    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Am I the only one now in days that thinks that it takes a team effort to win a championship? Just because he was a great player doesn't mean his teammates were.</div>Exactly. MJ couldn't do sh*t with some of Wilt's old teammates. Wilt was the only player who did EVERYTHING for his team. And by everything I mean EVERYTHING. Points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, minutes...you name it he did it. Has MJ ever averaged 48.5 minutes while putting up 50ppg and pulling down 26 rpg? Or, could he even do it? NO.Overrated:Bill Russell-Amazing player but was also lucky as f*cking hell to have a great coach and teammates.Michael Jordan-See Bill Russell.Underrated:Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West and Elgin Baylor, they were three of the most unlucky players to ever live.Hal Greer is not overrated. That is just stupid. Where do you think the modern 2 guard came from?

    Drazen Petrovic is pretty underrated. He is a hall of famer, but he only played four seasons and that's why people do not know who he is. 20+ ppg scorer though.
