Favorite Ballas that ARENT Superstars

What's ya'lls favorite ballas in the L past/present that you held in high regard that lots of people shrugged off? Someone who wasn't a mainstream superstar that you were really feelin' as a player.

For me it was Cedric Ceballos and Antione Carr..I really liked Cedric's ability to heat up in a hurry and score in bunches...his attitude coulda used some work but I liked him...and I really liked Big Dog Carr..dude was tough as nails.. how bout ya'll?

 

I like BJ Armstrong, Kenny Smith, Orlando Woolridge, Manu Ginobili, Kevin Johnson. Others too, but these guys came to mind. Guys who were close to all-star level(or were all-stars) who never were regarded as superstars.

 

Detlef Schrempf, Hersey Hawkins, Sam Perkins, Nate McMillan and Dez Mason.

 

Mark Price, Larry Nance, Brad Daugherty, Gerald Wilkins, Spud Webb, Earl Boykins...

I better stop, I can reach 100's.

 

Manu Ginobili, Sam Perkins, Detlef Shrempf and BJ armstrong.

 

No doubt King James what about Muggsy Bouges, Harold Miner and Tom Chambers.

Chambers in his prime was pretty darn good.

 

Detlef Schrempf, Hersey Hawkins were prime examples of very good players who just played the game without any real credit.

There are so many different players from the past you can name.Sadly players you can't market likely won't get the high praise they deserve.

 

Steve Kerr, Kevin Willis, Tony Dumas, Michael Finley, John Paxson, and the ultimate player in the present....Sam Cassell

And what about Oscar Robertson, I have not seen this guy play a game in my life but to average a triple double is something I admire. Thats the epitome of the complete game. In my opinion he doesn't get as much press as magic, michael, larry and wilt, he deserves more.

Michael Finley is one of THE most underated players ever to play in the NBA. He should have been an All-Star at least 3 years in a row now.
as for other players Larry Johnson and Juan Dixon and Steve Blake.

 

fav player in the past: darryl dawkins, chocolate thunder. in the present: michael finley, nick van excel, bobby jackson.

i think manu ginobili is going to be a superstar

 

Current: Andrei Kirilenko( I think he is a Superstar, but many do not), Manu Ginobili, Chris Andersen, and Quentin Richardson.

I liek the first 3 because they play hard nose defense, which I like.

I like Q because he is a fun player to watch and the head bop thing is always cool.

Past: Jeff Hornacek

 

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting King James:</div><div class="quote_post">Chambers in his prime was pretty darn good.</div>

So true, he was MVP of the All-Star game in Seattle, and scored over 50 points in a game a few times.

 

Jeff Hornacek, Steve Kerr, Wesley Person, Kelvin cato, Maurice Taylor...I could go on and on....

 

Emanuel Ginobili, Chris Andersen, Earl Boykins, Sam Perkins, Spud Webb, Desmond Mason, BJ Armstrong, Kenny Smith, Steve Kerr, and several others.

 

Oh yeah, I'd like to add Charles Oakley and Johnny Pax to my list.

 

Jamal Crawford, Eddy Curry, and Tyson Chandler, soon to be superstars (i hope) :mrgreen:

 

Troy Murphy, Eric Snow

 

speedy claxton, earl boykins, and gerald wallace(he has some sick dunks)
