Just because his team offered him a lot of money doesn't mean he wasn't good...

Not a good defender at all and although his offense was good at one point...he eventually struggled after his Celtic days. And one season, even shot 38 percent from the field...which is pretty subpar for a PF. I just think he is hella overrated.

Right but this is about players in their prime or else Hinrich is a subppar shooter and passer. Josh Howard is injury prone and isn't anywhere the defender he use to be or worth the contract he signed. And David West is an okay player, who is better by playing with Chris Paul and having injuries to all the other top scorers on the team and gets the most out of his abilities.

True that...but I still wanted to express my personal sentiments about Walker because I thought he was being overrated for a second by others in this thread.

id take kobe n ai over wade n lebron, and even though 03 has a better frontcourt offensively, the 96 team clearly has the better defensive frontcourt with camby and oneal. plus they can shoot the lights out with nash, allen, and stojakovic

same reason I picked 1996.

Like the backcourt better and got shooters that can light it up
