Nah he hit rock bottom in 2002-2003 (age-30, benched midseason), but enjoyed a career renaissance the next 4 years. In fact, 2004-2005 (age-32) was his best season since he left Toronto in 1998. The reality is he was never that good. He padded stats early in his career with the expansion Raptors, but the Raptors didn't see him as a franchise cornerstone and traded him because Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady needed higher usage. The Blazers had a stacked roster in the late '90s/early 2000s, so Stoudamire became just a rotation piece.

For sure Deron Williams and Brandon Jennings really peaked so early but their NBA careers really fell flat late honestly .. it’s just sad

D.Will was great. He just wasn't the same after his ankle injuries. Those ankle injuries really sapped away his quickness and any athleticism he had. That only made his defense much worse.

MCW was the case of no matter how bad a team is, someone has to score, rebound, and assist. His splits and PER were garbage his rookie year. It still managed to fool teams for several years.

Derron Williams 26 and 7 against the Spurs in the playoffs is pretty incredible. Kobe and Lebron are the only other guys would could put up those kinds of numbers against the Spurs in the playoffs. That's some pretty damn good company. I have to push back on Okafor though. In New Orleans, in limited minutes he would play pretty well. This guy just never found the right team that wants to utilize his skill set.

@mrmampmamp3 жыл бұрын
In Okafor's case, it wasn't 100% his fault. He wasn't just asked to adjust. He was asked to completely change his style of play. With his style, he won championships at every level of basketball until the NBA and became the 3rd pick in the draft. Then, the NBA decided that his style was no good.
@llamasalpacas13 жыл бұрын
I agree with the list, but I like how he mentioned how including players with injuries was a cop-out but then neglects to talk about how Knight tore his ACL and Jennings tore his achilles. I am not saying they did not deserve to be on the list, but he definitely should have mentioned their injuries.

To answer your question about T-Hill and the rookie of the year: Emeka Ohkafor. He won ROY with mediocre stats, then spent the rest of his career averaging the same thing each year

@farquadshmoogle91203 жыл бұрын
thats kinda unfair about Okafor and MCW. like you said, both had good rookie years but then fell off, but after their rookie years, they were traded or not given opportunity again. so how can they succeed if not given same opportunity that they succeeded in? both of them, you give them minutes, and opportunity, showed they can shine. but both never got opportunity after their rookie years.

He had already been cut by a couple different teams and bounced around a couple years before Linsanity happened. He’s really his own category, guys who were really good for a stretch of games then went back to obscurity.
