PLAYER NOTES (11/23/15)
Stephen Curry (94/PG)
The reigning MVP is playing out of his mind, leading the league in scoring with 34.7 PPG on absurd shooting percentages.  However, with Curry operating as a high-volume scorer his distribution game has taken a sizable hit.
Overrated: 83 Draw Foul, 89 Pass Vision, 98 Pass Accuracy
Underrated: 90/92 Close Shot, 88/89 Mid-Range

Draymond Green (83/PF)
Green is the modern NBA's version of Dennis Rodman - a unique, All-Star caliber role player who gets under the opposing team's skin (being the 3rd star on the best team since the 96 Bulls doesn't hurt either).
Underrated: 66 Free Throw

Harrison Barnes (77/SF)
Barnes has noticeably improved his shooting and is actively stealing some of Klay Thompsn's thunder.
Underrated: 78 Standing Layup, 70/68 Close Shot, 78/75 Mid-Range, 72 Free Throw

Andre Iguodala (77/SF)
The Finals MVP is shooting the ball with more consistency this season.
Underrated: 58/58 Close Shot, 36 Off Rebound, 67 Steal

Klay Thompson (84/SG)
With Curry playing so well, Klay has taken a back seat on the offensive end.
Overrated: 70 Driving Dunk, 68 Draw Foul

Festus Ezeli (74/C)
Building upon last year's success, the Warriors didn't miss a beat with Festus starting for the injured Bogut.
Underrated: 82 Standing Layup, 52 Driving Dunk, 35 Contact Dunk, 70 Standing Dunk, 58 On-Ball Def, 70 Low Post Def, 56 Pick and Roll Def, 66 Help Def, 40 Def Consistency, 67 Shot Contest, 74 Hustle

Jason Thompson (70/PF)
Position: C/PF

Ian Clark (66/SG)
Position: PG/SG

PLAYER NOTES (11/18/15)
Carmelo Anthony (87/SF)
Age/injuries have caught up to Melo.  Limited as a finisher, his reliance on his jumpshot has diminished his offensive rebounding to a career low rate.
Overrated: 78 Driving Layup, 75 Driving Dunk, 55 Standing Dunk, 88 Ball Control, 53 Off Rebound
Underrated: 79 Free Throw, 66 Def Rebound

Kristaps Porzingis (76/PF)
A better rebounder than initially advertised.  He'll be scary once his three-ball starts dropping.
Underrated: 76/70 Mid-Range, 75 Free Throw

Langston Galloway (73/PG)
The team's best shooter and it hasn't been remotely close.
Position: SG/PG
Underrated: 60/55 Close Shot

Derrick Williams (72/SF)
Had a big opening night, but on the outskirts of the rotation due to the ascension of Porzingis.
Position: PF/SF

Lou Amundson (71/PF)
Position: C/PF

Sasha Vujacic (69/SG)
Current ratings reflect the Sasha of five years ago rather than the one who was out of the NBA for valid reason.  I hated this signing and will continue to do so for the duration of the year.
Overrated: 85/78 Mid-Range, 83/75 3pt Shot
