    Stephen Jackson???

    He's a knucklehead but he has a ring and has been part of some pretty decent teams.

    His PPG is very impressive, but his efficiency ratings, winshares, etc are all very low for a guy who gets nearly 20 ppg.

    Zach Randolph is probably the biggest example of this.

    I have to go with Jason Kidd.

    He always seems like a great PG but doesn't really make his team win.

    You have to him between the years of 2000 - 2004.

    He is the main reason the fairly average Nets got to the Finals, two straight years in a row.

    see the post above this one. The Nets went from perennial pretenders to conference champs when he was added to the mix (and Marbury was subtracted).

    Al Jefferson... though this man will be a star or an all-star pretty soon.

    Zach Randolph is the epitome of this concept. Hers a guy who averages 20 and 10 at 46% from the field while the teams he played major roles on average 29 wins a season.
    That is a pretty damning stat.
    On the other hand you have a guy like Battier who averages only 10 ppg but whose teams average 45 wins a season.
    Pretty crazy.

    Pretty much anybody on the Clippers or Warriors. Plus, names like Marbury, Al Harrington, Elton Brand, JR Smith, Mo Williams (formerly) and Charlie Villanueva are a few others I would add.

    Yup pretty much. Randolph is both nuclear yet tantalizing at the same time. What other 20-10 players in their prime are as readily available as him? God help the league if a contender or borderline-contender figures out how to control and harness a player like that if they're willing to roll the dice a bit.

    You're kidding right? I'd absolutely LOVE to have Dirk Nowitzki playing for the Rockets.

    Randolph has never had anyone around him.

    He's a douche that wouldn't be able to hold it together if he ever did have something around him.

    You didn't read correctly. The question was about "all stats no stars" -- meaning guys who put up numbers but in reality they suck the life out a team -- in other words, anti-Battiers.

    Although Caron Butler is not a no-stats all star -- he does put up some pretty respectable box score numbers, even though he is underrated as a player.
