Darko is hands down the biggest bust of all time. He was supposed to be a left-handed Dirk

[kington32]

6th pick

3rd pick

 

[what up]

Mike Dunleavy as a #3 pick has been a bust(er).

 

[hood17]

Morrison had no chance of being good in the League

Wonder if he could be an average player if he was in Phx, Gsw or Ny system. He already doesnt play D, he'll fit right in.

Solid players no doubt. They were thought to be better than they are though, either by the masses or in this case, by myself.

Ehhh fam was putting in work about 2 years ago before he had that injury, there are far more other worse players to call a bust than Mike Dunleavy.

Co-sign with just about every nominee besides LO, JR, Flip, and that Troll who posted Blake Griffin.

I dont know if I agree with you regarding Lenny Bias.  To me a bust is someone who actually made it onto the NBA hardwood and just couldnt cut it and live up to the expectations placed on him.

Steve Francis a bust??? Yeah his career went downhill in a hurry after his initial stint with Houston but for his career the dude averaged 18 pts and 6 asst and 5 rebounds.  Heck he was rookie of the year and a 3 time NBA All Star....

When I think of NBA busts I think of guys like Eric Montross, Bryant Reeves, Kwame Brown, Darko Milicic, Darius Miles, and Christian Laettner.
