Duncan, though he's not healthy.
KG, but he's lost his mind because of the losing.
Shaq, same old injuries, this season was supposed to be diffrent, but it's more of the same.

That was the top 3 players in the league, and while the league got better, they got passed by. Are any of them still consensus top 5?

It can't be Marbury,unless he's the one who gets to decide who gets to be a superstar.

Anyone who watches Timmy can see that he just hasn't been more than 80% all season and his production is about that much as well.

KG's production is what around fifth in the league overall.He just can't play all five positions on that team.They stunk and they tried to fix their problems,but they still stunk.He just can't make the Wolves a good team when they are so poorly constructed.

Ask me about Shaq after the playoffs.Ask me about Timmy after the Finals.It isn't like the regular season is going to be what anyone remembers about either of them.

KG is having a KG season. 21/12/4 pretty much. Its the rest of his team thats underacheiving...Not him

Tracy McGrady comes to mind. Because he is injury prone, it looks like the Rockets will not make the postseason. Maybe they can get a solid player in the draft but the trade for T-Mac is looking more and more like a bad trade for both the Rockets and the Magic.

It's not his best of seasons, and his team is garbage.

Garnett is 1st in overall efficiency if that's what you ment by production. If not, I apologise

.

I'd have to say Duncan. I'm pretty dissapointed with his performance this season. These injuries are a *****.

kobe isn't a top tier player in the nba...i would rather have ginobili on the spurs than kobe. easily...also a healthy t-mac, lebron, or wade any day of this or any other lifetime.

i would even perfer troy hudson over kobe at this point.

is ts% a more accurate measure of scoring efficiency than fg%, yes or no?

ChrisRichards said:
FG% is more accurate reflection on your performance in a game because nobody is defending you when you shoot a Free-throw.

ChrisRichards said:
And yeah, Kobe does work hard. Good for him. He learned that work ethic from MJ. He picked a good role model to copy.

BasketBallBoards.net: where "sometimes you just have to realize that you have no clue what the **** you're talking about" happens.

Thank you for proving my point that KG is not underacheiving, the rest of the team is.

KG is one of the 5 players on the court. Obviouslly he could be doing something different to help them win. They obviouslly need it. :biggrin:

Easily Kobe.

Kobe is underachieving. He should be averaging 40 ppg. Quite honestly, I am dissapointed.

Uhh i never knew its a team of 1 player instead of 5.

1 player alone cant carry a team that garbage. Its impossible.

Also KG's number are not usual KG numbers as opposed to what. His MVP season?

Iverson: is playing like... Iverson. No underachieving here.

KG: the same as AI.

Duncan: having a down season due to injuries. We'll see in the playoffs.

Shaq: Playing like everyone (except him) expected.

Marbury: No freaking superstar here!

Marbury never reached Superstar status...

Iverson - playing better the past 2 seasons than the 2 seasons before that

KG - slightly - had a slow start

Duncan - Hobbled - can't say he's underachieving

Shaq - What paulo said

Marbury - blah
