Pierce isnt underrated, everyone knows who he is. He has appeared in that Infusion basketball commercial. I'd probably say Maggette at SF, but he is injury-prone lately.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>PG: Sam CassellSG: Jason RichardsonSF: Gerald WallacePF: Pau GasolC: Nenad Krstic</div>I wouldn't say Cassell is underrated anymore. With the Clippers run and everything, now everyone knows who he is and how he's led the Clippers and so on. I would agree with, say, Arenas, definitely.
I still dont think Sam Cassell is underrrated at all..PG-Andre MillerSG-Joe JohnsonSF-Shane BattierPF-Pau GasolC-Mehmet Okur
Mehmet Okur is a very underrated player, good call CB4.I picked Zo because he is still amazing on defense, but people think he's old and he can't play bball anymore.
Jason Richardson is not underrated. He's actually overrated. I guess people consider him a #1 scorer at SG when his jumper isn't that great..
JRich is very underrated IMO. 23/6/3 is a fantastic statline considering he is NEVER mentioned in the same breath as other good/great swingman.
Cause the jumper isn't that good. Look outside of stats. Not to metnion his defense... well he doesn't have any. Everytime the Warriors play the Lakers they put Derek Fisher on Kobe. Don't want to get J-Rich tired? Maybe, but it has some to do with his terrible on-ball and perimeter D.
You're right, he isn't a great defender, but the dude is still one of the better scorers in the league. His jumpshot may not be better than say Kobe's, but it is still good enough to compliment his driving and to get him 23PPG on 45% shooting (PS- He is 39% from 3, which is a very good number).

He gets no recognition for what he does, period. GRANT HILL got more votes for the all-star game for christ's sake! Then he gets robbed of all-nba AGAIN.
yes for those of you who dont know jason richardson got 39% from three point land 6% percent better than last year and hes not even 25 i think. Hes an underrated shooter too.
