Darko doesnt sit on the bench all game because he is good at basketball, he doesnt play because he doesnt show that he can play, or wants to play. The minutes would be there for him if he showed he wanted to play, even if it was only 3-6 a game.

Not necessarily.

Kevin Martin only played 23 games last year, and maybe 2-3 minutes a game.

Hes tearing it up this year like a mofo.

I wouldn't know, since I don't follow Detroit.


I will say this, it depends on the staff. Some coaches just don't like playing specific players. Freshman year, I probably could have started, but I just didn't click with the JV coach... so I sat for part of the year, and quit after he put me in with 1.8 seconds left. I came back my sophomore year and he basically told me to fuck off. Its not all the players fault.

I would have an attitude problem too if 99% of the world called me a bust and I didn't have much of a chance to prove myself.

Maciej Lampe is up there. Or would that be down there?

LMFAO at you people. You probably haven't even seen half these guys play and look at their stats.

Tim Thomas-Agree
Michael Olowakandi-Agree

and some others, but DEFINATLY not Chandler. :roll:

Mon Feb 13, 2006 10:08 am

I have a few more

1. The entire Knicks roster
2. Greg Ostertag
3. Adonal Foyle
4. Slava Medvedenko

Mon Feb 13, 2006 10:18 am

Greg Ostertag and Slava Med-Ve-Denko for sure.

How is Greg Ostertag a bust? He was picked 28th overall!

He averaged 5ppg, 1.7 blocks, and nearly 5 rebounds per game so far in his career. In 20 minutes of play a game.

His Breakout season was his second one. He averaged just over 7ppg, 2bpg, and 7 rebounds in 23 minutes, while starting 70 of 77 games.

Thats not a bust, sorry.

If he was a top 10 pick I might agree with you, but hes not. Hes more or less a second rounder (last pick of 95 draft), so I don't agree with you.

Foyle puts up about the same numbers as ostertag, but he was picked 8th overall, so I might agree with you on that. He was somewhat of a bust.

Medvedenko wasn't even drafted I don't think so hes not a bust period.

Slava??? Slava is a great offensive player... better than Cook. He is a big man that can create his own shot. I've been a fan of his ever since he signed with the Lakers in 2000 and wait.. 3 rings! lol

Mon Feb 13, 2006 5:45 pm

is this topic about "the biggest busts of the NBA" or "the worst players in the NBA"

Mon Feb 13, 2006 6:33 pm

Slava is a great offensive player

Mon Feb 13, 2006 7:54 pm

Jessze just because he is asain don't get so offended, and he is a bust. Absolute crap.

Greg Ostertag aint no bust, he's quite a good bench warmer..

Thu Feb 16, 2006 8:57 am

Adonal Foyle

Thu Feb 16, 2006 9:10 am

Mr. Michael Olawakandi.

Thu Feb 16, 2006 12:19 pm

I reckon the Candyman's quite good, but his stats don't show that.
