    It's just so f'ing awesome that once a year we get to pick this scab.

    I like that they're going old school and bringing back the LaRue Classic.

    Luckily my Blazer fandom doesn't have those scars.

    these "all time bust" articles come out like every few weeks. Sports writers don't have much to write about.

    But I think it's a stupid list. Greg Oden was a much better player than Kandi and Brown, he just got hurt.

    Plus if you you really go backwards "all time" to the 40s, you'll find plenty of guys that never did shit.

    Meh... Wasn't like he got picked over anyone amazing. Oladipo is good but he isn't Jordan/Durant.

    The case could be made that had Jordan never "retired" from the Bulls the first time, that Olajuwon never would have won a title in Houston, and Jordan could have won 8 straight titles. The world will never know, though.

    And if the Pistons drafted Melo they would've been a dynasty.

    Would Houston then be mocked over Portland? Or was having Hakeem take them to two Finals, and then losing to the Bulls, enough to justify that pick. It's a fun hypothetical, isn't it?
