    Boozer @ 35
    Okur @ 38
    Arenas @ 31 (a fun fact. Arenas wears #0 cuz thats the number of minutes people thought he would play in his NBA career.)
    Redd @ 43
    Lewis @ 32
    Mobely @ 41

    talk about bad scouting...I'd take that team anyday, let alone let them sit till he 2nd round.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting urbannomad23:</div><div class="quote_post">who is that smith guy on the bucks check him out that was a laugh! haah. and Torontos pick this year! wtf! aruajo, he was a late 1st rounder. we could've gotten IGGY for all i care. that makes me so mad.</div>



    you're crazy. Hoffa could be very good if given a chance...check out his last few games.


    And to the people saying Sam Bowie thats not fair. If not for his injury he could of been a great great hall of fame player. We never got a chance to see it though.
    Pick goes to Kandi Man.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Need4Sheed:</div><div class="quote_post">I got 2 being the 76ers fan I am.

    Shawn Bradley and Sharone Wright if anyone remembers. Talk about lottery pick wastes.</div>


    another example of a player that could of been good...but had some problems and injuries. Wright wasnt that bad a pick in my opinion...it could of worked out well.

    was pervis ellison a lottery pick? he never really gottoshine in the pros.

    and another one, len bias, 2nd overall 1986, im not really sure. He wasn't a bad player, he just blew his chance by dying due to a drug overdose maybe while celebrating his getting drafted. boston got unlucky

    Yeah he should have stayed at UNC another 1 or 2 years. That decision killed his career. I was really rooting for him. He was one of my favorite college players. [​IMG]

    ^Da_Future_2K5, you can't really say that. Darko is still very young and is yet to prove himself. He plays on a championship team in which he gets not burn. How can you say that?

    Sam Bowie. I bet they're still kicking themselves for not choosing Michael Jordan!

    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]^Your friend is lying, uninformed, or crazy. There is no way that a deal like that will go down. It's not even worth commenting about because it is so crazy.

    Btw, welcome to JustBBall [​IMG]

    One of two things:
    -Your friend is lying.
    -Mitch Kupchak lost his mind.

    Dude! this was like when we actually drafted him a week or so after ibelieve... everyone was jumping on the hate aruajo bandwagon. now i know that he was unfit the whole goddam time. now we put him in and he does ok, time to time. i guess i jumped the gun [​IMG] hopefully he will be a good 10-10 player in the league, or more.

    well.. just by seeing him miss that dunk last year, i literally laughed my ass off, he hasnt shown me anything, sure hes young but at least show signs of being good, he looks lost on the court and plays horrible whenever he does get to play.

    I say Sam Bowie, but Portland drafted someone in the 70s that was equally bad, if not worse than Bowie with the number one overall selection, I just can't remember his name. I remember that his career PPG average was a hair over five.

    Dude that was a deep draft year too. Fuller isn't even in the league anymore.
