    OS NBA Players Rating: Player #11 - Shareef Abdur-Rahim

    Guess what's back . . . back again . . . blah blah blah . . . anyway after sometime, it's time to continue on our ratings. I really wanted to see where Vince Carter stands on our scale, but there is just too much negativity surrounding him. I am almost certain that he will get a lot of votes that are a little on the low side (for him). So, we'll just put up the guy who (possibly) may as well take his place in Toronto very soon. Shareef Abdur-Rahim. What an unfortunate player. Just last year, I was told that he has the worst player winning percentage out of all active players in the NBA. He has played for the Vancouver Grizzlies. Garbage. He has played for the Atlanta Hawks. Garbage. He was given the nickname, "SAR(s)" just this week because the team sucks wherever he goes. He was said to be "the worst player ever to average 20 and 10." Ouch. That's harsh. He has been a walking mismatch hell when it comes to defense. He is too slow to guard the small forwards, and not strong enough to guard the paint. Who knows he may have been considered a great player if he were put on the right team. This summer, a couple of people were saying that they were one Shareef Abdur-Rahim away from going deep into the playoffs. He has put up some good numbers. A little over 20 and 8 for his career. But is that because he's talented, or because he HAS to average those numbers, being on the worst NBA teams and all?

    Shareef Abdur-Rahim
    Position: Power Forward
    2003-2004 Stats (85 games): 16.3 ppg, 48% FG%, 7.5 rpg, 2.0 apg, 87% FT%
    2003-2004 Playoffs (Did not Make the Playoffs):
    2004-2005 Stats (7 games): 15.1 ppg, 53% FG%, 7.1 rpg, .9 apg, 83% FT%

    Best Season: 1999-2000 (82 games): 20.3 ppg, 47% FG%, 10.1 rpg, 3.3 apg, 81% FT%

    Participated in the 1997 Schiek All-Rookie Basketball Game
    Named to the 1996-1997 NBA All-Rookie First Team

    1 time NBA All-Star

    Career Highs:
    Points: 50
    Rebounds: 22
    Assists: 13
    Steals: 7
    Blocks: 6

    Rules:

    If you vote for him to be a 3/10 or under, you must provide a good explanation for your vote, or else it won't be counted (to avoid haters).

    If you vote for him to a 10/10, you must provide a good explanation for your vote, or else it won't be counted (to avoid homers).

    The scale is based on the CURRENT talent in the league. This means that it is possible to achieve a 10, even if the player is not Michael Jordan.

    10 - Elite Level
    5 - Average Player
    1 - Surprisingly in the NBA

    Again, this is on a scale of today's talent. This also means that some players can be voted as a 1/10 if they are the worst of the worst.

    LAST PLAYER VOTED: Andrei Kirilenko

    Him and Elton Brand are cursed with the "Awesome talent, team ends up sucking" syndrome. SAR is pretty damn good, I dont know if its because of him his teams suck or not since I dont watch him on a regular basis, but his stats go completely unnoticed because of the teams. Hopefully this Toronto trade can get him going and maybe he can be more in the forefront.

            Gave him an 8. Can put up close to 20 10 every night if he's the starting powerforward.

            Not a great defender, not the greatest athlete.

                i gave him a 7 because he can score and rebound, but he is a bit of a tweener (which is not always a bad thing), and he is not a good defender.
                Just wait till Arsenal moves into Emirates Stadium.
