Top 10 draft Bust This is a pretty thoughtful list. I don't see Darko on there though, so feel free to discredit it.
From his draft class, Darko as No. 2 pick (Bron, Wade, Bosh, Carmela, etc..)is a bust at the moment, period. Anyway, he is still 21 and I hope he improves and wish him well. But more importantly, I wish the Pistons reach at least the conference finals every year until Darko retires from the league and beyond.
Currently... I dunno...Kwame Brown? Dunleavy? I'm sure there's more...but who cares? They're probably unwatchable. Chauncey=bust huh??? Maybe initial bust...but certainly not one now.
I assume TaShawn meant "which top picks who were busts for the team that drafted them are starting for different teams now."
By that definition, Darko is a bust, unless Orlando misses the playoffs, we get the best unprotected pick possible, and draft some stud. Still possible, especially how bad Orlando's guards are, and Hedo getting worse and worse after each game.
I'll take that bet, but my money is on Dupree. He's one of the quickest and more athletic leapers I've seen in a Piston's uniform in a long time. Anyone else remember that dunk he put down in the preseason about 2-3 years ago against the Nuggets and Melo at the Carrierdome? It may have even been 4 years ago in Melo and Darko's rookie preseason. It was a vicious dunk OVER SOMEONE right down the middle of the paint. It was lightning quick and just plain awesome.
