Re: Most over/underrated players in the NBA Draft
Over: Adam Morrison
To be successful in the NBA, you have to have one on one skills. I can't wait to watch him attempt to score against Ron Artest, Quinton Ross, Bruce Bowen, basically any better than average defensive player. He will never be a top 2-3 player on a championship caliber team. Under: Tyrus Thomas I can not believe that there is any thought other than to take him first overall. He is ridiculously athletic and some people forget how young he is. His offensive game will only get better, and he is definitely a "game changer" on the defensive end. FWIW, I agree with the OP about Brandon Roy. I think he is the second best player in the draft. I am not so sure about JJ Redick being the most overrated, simply because I don't think that people are rating him that highly. I think he is a mid-first round pick, and can be a decent player given the right situation (he would fit in great along side a great penetrator that can dish, i.e. Lebron, Tony Parker, etc.)

Re: Most over/underrated players in the NBA Draft
The problem is Tyrus reminds me of Stromile. Hopefully he's better than that nucklehead. Personally I think Sheldon will be a pretty good Pro even though I hate him b/c he's a Dukie.

Re: Most over/underrated players in the NBA Draft
Nobody has listed a player who is overrated, or underrated. Tyrus Thomas and Brandon Roy are sure fire top 5 picks.
Overrated: Rudy Gay, Patrick O'Bryant Underrated: Shawne Williams, Ronnie Brewer.

[/ QUOTE ] I agree, he has a ton of upside/potential, but could easily just be a bust. I don't think he really has any type of honed offensive game, so hopefully he will get drafted by a team with the right type of coach (ie not a Larry Brown type guy)
