Tenth: Duncan
Speaking of Duncan, new and old fans know a little about him, thanks to Duncan's long NBA career, so that many fans can watch him play, but people somewhat underestimate Duncan, he is not just an evergreen tree.
Duncan was highly capable when he first joined the league, outperforming many famous players and becoming a first-tier star in the league, and in the following season, Duncan became the core and cornerstone of the Spurs, who built a team around him to achieve the goal of winning the championship, and in Duncan's presence, the Spurs were the strongest team in the league, and almost every year was an absolute favorite for the championship.
Number Nine: Moses Malone
Now when people mention Malone, they think of Karl Malone, but in the 80s, when people mentionEd Malone, they only think of Moses Malone, who played in the professional league after graduating from high school, and after entering the NBA, he did very well.
When coming to the NBA, Malone is still a very young player, but his ability is already very strong, in the NBA for many years, Malone won three MVPs, 1 FMVP, and rebounding king and other honors, on personal ability, Malone twice suppressed the "Sky Hook" Abdul-Jabbar, led the team to win the Lakers, Malone's ability is very strong, but his fame is very small, people do not know enough about Malone, people underestimate Malone, failed to recognize how great Malone is.
Eighth: Wilkins
The NBA has several famous dunks, Wilkins is one of them, who has won the dunk contest because the dunks are good, Wilkins is nicknamed "the essence of human cinema", but Wilkins is not just a dunkman.
Wilkins is good at dunking, but also good at scoring, he has won the scoring king, when he was young, Wilkins attacked a big deal, very explosive, after suffering a major Achilles tendon injury, Wilkins jump shot accurate, but also can average 29 points per game, Wilkins's personal ability is very strong, can be said to be a superstar, but people do not have a deep understanding of this, most fans only know that Wilkins dunk is good.
Seventh: Rondo
Rondo has been in the NBA for many years and is also a veteran, and Rondo gives fans the impression that he is a point guard with a very high ball quotient, which is of course accurate, but it does not fully summarize Rondo, and Rondo is more than a high ball dealer.
At his peak, Rondo passed well, won assists many times, was the league's top point guard, and Rondo was also a very defensive point guard, he was selected for the best defensive team many times, and opponents could not take advantage of this through Rondo. Rondo also has another ability that cannot be reflected by the data, that is, the ability to control the field, Rondo is very aware of the trend of the game, can tilt the balance of victory to his side, and the real Rondo is far more powerful than the impression of Rondo.
Sixth: Battier
Battier came from a famous basketball school, in college, Battier developed a good habit, he is cool-headed, tactical literacy is very high, although the athletic ability is not too strong, but the ball quotient is high, Battier's performance on the court is also outstanding.
Battier is an excellent championship puzzle, which is something that everyone knows, but Battier is different from the general championship puzzle, he does a lot of things that the data can't reflect, such as key defense at key moments, or a scoring point in a score stalemate, Battier is a championship puzzle with leadership temperament, he can lead the team to win.
Fifth: Iguodala
Today's Iguodala is invisible in the regular season and does not perform much of himself, but fans who know Iguodala know that Iguodala is a big-scene player, and at key moments, Iguodala will not be invisible.
When Iguodala was young, he was also a super talented player, known as "Little AI", can score and defend, after coming to the Warriors, Iguodala became a role player, still able to attack and defend, has a big heart, 15 years of the Finals, Iguodala was temporarily given a heavy responsibility, and completed his task, excellent performance impressed the FMVP judges, the FMVP awarded to Iguodala, Iguodala is not an ordinary role player.
Fourth: Fisher
Fisher has played in the NBA for many years, he has never been a protagonist, has always been a supporting role, people's impression of Fisher is also a supporting point guard, but Fisher's role on the court is not just a supporting point guard.
Fisher and Kobe bryant played together for many years, in Kobe's side, Fisher knows his role, can share the pressure for Kobe, at the same time, he also has a big heart, at the critical moment, Fisher is the giant of the team, can help the team, the team can also rely on him, the Lakers with Fisher won a lot of games, this ability is many supporting roles do not have.
Third: Ginobili
Statistically, Ginobili is not a superstar player, that is, the best sixth-man level player, but only those who have watched Ginobili's game know that Ginobili is a superstar player, a dangerous player.
Ginobili found his place in the Spurs, the sixth man of the main team, although nominally the sixth man, but Ginobili is an indispensable player in the Spurs team, he gets the opportunity, the task he undertakes, are as heavy as the starter, and Ginobili is also a big heart player, when he is in a desperate situation, he will exert his creativity and help the team win, so there is a phrase "desperate to see the demon knife".
Second: Jodumas
Dumas played with Isaiah Thomas, Lambir, Rodman and others in the Pistons, and the three were called "bad boys", and people were full of criticism of them, but only to the people of Jodumas.
Dumas's style of play is different from the "bad boys", he does not use shady moves, the defensive action is very clean while the defensive effect is good, Michael Jordan also praised Dumas's defense, and in the finals, Dumas also had an excellent performance, won the FMVP, but such a strong player, but was forgotten by everyone, which is a very sad thing.
First: Billups
Billups entered the NBA as a flower show, and after some setbacks, Billups found his way to stand in the NBA, and Billups' NBA journey became smooth, giving Billups the opportunity to show himself.
Billups is an academic point guard, the style of the ball is not fancy at all, but very practical, can help the team, and at the critical moment, Billups is calm and calm, can play the key ball, in the 04 finals, Billups led the Pistons to win the championship, he was elected FMVP, Billups's stats are not explosive, but Billups is definitely a very capable player, and his promotion of the team cannot be measured by data.
