far from one of a kind...that was a pretty funny joke though
too early to call him a bust. And I don't see many similarities in Durant and Worthy other then they were both skinny forwards. Worthy was a poor shooter past 18 feet, and he liked to attack the rim. He had some nice spin moves around the basket. Durant will probably hit more threes next season then worthy had during his entire career.
yeah, I actually thought Nash should'nt have won either of those mvp's. But I do think he should have won it the year they gave it to Dirk, but there was no way they were gonna give nash 3 in a row when he probably did'nt deserve the first 2.
