While Joe Smith certainly didn't live up to expectations, especially as a #1 overall pick, you can't really call him a bust. They guy was in the league for over 10 years and - you said it yourself - had decent off-the-bench contributions.
@DNSKansas2 жыл бұрын
But if you're the #1 overall pick, you should be better than a off-the-bench contributor for the majority of your career. Considering the Warriors could have had McDyess, Stackhouse, Wallace and Garnett, Joe Smith is a huge bust. Not LaRue Martin bust, but certainly a bigger bust than Sam Bowie.

Next four picks (not in order): Kevin Garnett, Antonio McDyess, Rasheed Wallace, Jerry Stackhouse. Theo Ratliff and Michael Finley were taken later in the round. GS in the 90s coulda had any one of them, but instead drafted a mediocre journeyman (who, as a positive, I do share an alma mater with in UMD). With his longevity, he ain't a TOTAL bust, but you're lying if you're telling me he didn't massively underperform for the No. 1 pick, especially when the first overall selections in the years before and after him were an All-Star and HoFer respectively

I dunno if I would necessarily consider Shawn Bradley a bust. I know he was the #2 pick, but I remember a game as a Dallas Maverick where he was something like two assists shy of a quadruple double. The reason his FG shooting % was lower that expected is because was more of a jump shooter than most guys his size at the time. I think if he had played with more intensity, he would’ve been a much better player. Basically, I agree with you that he was inconsistent.

OK. I stopped watching after number 6 Bryant Reeves. I felt labeling Joe Smith a bust was abit of a stretch but to put Bryant Reeves on this list is totally off. His NBA career points of almost 13 a game and almost 7 rebounds average a game are not bust numbers. I was a huge fan of college ball in the 90's and could name you 10 players that were more qualified as being a bust then both Reeves and Smith. in fact the 94 draft alone had 4 bust in the top 10 if we're sticking with your apparent definition of a bust . Donyell Marshall the 4th pick 11 points a game. less rebounds over his career. Sharon Wright. the number 6 pick, career 9 points 5 rebounds a game. Number 7 Lamond Murray. career 11 points a game, number 9 Eric Montross 4 points and 4 rebounds average for his career and he was the same position as reeves. Let's continue. the same draft class as Reeves. 95. number 8 pick shawn respect. 5 point a game average for his career. number 9 pick Ed O'Bannon who averaged more points in college then Bryant. 5 point average a game for his career. 96 draft-number 7 pick Lorenzen Wright 8 points a game for his career. 97 draft-number 5 pick Tony Battle. 6 points a game average for his career. 14 year career in the league. number 8 pick Adonal Foyle 4 points 5 rebounds average a game for his career. 98 draft-number 3 pick Raef Lafrentz 10 points and 6 rebounds average a game for his career. Right there are 10 players who are closer to being a bust then Reeves. the only thing that stopped Reeves from being better was injury. my list of the 10 guys I named in most their cases had a longer career with less stats. So next time you want to do a list, do your homework before making out some bogus list where the numbers do not support your argument. where if you put Reeves numbers for a career against all 10 of the guys I named, it's clear black and white they should be on this list before Reeves.

Mark Macon wasn't awful. He was what he was. Is college numbers were inflated because Chaney was such a great Coach. And as a Philly Fan .... I'm still not over Shawn Bradley. He had a long career as what he was . Just a backup defensive center. We could have drafted Chris Webber. We really drafted poorly in the early 90s We Also wasted a high pick on Sharone Wright.

GTFO with Joe Smith...he would have been more dominant if he had better franchise drafting him but he played 15-16 years with decent production....not a bust....Bobby Hurley was different n was probably the closest thing we got to see to the 2nd coming of Stockton n Cousy if not for his unfortunate off the court incident robbed him of playing long term same with Jay Williams

I think you can only describe a bust when a player was healthy but was not playing up to the their potential, otherwise, injuries affected their abilities to play can not be a bust.

LOOOOOL! It's what makes me keep watching, though. I actually thought it was a joke, at first. It's in the, "it's so bad- it's good" category. Also....I probably would keep my mouth shut if the very nature of his video is to laugh at other people's demise.

Ed O'Bannon, he was awesome at UCLA but just couldn't find his game in the NBA. He hurt his knee before even playing college ball and if he had stayed healthy could have been a huge star. I don't think he had the quicks for the NBA with his bum knee.
