On the list at all or relative to position.


Jermaine O'Neal seems ridiculous.

Meh. He has been widely considered a superstar at points in his career. I dont remember Jermaine O'neal being anything better than a good role player.

Dampier and Brian Grant


Injuries happened to a lot of those guys on the list, but neither of these guys could really ball (and I really like Brian Grant).

I was think Johnson being at #6 more than anything. His max contract has to be one of the worst investments ever.

Jermaine Oneal was much better than Joe Johnson in his prime.

The answer to the original question is Erick Dampier though.

ETA: or Brian Grant, didnt notice him before.

for the hate Jermaine is getting here, at the time he got the contract, he was a top 10 player in the NBA.

multiple All-Star and made a couple of All-NBA teams in the early 00s. Also finished 3rd in MVP one year. I'd say his peak was better than Joe's. He got banged up based on his style of play though. He was and still is a tough SOB.

Can still do this

suck it Dwight

I guess I always over looked him because he was the second best O'Neal for so long
