2. He Was Overrated As A Player

He was a HS great around here, but in the NBA he was a nice player, but not great.
I never thought his game showed brilliance about the game, which would have suggested a great coach.
He wasn't a dumb player (or a dumb guy) but his basketball IQ wasn't exceptional.
The championship he won was with a team so talented & self-motivated that you or I could have won the title.
