    Luke Jackson should be up there IMO. Cavs notably overlooked Al Jefferson (granted, they thought they had Boozer), Josh Smith, JR Smith, Jameer Nelson, Delonte West and Anderson Varejao for Jackson, who was awful. Think, if the Cavs had Jefferson, how good they would look right about now.

    The biggest draft busts are the Bobcats. They get less value every time. They've never picked the BPA.
