When i think of role players i think of guys who come in to do a specific task....Reggie Evans (rebounding), Bruce Bowen (Defence), Udonis Haslem (Rebounding) or guys who do a lot of things but in small doses (Jon Barry was a perfect example). Not guys that can be the teams best player in a lot of games.
Well, they can still be role players, as their role could be to carry the offensive load once in a while or something, but not expected to come out every night and do it. So I would still consider someone like that a role player.
