I keep asking this question


Are these players just gonna shoot every damn time never pass

Don’t care about making the playoffs


Say fukk the other players

The other players never want to shoot?


This is the dumbest argument ever!!


I know Greek freak is not a shooter but damn have you seen this dude play?

Sheed stays getting overrated based off the potential that he never reached.

I don't know why cats keep mythologizing his ability as if we didn't see him play in real time.

More importantly, there's absolutely no need to be disrespectful of Giannis like that when he's already proven to reach heights that Sheed never did. He could've just said Sheed would be great in today's league and kept it to that.

He’s constantly overrated. Its disgusting. He’s want even a top 5 pf in his own era.

Didn’t have that next level in him to get shyt done as a 1st option ect.

People in real time were saying sheed could have been one of the greats. He just didnt have the motor and dedication to do so. His skillset is more suitable for today’s game anyway. He would be a 6'11 Center playing 20 ft away shooting and creating space
Sounds dope. Even with the skill set mentioned where would that put him in the top 5 of today with a still weak motor and dedication?

So he didn’t have certain things in his game to make him a top player then


So why would that change now?


Having a motor is huge no matter the era

Typical golden state warrior babble. Iggy might be the biggest smart dumb nikka in NBA history. If sheed played today I'm not convinced he'd be better than Paolo, let alone fukking Giannis.

You can make this sort of thread about every player that underperformed. What's next? Lamar Odom would be a top 5 player? Stat would be a top 5 player? Tim fukking thomss would be top 5 player?

I guess all those team outings to go see Jordan Peterson that he and bogut drug the rest of the players too might have had an adverse impact on his cognitive ability.

Clown. Hate this guy (in a sports way).

Ppl don't really understand the intricacies of hoops

Hoops is not a sport where you can just look at the #s even though most of you are conditioned to do just that

Sheed gave all the best bigs problems on both sides

You'll never hear KG, Duncan, Dirk, Shaq, C. Webb, anybody disrespect Sheed

He was arguably one of the top 3-4 man to man on ball defenders in the league, he could switch on guards, he was unselfish, a willing passer, could post up, shot threes, QB a defense, post moves galore

The lakers lost in 04 bc of Sheed...his presence alone killed us

who is disrespecting him? If anything it's Iggy opening him up to the disrespect by gassing him.

Who are in the top consensus top five is he going to be better than? It's not Jokic, Giannis, SGA. Tatum? People say Luka is a top 5 player. Is sheed going above him?

He had no weaknesses in his game. 3 level scorer, great passer, defender. His problem was the sticky green


In this day and age of legal ganja.
The press would not have been able to portray him like they did.
Plus, teams would have respected his talent.
in the origibal three headed monster they jagged in washington.
Perception would have been different. It would be post corona. So no one would say shyt about his hair as well.
