Brad Sellers was another #1 that didnt do too great. scorede 20ppg in his senior year. He started out okay in the pros but when the playoffs came he was a no show. I think he averaged about 8 ppg over his years with us and about 4ppg in the playoffs.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting SP23:</div><div class="quote_post"> I guess you could put Curry and Chandler because we expected a lot more out of them, and since they were the #2 and #4 picks.</div> A little off topic, but Curry works out at the Lifetime by my house and he is still overweight. Not only that, but he rents out a court to play once or twice a week with his friends and he sits and shoots 3 pointers... what a waste. But back to the busts... Khalid Al-Amin should have never been a pick. Hitting a clutch shot in a college championship game doesn't translate into an NBA career... remember Tyus Edny for UCLA? Do you remember his NBA career? Anyway, I didn't think much was expected out of him. I think the biggest bust may have been Chandler, not that he wasn't a good player, but for the all the upside, he never panned out like his potential showed. I feel like that makes him a bigger disappointment that E. Rob and Fizer. Also... Dickey. Simpkins.
I agree with Eddie Robinson and Marcus Fizer. Also with Chandler and Curry not living up to their potential. Also Jay Williams with him violating his contract. I think Jamal can fit because he really didn't live up to his potential either except his contract year. We drafted Jamal and Marcus in the 2000 NBA Draft. Also in that draft we drafted Dalibor Bagaric with the 24th pick. It was a late first round pick and we probably didn't know how Primoz Brezec, who was taken 27th, would turn out but this guys did nothing with us. I don't know what his potential was but he could have done better than the stats he put up with us.

So I'm guessing this must not be true then: http://www.justbball.com/forums/showthread.php?t=56906 It's good news for the Bulls, because I would love the Knicks to be on top of the lotto, and then we could switch picks with them.
Actually Nooga is right. I've only been back in this area for a while and I've seen Eddy Curry twice now. He does also have a Lifetime fitness membership because people have also seen him at the one in Orland Park. He was also still overweight, but he's looking better than before.
these threads make me so angry. Almost all of everyone elses players were at least descent compared to the twolves ones
John Starks didn't want to play for our team. Yeah we did suck that year but the guy didn't want to play for us. Also Dikembe Mutombo. Another guy who didn't want to play for us. But he never put on a Bulls so I don't know if he counts.
Anyone remember Mark Randall? Picked in the 1st round by the Bulls, 26th overall in 1991 never averaged more than three points a game. In addition, Dicky Simpkins, picked in the 1st round, 21st overall in 1994, averaged over three points only once in his eight year career. Two more guys Corey Blount and Jeff Sanders?
