Allan Houston: most underrated Guard of the last generation?

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

The most perfect jumpshot I've ever seen. Textbook isn't even enough to describe it. One of my favorite players of the past generation and criminally underrated because of that ridiculous contract. It's a shame he never got to play with a really good PG or post player (Larry Johnson does not count).

Only ray allen's compares

Better form than Ray Allen. It was strange to see Houston have an "off" shooting night

Then he left 2 weeks later. As a kid I remember hearing about Davidson lowballed him and NYK paid a grip(then paid him ANOTHER grip) This and Cecil getting traded RIGHT after was etherial as a kid.



Always liked how he used his quickness off to dribble to give himself space for the shot.

He was your guy, like Brandon Roy was your guy. #1 Qualities but missing that superstar it factor.

He just might be Ed, he just might be

New York paid out the ass for him, plus he wanted to play at MSG more than being a Piston.

Or it was just the money.

I remember his first game back in Detroit, he got booed like a MF and couldn't handle it

NY got blown out, and Houston's had like 2pts & 5 TO.

2nd best jump shooter I have ever seen behind Ray Allen. His shot was just

His game reminded me of Rays

I read Allen Iverson coming into this thread and was while opening it lol

But Allan Houston was always money with his shot definitely underrated

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

As a life long Knicks fan, I co-sign this thread. I was/am a big Allan Houston fan.

He was pretty good and in 03-04 him and keith van horn looked like they were about to save the knicks before he got hurt and was never heard from again. Also heard that Layden got offered Kobe for Allan Houston straight up in 2000 and declined

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Was he even better than prime Michael Finley?

 

[god shamgod]

Houston could shoot but he was absolutely terrible on defense and one of the worst defensive guards I ever saw.I'm surprised no one mentioned it yet in this revisionist love fest

West would never offer Kobe for anybody especially Allan Houston.

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

I was the biggest Houston Stan in high school

nikkas couldn't tell me a negative thing about Houston with out me being like
