Deron Williams 0 time allstar? He may be the best point guard in the league thats underrated

DWill has a SICK NASTY crossover!!! I have an underrated starting 5 for ya's

PG - Deron Williams - no time allstar is messed up
SG - Stephon Jackson - good pay, but still not enough cred
SF - Danny Granger - good hype last year but still no respect
PF - Mehmet Okur - Great shooter and defender, won in Detroit
C  - Kendrick Perkins - zero respect for his role and game
Can't stop, Rondo!

IMHO any underrated list has to start with Luis Scola.  Perkins also belongs on the list, as do Marc Gasol and Josh Howard.

Kevin Durant underrated?  Don't make me laugh.  Anyone could average 20 ppg with the number of shots he takes.  The underrated player on that team is Jeff Green, not Durant.

I will agree that Perk is definitely way underrated. He is the best around the basket defender in the league.

Here are some guys that fly under the radar but are some pretty good ballers Kevin Martin, John Salmons (had over 30 points twice this year against us), Thaddeus Young, Stephen Jackson, and Russell Westbrook.

 Best players that don't get much pub. or people don't talk about to much.  My first vote is for Danny Granger
Dude was an all-star.
I think he's overrated if anything.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

Big Al's starting to get some respect.
Dirk still doesn't get nearly enough here.
Deron Williams (better than Paul IMO), Chauncy Billups, Rondo and Perk (out of here), David Lee, Manu, Kevin Durant (sort of), Tony Parker (sort of), and Kirlenko.
I don't think Scola or M. Gasol are that underrated.

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner

Pau Gasol. 

LA is 117-36 since aquiring him and IMO he has become best big-man in the West. 

His efficiency in the playoffs last year was insane.  Without him, LA isn't a contender.

Well we know Chris Wallace under rated him!!!

(1) Joel Przybilla -- 2nd best player on the Blazers last year
(2) Luis Scola -- 2nd best player on the Rockets last year

Behind Shane Battier, right? If another Rocket was your #1 then Battier should be #3 on your list.

I put Battier up there. Along with our very own Kendrick Perkins.

I really think Perkins had his coming out party around the league the way he defended Dwight Howard essentially by himself for most of the playoffs this year.

Of course he'll still be disliked  ;).
