    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Yes, Scotti actually said that in the ABC pregame show just moments ago. He compared him to Chris Webber and how they had identical numbers, but at least Chris had advance in the playoff more often KG. He continued, saying how KG won all of this individual accolates but he can't even take his team to the playoffs. Mark jackson disagree and said that he didn't have the right peices around him. Other stuff they talk about... They all agreed that Lebron lacks killer instinct that Kobe had, and that he underperforms in the 4th qtr. They did say Lebron is smarter and is a much better team player...he just doesn't kill like Kobe. All panel had agreed, Yao Ming is the most dominate player in the 2nd half and they would rather build a team around Yao then T-Mac.</div>

    i dont really think he's underachieved THAT much. He's won an MVP and took his team to the WCF's. Other than that year, he hasn't had much of a supporting cast, except for one year, and then Sam Cassell got injured.

    Never liked the guy anyway, but now he's reached a new level of idiocy.

    I don't think he;s overrated. Who views him as anything more than a great player who can't win?That's what I thought

    I have always thought he was overrated and an underachiever. His stats have always been fantastic, but his game is too relied on jump shot for a big man, and hasn't proven he is a winner throughout career.

    Kg rarley takes the game into his own hands and waits for his TEAMATES [​IMG] to help. His stats are amazin but they have no impact onto his team winning.

    Yes minimal. Look up stats on how his team performs when he's not playing and get back to me.

    KG is a jump shooter that has trouble getting shots. He relies too much on other people like Cassell to get the job done. He is watching the offense a lot of the time. His impact on the game is not as big as Dirk or any of the other top players.

    Wow you're all ridiculous. You're basing everything on this season. Also, all those other superstars have more help than he does.

    Because he had help in 02-03. Name one other superstar that carries his team into the playoffs solo, with the exception of Kobe. Iverson always has more help than KG also, so don't say him.

    I've already argued on this about how people say Kg doesn't have teamates. I won't go into too much detail but in 2003 i believe Minny won 50 games and i believe had the 4th seed. They lost.edit: Tmac has carried his team into the playoffs. Duncan in 2003 lead a weak team to a championship [the second leading scorer was at 13 points

    T-Mac actually had quite a bit of help that year, and TD had alot of good role players. Manu, Tony, David Robinson..
