Both Ewing and Marino were great players, and fairly valued in modern times.  There was a time in the 80s where Marino was being ove hyped slightly as the best QB ever, which was silly bc a player from his own generation (Montana) was clearly better than him.

Ewing if anything is underrated, he just ran up against a force of nature...

Bill Russell?  Maybe---as a coach

Just my opinion, but I feel Russell is more a product of his era than a truly great player. Would he have been as good if he had to bang in the paint with Shaq, Olajuwan, Ewing or Robinson? I don't think so, personally.

There's a reason he's got a lot of rings....

Bill Russell played the majority of his career against 6'4" dudes that couldn't letter at Quinnipiac. Those films of him and dribbling-with-one-hand-Cousy make me puke. I'd own both of them in a rec league, and I'm awful

Who were the great W/R's Marino were throwing to compared to Montana's Jerry Rice ?? If Marino was on that 49'er team that Joe was on he would have had 4 bowls also..

Who are your most overrated motherf**kers ever? I'll begin:

1. Dan Marino

2. Patrick Ewing

3. Max Scherzer

 

 

Marino? He is one of the best QBs to play the game. In his time, I hated when the Jets faced him.
