Who thinks Gilbert Arenas is one of the most underrated players in the NBA?

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.

Brevin is great..I had him on my fantasy..great source of assists and steals.  However, it has to be Elton Brand..he just gets overlooked because he plays for the Clippers...awesome player who deserves to be a perennial All-star.  He puts down 20pts and about 10 boards nightly...not many players can say that. He also did a great job getting the Clippers to the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Underrated..  In history would be Sam Perkins. He was a center in the late 80's and 90's who could nail a three at any minute. Was one of the first to do this. Now Luke Ridnour pg of the Seattle Sonics. Simply because he gets everyone such great looks. One of the many reasons Ray Allen broke the three point record this year.

Okay I think the kids got great potential and his having an outbreaking season. However, I don't think he's an all-star. Think about it, there are bunch of other SGs in the nba that are better than him. Kobe Bryant, Jason Richardson, Ray Allen, Manu Ginobli, Tracy Mcgrady, Vince Carter, Richard Hamilton, Joe Johnson, Dwyane Wade, etc. I'd take any of these guards over Kevin Martin. But don't get me wrong, he's a good player. But I don't think he's quite there at an allstar level. In the future however, I think he'll be an allstar and great player. Only time will tell, but right now he looks to be great.

YES. Most of today's retarded NBA fans will tell you Iverson is the greatest, but the Sixers are going nowhere with him. He's a cancer for whomever he plays with and a total ballhog who never gives anyone else a chance. I really think the Sixers could be a great team without him. Iverson is flashy, but in a team game, he is terrible. I was impressed with him during the Olympics, until I realized his terrible approach to playing basketball may have well sunk the team.\n\nOther overrated players include Lebron James, KG and Kobe. Most of today's stupid NBA fans think the world of them, but real fans know better.

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.

I also think it's a disgrace, especially in light of who they picked ahead of him -- Shane Battier, Gilbert Arenas, Greg Oden (high school kid)?  Give me a break.  While some people may not agree with certain aspects of his personality, nobody can deny that he plays with a whole lot of heart.  Practically, he presents matchup challenges to any team.  While his team didn't get it done last time, D. wade and Lebron James were on the team as well last time, and they both got invites.  AI, future hall of famer, doesn't deserve this snub.

I'd have to say that Antwan Jamison (Wizards) is.  The guy plays second banana to Arenas, but he's still a MOTHA!

it is amazing..how so many wanna be people...need a leader of the pack to enjoy a sport.  It is amazing how so many people can not respect a group of guys like themselves (humble and talented) who are awsome at the game of basketball.  It is amazing how we place the Kobe and the LaBroms of the world higher than anything or anyone.  Do they not talk and walk like the rest of us?  The Detroit Pistons are a great talented team and do not need a STAR because they are all STARS.

The pundits and industry insiders all point to Tim Duncan.  He has a great low post game.  He defends, and gets his teammates involved in the offense.  He doesn't have the ego that most NBA stars have, which makes him coachable and willing to listen.\n\nThat last fact alone puts him above the vast majority of his peers.

It might be Prince...definitely not Chauncey...he came in 5th in MVP voting.\n\nCould be Arenas.  Also could be Elton Brand.  There's a lot of underrated players out there.

1\nwhen it comes to numbers (scoring and rebounding) chamberlain is king. when it comes to being all-around, oscar robertson is at the top, even averaging a triple double for one season. \nstill, most people including me consider jordan the greatest of them all because he was a combination of talent, skill, desire, success, fortitude and timing. \ntalent and skill-scoring title, mvp trophies, all-star status, defensive player of the year.\ndesire-competitive streak, the willpower to tilt the game outcome to his team's side. takes every game seriously. \nsuccess-three-peat not accomplished by modern greats bird, magic, hakeem. doing it twice just stresses the point. \ntiming-storybook career: jumpshot to win an ncaa title. being beaten by everyone before finally succeeding after a 7 year struggle. \n\n2\ngiven time, some of the new stars today will almost reach the pinnacle of jordan's popularity and success. but IMO, no one will. he was everything at once. kobe will always lack the charisma. iverson will never be a three-peat winner nor become a defensive player of the year. lebron does not have the killer instinct and will YET. sorry, but carmelo is just not on the same league as kobe, james and wade. \n\n3\nyes, he would have won with another set of players. if his sidekick was not pippen, then he would have had another super partner. people will compensates                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 \n\nif he did not have grant, then he had rodman. if he did not have paxson, he had kerr and kukoc. he and whoever his teammates then would learn how to compensate.

NY Point Guards would make great "And 1" players but for whatever reason they struggle with the structure required to play the NBA game...that to say I agree these guys are talented but yes are overrated when you put them in the scheme of the NBA...they run neck and neck with the idea the University of Arizona is considered "Point Guard U"...even though they feature\n\nDamon Stoudamire\nMike Bibby\nGilbert Arenas\nJason Terry\n\nThese guys are good scorers but are not good play-making point guards...(check your stats you wont find any of these guys in the top ten in assists year in and year out)

The man is a great talent... If you ever heard the mans' life story you too would love the man... He was constantly told in his life that he was never going to make it to the NBA... Boy did he prove the world wrong.  Besides the man has shoots the ball well he distributes the basketball and even get a couple of boards.  His work ethic also is second to none.  Gilbert Areanas in my book is GREAT!!!

He is the best center in the nba. He''s not a center so you can't compare him to power forwards. The best center used to be Shaq but he is too old already and the torch is now passed to Yao. He still has a ways to go but he is improving every year and is definitely the best center right now.
