Pre-Durant, the Warriors are considered to have built the best "superteam" from the draft in modern times (where I define "modern times" from when...
In the NBA thread, I discuss how NBA coaches don't matter as much as people think. For instance despite that Mchale is considered a bad coach by...
He had two seasons of 54 and 56 wins. If he was so woeful, then clearly coaching is overrated and doesn't matter. How many more wins would an...
What makes Spoelstra so great? Anyone could have won with the Lebron era super teams. If anything, Brooks > Spoelstra. Would Spoelstra have...

Pippen is more of a supporting #2 player on a great team or a top player on a mediocre team than glue guy I think. Maybe he's not a player that...
Your definition more or less matches mine. But I think Green fits since he really doesn't fill up the stat sheets most days either. The triple...
I know that Rodman is the greatest rebounder of all time. But did he do enough outside of rebounding to be a glue guy?
What distinguishes top all around players vs top glue players though is that a glue player isn't quite at the level to lead a team or build...
I was going to post in the Draymond Green thread but decided to open it up more generally. It's seems beyond doubt that Draymond Green is the top...
