Yes Shaq is one of the most underated players of all time not by sports anaylsts but by the people and the fans. all of shaqs 3 teams have been successful.\n          He made penny hardaway bbetter Dwayne Wade and Yes he did make Kobe bryant \n\n            Kobe would not be able to play the way he is wihout shaq shaq is a leader and is definetly in the top 3 for centers of all time \n\n             Shaq deserves to get MVP every year. I am not a shaq fan. I think if he was not tall and strong he wouldnt be any good but he is. HE is also very athletic for his size\n\n        Any one who says kobe is better than shaq knows noting about basketball

I definitely agree with u.  Arenas is one of the most underrated players and dosen't get the cred and hype he should.  He is one of the greatest guards, and probably in the top 5-10 in the nba right now.  He's a great leader for his team and is a lethal scorer.  Arenas just isn't recognized by many and very underrated.  It's time we recognized this tremendous talent named Gilbert Arenas.

No way. its too soon to compare him to Micheal Jordan. People were doing the same thing to Kobe (people still are). The same thing to every cuacasian guy and larry bird.\n\nAlso there's no way to say who is the best basketball player of all time.

Shaq was better when he was with Kobe because during those years, he was on his prime. Right now with Wade, Shaq is already on the down side of his career. Yes he is still one, if not still the best Center around but like I said, he's not getting any younger.\n\nAll the hard fouls and injuries are now taking its toll on him and its not making him anymore agile than when he was with the Lakers.

No. Sorry he's good but there are just a lot more forwards better than him. Dwight Howard, Rasheed Wallace, Jermaine O'Neal, \nChris Bosh for example

Dwayne Wade is definitely in my underrated NBA players.Thanks to "King" Lebron James who has been getting all the overwhelming but overrated acclaims, ha.\nI see Dwayne as a very good player who is not an direct carbon copy of Michael Jordan, but rather as another player who might even outdo Michael Jordan (nothing against Michael Jordan, I'm a Jordan fan by the way). Great flexibility and humility as well. \n\nAnd Jason Williams, too. His assisting skills are just fantastic, but underrated. Thanks to the limelight that Steve Nash has always been getting. But I'd have to say that Steve Nash deserves the praises anyway coz he's good in what he does best, so it's kinda hard to just pull him out of that spot, hehe. But I just wish they'd notice the White Boy's wonders on the floor more often, holla.

I think he is an amazing player. He is very underated. But he can make those 3 pointers better than most players in the NBA, he can pass, and he can SCORE. It's only too bad that he plays for the Hawks and that he doesn't get a chance to showcase his talents.

A.i. is a great player but he doesnt have enough around him, as a heat fan, i get to see the dividends that shaq plays. he gets double covered and even triple covered, thus theres always someone open leaving the court open. i dont care how good AI is, if he doesnt have a dominant big man he wont win the big one. no, dalembert isnt a good big man, hes a softie.

At this point, Michael Jordan is the best player basketball has ever seen.  He was a consistent scorer, a crowd pleaser and incredible in the clutch...\n\nNo one has even matched that...

The most underrated players are Paul Pierce of the Boston Celtics,Jason Richardson of the Golden State Warriors,and Chris Bosh of the Toronto Raptors.\n\nThe most overrated players are Yao Ming of the Huston Rockets,Eddy Curry of the New York Knicks,and this year he is overrated Shaquille O'Neil.

that's where i'll put Kobe Bryant! he's one of the best NBA players around but i'd say he's not the best right now but if you're talking about looks, i'll vote for him! :)

There have been many greats like Wilt Chamberlain, but many peeps will undoubtedly say Jordan. But you can't forget Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Dr. J, Larry Bird, "Sir" Charles Barkley, Ervin "Magic" Johnson, Shaq...but Jordan is King

I definitely think Steve Nash deserved it this year. It was stupid that the LA fans was chanting MVP for Kobe Bryant. He's not the greatest player in the league, because Steve Nash is one of the few guards that truly make everyone around him better (the other guys are probably Kidd and James). But Nash also has the record and determination as well as the lack of height and atheleticism to show for it.

I do not think it will be Shaq because he missed a big chunk of this season. I think either Dwyane Wade, Steve Nash, or Shawn Marion would be great MVPs because they aren't big superstars like Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, or Allen Iverson, yet they are just as athletic.

Shaq should have won nearly every MVP since his third or fourth year even though i dislike him\nno one has every had a larger impact on a team, there has yet been a strategy that can beat him\nhe is underrated because most people dislike the fact that his only talents are enormous size, power, and athleticism
