Best/Worst draft pick your NBA team has ever made

[mastermind]

best: Wes Unseld

worst: I can name about 30
Kenny Green selected one pick ahead of Karl Malone
Kwame Brown
Jared Jeffries
Jan Vesely (looking like it)
Labradford Smith


I'll stop there.

 

[K-ZOE]

Do 2nd round picks count? What yall know bout that good Maciej Lampe??

 

[Majestic Pape]

Dennis Rodman
Darko Milicic

How was/is Dennis Rodman a better pick than Isiah Thomas... or Grant Hill?

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Best- Chris Mullin

Worst- Todd Fuller

We took Fuller instead of Kobe.......enough said.

 

[Ivan Trillwater.]

Best: Wade

Worst: Beasley although he was solid for those 2 years, I would've preferred Love or even Westbrook

But it's all good because we got the gawd Mario Chalmers in the second round and got Bosh and LBJ 2 years later

Then we ended up getting Beasley back this year anyway

Dennis Rodman in the second round is better than Grant hill in the first, based on their performance and achievements in detroit. Hell, IMO, Dennis Rodman career >>> Grant Hill.

Isiah Thomas, well, that was just an oversight. Clearly he is a better pick than Rodman . I WILL say, that rodman in the second is ALMOST as good of a value pick as Zeke as pick 2 but not really.

 

[beenz]

best is obviously

worse is probably jay williams given he was the #2 pick overall. marcus fizer gotta be up there as one of the worst as well at #4.

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

Best is easily Wade.


We've had some misses throughout the years, Michael Beasley certainly comes to mind. As does the Harold Miner pick. And Wayne Simien. And Willie Burton; especially since he went to the Sixers afterward and dropped 53 points worth of ether on us.

This thread isn't fair to Heat fans, they've only been fans of their franchise for less than 10 years. How are the supposed to be able to recall all the bad picks?

 

[Da_Eggman]

Best: Dwyane Wade
Worst: Beasley as of right now
but as a complete total bust Wayne Simienhttp://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/beaslmi01.html

Check the stats, Golden State has been in the top 10 in attendance in the NBA for the last 20 years which is why we're acknowledged as having the best fanbase in the league. Who else pack 19,000 in an arena when their team went over 10 years without making the playoffs?

The Heat Arena stay looking empty even when they're winning. It was horrible when they were losing. We lost for over a decade and still had the top attendance in the league without a franchise player from 95-2009.
