    umm u actually have to play in game time to be considered a bust... like wright was a bust cuz he got the opportunity to play, and he got opportunities to play with kidd, VC, and RJ... i mean kidd alone should be able to help your game, but it didnt... wright never had the confidence within himself to be a good player in the NBA... he seemed lost...


    BIGGEST BUST of all in any sport... RYAN LEAF...

    Interesting. He isn't saying that he'll pull out or refuse to sign with the team that picks him, but that he'll start working out for other teams. Sounds like his earlier statements were just a bluff after all.

    If he gets his commitment from the Nets or Knicks, it won't be a bluff.

    He wants to play in the NY area.

    It appears that the part about him preferrring to play in the NY area wasn't a bluff, but the part about going back to Italy if another team picked him was.

    I wouldn't call it a bluff. I mean, it's not Monday yet. Him saying it before this "deadline" means things got misunderstood.
